Mechanical muscle properties and intermuscular coordination in maximal and submaximal cycling: theoretical and practical implications [PDF]

, 2014
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel UniversityThe ability of an individual to perform a functional movement is determined by a range of mechanical properties including the force and power producing ...

The influence of training status, age, and muscle fiber type on cycling efficiency and endurance performance. [PDF]

, 2013
The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of age, training status, and muscle fiber-type distribution on cycling efficiency. Forty men were recruited into one of four groups: young and old trained cyclists, and young and old untrained ...

Cycling [PDF]

, 2006
The purpose of this article was to establish whether previously reported oxygen-to-mass ratios, used to predict flat and hill-climbing cycling performance, extend to similar power-to-mass ratios incorporating other, often quick and convenient measures of

Genotypic variation in grain P loading across diverse rice growing environments and implications for field P balances

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
More than 60% of phosphorus (P) taken up by rice (Oryza spp) is accumulated in the grains at harvest and hence exported from fields, leading to a continuous removal of P.

Comparison of stimulation patterns for FES-cycling using measures of oxygen cost and stimulation cost [PDF]

, 2006
<b>Aim</b><p></p> The energy efficiency of FES-cycling in spinal cord injured subjects is very much lower than that of normal cycling, and efficiency is dependent upon the parameters of muscle stimulation.

Representations of cycling in metropolitan newspapers - changes over time and differences between Sydney and Melbourne, Australia

BMC Public Health, 2010
Background Cycling is important for health, transport, environmental and economic reasons. Newspaper reporting of cycling reflects and can influence public and policy maker attitudes towards resource allocation for cycling and cycling infrastructure, yet

Gender differences in recreational and transport cycling: a cross-sectional mixed-methods comparison of cycling patterns, motivators, and constraints

International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 2012
Background Gender differences in cycling are well-documented. However, most analyses of gender differences make broad comparisons, with few studies modeling male and female cycling patterns separately for recreational and transport cycling. This modeling

Acute post-exercise recovery strategies in Cycling: A Review [PDF]

, 2018
Cycling events often include multiple races a day or racing over consecutive days. Congested competition schedules and increased training load have led to the implementation of recovery strategies; with the goal of alleviating postexercise fatigue and ...

On your bike! a cross-sectional study of the individual, social and environmental correlates of cycling to school

International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 2011
Background Active school transport (AST) has declined rapidly in recent decades. While many studies have examined walking, cycling to school has received very little attention.
