Characteristics of a population of commuter cyclists in the Netherlands: perceived barriers and facilitators in the personal, social and physical environment

International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 2010
Background Daily cycling to work has been shown to improve physical performance and health in men and women. It is very common in the Netherlands: the most recent data show that one quarter of commuting journeys are by bicycle.

Effect of detraining on bone and muscle tissue in subjects with chronic spinal cord injury after a period of electrically-stimulated cycling: a small cohort study [PDF]

, 2009
Objective: To investigate adaptive changes in bone and muscle parameters in the paralysed limbs after de-training or reduced functional electrical stimulation (FES) induced cycling following high-volume FES-cycling in chronic spinal cord injury (SCI ...

Clinical relevance and treatment possibilities of bipolar rapid cycling [PDF]

, 2002
Bipolar rapid cycling (RC) is defined as 4 or more affective episodes within 1 year. It has been postulated that RC is related to a poor response to lithium, to the same extent as mixed episodes or other atypical symptoms of the illness.

Bone mineral density and content during weight cycling in female rats: effects of dietary amylase-resistant starch

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2008
Background Although there is considerable evidence for a loss of bone mass with weight loss, the few human studies on the relationship between weight cycling and bone mass or density have differing results.

Distribution of Culturable Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacteria in Soil Aggregates and Their Potential for Phosphorus Acquisition

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Deciphering distribution patterns of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) and phosphorus-cycling-related genes in soils is important to evaluate phosphorus (P) transformation.

The effect of cycling intensity on cycling economy during seated and standing cycling [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Previous research has shown that cycling in a standing position reduces cycling economy compared with seated cycling. It is unknown whether the cycling intensity moderates the reduction in cycling economy while standing. PURPOSE: The aim

The effectiveness of community-based cycling promotion: findings from the Cycling Connecting Communities project in Sydney, Australia

International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 2010
Background Encouraging cycling is an important way to increase physical activity in the community. The Cycling Connecting Communities (CCC) Project is a community-based cycling promotion program that included a range of community engagement and social ...

Mass community cycling events: Who participates and is their behaviour influenced by participation?

International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity, 2006
Background Participation in mass physical activity events may be a novel approach for encouraging inactive or low active adults to trial an active behaviour. The public health applicability of this strategy has not been investigated thoroughly.

Exercise intensity-dependent effects of arm and leg-cycling on cognitive performance.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Physiological responses to arm and leg-cycling are different, which may influence psychological and biological mechanisms that influence post-exercise cognitive performance.

Differences in oxygen uptake but equivalent energy expenditure between a brief bout of cycling and running

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2006
Background We examined aerobic and anaerobic exercise energy expenditure and excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) between a 250 Watt, 1-minute bout of cycling and uphill treadmill running.
