Evaluation of leg symmetry in muscle oxygen saturation during submaximal to maximal cycling exercise. [PDF]

Eur J Sport Sci
Abstract It is unclear whether physiological responses, such as muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2), can be considered symmetrical during cycling. This knowledge has important practical implications for both training and performance assessment. The aim of this study was to determine whether oxygenation profiles in the three active muscles of both legs were

Residual effects of 12 weeks of power‐oriented resistance training plus high‐intensity interval training on muscle dysfunction, systemic oxidative damage, and antioxidant capacity after 10 months of training cessation in older people with COPD

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 33, Issue 9, Page 1661-1676, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Objective This study aimed to assess the residual effects of a 12‐week concurrent training program (power training + high‐intensity interval training) in older adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods A total of 21 older adults with COPD [intervention (INT), n = 8; control (CON), n = 13; 76.9 ± 6.8 years] were assessed
