Abstract Older adults often suffer from reduced physical capability relative to young adults, in part due to impaired muscle function. This study investigated the ergogenic effects of passive thigh heating on knee extensor torque production in healthy older versus younger adults.

Abstract The aim of this work was to assess the effect of heat exposure on cardiorespiratory and haematological responses during de‐training and re‐training. Nineteen men (33.8 ± 2.7 years; 182 ± 5.7 cm, 84.4 ± 9.3 kg) completed 4 weeks of pre‐training followed by heat exposure (HEAT; n = 9) or control (CON; n = 10).

Sex differences in cerebral blood flow and cardiac function in response to exercise in the heat
Abstract We investigated the effect of exercising in hot conditions on cerebral blood flow and systolic left ventricular (LV) function in males and females, to explore sex differences. The experimental condition consisted of walking on a treadmill at 5 km/h and 2% incline, inside a heat chamber at 40°C (50% relative humidity), for 90 min.

Understanding stressors in combination: a continued challenge for human performance
Abstract Personnel within occupational employment (e.g., military/emergency services) are exposed to various stressors concurrently including psychological, cognitive, physical and environmental. Historically, stressors have been considered and studied in isolation which is not representative of reality.

Influence of low‐dose dopamine on exercise in fibrosing interstitial lung disease
ABSTRACT Fibrotic interstitial lung disease (FILD) is associated with dyspnoea and exercise intolerance. In other cardiorespiratory conditions, heightened carotid body (CB) chemoreflex sensitivity is associated with reduced exercise capacity. We tested the hypothesis that CB chemoreflex inhibition would improve exercise endurance time (EET) and reduce ...
