Supramaximal Eccentric Training for Alpine Ski Racing—Strength Training with the Lifter

Applied Sciences, 2020
Eccentric muscular work plays a large role in alpine ski racing. Training with supramaximal eccentric loads (SME) is highly effective to improve eccentric strength but potentially dangerous.

Weighted cart pull: A novel outcome measure for sustained motor function in mice

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sarcopenia, the pathological age‐related decline in muscle mass and strength, compromises independence and quality of life in older adults. Currently, no effective treatments are available. To enhance translational research using aged mouse models, we developed and validated the weighted cart pull (WCP) as a novel assessment of sustained motor

Creatine Supplementation Improves Phosphagen Energy Pathway During Supramaximal Effort, but Does Not Improve Anaerobic Capacity or Performance

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
This study aimed to investigate the effects of short-duration creatine monohydrate supplementation on anaerobic capacity (AC), anaerobic energy pathways, and time-to-exhaustion during high-intensity running.

An Internet Approach for Engineering Student Exercises [PDF]

arXiv, 2012
An approach for engineering student exercises using the Internet is described. In this approach, for a given exercise, each student receives the same problem, but with different data. The exercise content can be static or dynamic, and the dynamic form can be timeless or real-time.

Neuromuscular mechanisms for the fast decline in rate of force development with muscle disuse – a narrative review

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Muscle unloading induces declines in muscle function, particularly in maximal and explosive strength. The decline in explosive strength (quantified as rate of force development, RFD) is greater than the decline in maximal strength (quantified as maximal force, Fmax).

Activation of TRPA1 and TRPM3 triggers Ca2+ waves in central terminals of sensory neurons and facilitates synaptic activity in the spinal dorsal horn

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) and melastatin 3 (TRPM3) activation regulate pre‐ and postsynaptic Ca2+ concentrations and synaptic activity in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Left: a model that describes how activation of TRPA1 and TRPM3 channels induces an influx of Ca2+ in the central terminals of sensory ...

Predicting Exercise Adherence and Physical Activity in Older Adults Based on Tablet Engagement: A Post-hoc Study [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Sufficient physical activity can prolong the ability of older adults to live inde-pendently. Community-based exercise programs can be enhanced by regularly performing exercises at home. To support such a home-based exercise program, a blended intervention was developed that combined the use of a tablet application with a personal coach.

The effects of local vibration inducing a tonic vibration reflex or movement illusion on acute modulations of corticospinal excitability

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Local vibration (LV) was applied to the tendon of the flexor carpi radialis (FCR) muscle using the same vibration parameters (6 min, 80 Hz frequency, 2 mm amplitude) but with a different visual focus between the two experiments: on the vibrated hand in Experiment 1, or the EMG activity of the vibrated muscle in Experiment 2 (with

Beetroot Juice Does Not Enhance Supramaximal Intermittent Exercise Performance in Elite Endurance Athletes

Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 2019
Objective: Nitrate (NO3−)-rich beetroot juice (BR) is recognized as an ergogenic supplement that improves exercise tolerance during submaximal to maximal intensity exercise in recreational and competitive athletes.

Volitional exercise elicits physiological and molecular improvements in the severe D2.mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study investigated the effects of volitional exercise on muscle health in the more severe D2.mdx model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). We showed that 8–10 weeks of a relatively high volume of voluntary wheel running (VWR) in D2.mdx animals augmented select muscle mass and normalized ex vivo muscle force compared to ...
