Physiological comparison of intensity-controlled, isocaloric intermittent and continuous exercise†

VO2 fluctuations are argued to be an important mechanism underpinning chronic adaptations following interval training. We compared the effect of exercise modality, continuous vs. intermittent realized at a same intensity, on electrical muscular …

Underwater near-infrared spectroscopy can measure training adaptations in adolescent swimmers

The development of an underwater near-infrared spectroscopy (uNIRS) device has enabled previously unattainable measurements of peripheral muscle hemodynamics and oxygenation to be taken within the natural aquatic environment. The purposes of this …

Differences in muscle oxygenation, perceived fatigue and recovery between long-track and short-track speed skating

Due to the technical nature of speed skating, that is affecting physiological mechanisms such as oxygenation and blood flow, this sport provides a unique setting allowing us to uncover novel mechanistic insights of the physiological response to …
