This study presents the novel finding that 4-wk resistance training (RT) focused specifically on the lower limbs can reduce exertional dyspnea during constant-load cycling, improve exercise tolerance, and reduce intrinsic fatigability of the quadrice

Electrically evoked contractions provide insight into intrinsic neuromuscular fatigability and also represent a valuable technique to maintain muscle mass in a clinical setting. To appropriately investigate intrinsic fatigability and design optimal s

Transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TES) is used to activate muscles when volitional capacity is impaired but potential benefits are limited by rapid force loss (fatigue). Most TES fatigue protocols employ constant-frequency trains, with stimuli a

PURPOSE To investigate possible sex-related differences in group III/IV muscle afferent feedback with isometric fatigue, we aimed to assess the effect of a sustained submaximal elbow extensor contraction on motoneuronal excitability (cervicomedullary

Data are scant on sex-related differences for electrically evoked contractions, which assess intrinsic contractile properties while limiting spinal and supraspinal adaptations to mitigate fatigue. Furthermore, the few studies that exist use stimulus

KEY POINTS Acute exposure and acclimatization to hypoxia are associated with an impairment and partial recovery, respectively, of the capability of the central nervous system to drive muscles during prolonged efforts. Motoneurones play a vital role i

Elbow flexor force steadiness is less with the forearm pronated (PRO) compared with neutral (NEU) or supinated (SUP) and may relate to neural excitability. Although not tested in a force steadiness paradigm, lower spinal and cortical excitability was

Based on H-reflex data, spinal mechanisms are proposed to be responsible for the first 50–80 ms of the transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)-induced silent period. As several methodological issues can compromise H-reflex validity as a measure of

New Findings What is the central question of this study? Does the induction of a model of lung injury affect the expiratory time constant (τE) in terms of either total duration or morphology? Does ventilation with gases of different densities alter

It is uncertain if sex influences central fatigue because the reduction in voluntary activation (VA) has been reported as not different between the sexes for elbow flexors (EF) but greater in males compared with females for knee extensors. This dispa
