The vascular strain is very high during heavy handgrip exercise, but the intensity and
kinetics to reach peak blood flow, and peak oxygen uptake, are uncertain. We included 9 …

We hypothesized that forearm blood flow (FBF) during moderate intensity dynamic exercise
would meet the demands of the exercise and that postexercise FBF would quickly recover. In …

This study compared the brachial artery blood flow (Q̇ BA) and microvascular oxygen
delivery responses during handgrip exercise above vs. below critical force (CF; the isometric …

To evaluate the local circulatory changes that accompany chronic localized work, we studied
the effects of a 4-wk handgrip work protocol on maximal forearm work-related blood flow (ml …

To test the hypothesis that sex influences forearm blood flow (FBF) during exercise, 15
women and 16 men of similar age [women 24.3±4.0 (SD) vs. men 24.9±4.5 yr] but different …

The purpose of this study was to determine whether blood flow (BF) and vascular resistance
(VR) are controlled differently in the nonactive arm and leg during submaximal rhythmic …

Assessment of forearm oxygen uptake (O2) during handgrip exercise is a keenly
investigated concept for observing small muscle mass metabolism. Although a combination …

Maximal strength training (MST) improves work efficiency. However, since blood flow is
greatly dictated by muscle contractions in arms during exercise and vascular conductance is …

The contribution of endothelium‐derived nitric oxide (NO) to exercise hyperaemia remains
controversial. Disparate findings may, in part, be explained by different shear stress stimuli …
