Water covers over 70% of the earth, has varying depths and temperatures and contains
much of the earth's resources. Head-out water immersion (HOWI) or submersion at various …

Severe‐intensity constant‐work‐rate exercise results in the attainment of maximal oxygen
uptake, but the muscle metabolic milieu at the limit of tolerance (Tlim) for such exercise …

The activities of daily living typically occur at metabolic rates below the maximum rate of
aerobic energy production. Such activity is characteristic of the nonsteady state, where …

Recent research has suggested that dietary nitrate (NO3−) supplementation might alter the
physiological responses to exercise via specific effects on type II muscle. Severe-intensity …

Tolerance to high-intensity constant-power (P) exercise is well described by a hyperbola
with two parameters: a curvature constant (W′) and power asymptote termed “critical …

Despite its crucial importance, scientists interested in the limitations of human physical
performance have only just started to give the field of oxygen uptake kinetics the attention it …

Single muscle fibre metabolites and pulmonary oxygen uptake (V̇ O 2) were measured
during moderate and intense, sub-maximal exercise to test the hypothesis that additional …

Key Points The relationship between age and physiological function remains poorly defined
and there are no physiological markers that can be used to reliably predict the age of an …

The slow component of pulmonary O2 uptake (V̇o2) during constant work rate (CWR) high-
intensity exercise has been attributed to the progressive recruitment of (type II) muscle fibers …

Purpose The critical power (CP) model includes two constants: the CP and the W'[P=(W'/t)+
CP]. The W'is the finite work capacity available above CP. Power output above CP results in …
