Cycling in the heat: performance perspectives and cerebral challenges
L Nybo - Scandinavian journal of medicine & science in sports, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Cycling performances require periods with high power output and consequently large
endogenous heat production. During cycling in temperate or cold climates, heat is mainly …

Spinal opioid receptor‐sensitive muscle afferents contribute to the fatigue‐induced increase in intracortical inhibition in healthy humans
We investigated the influence of spinal opioid receptor‐sensitive muscle afferents on cortical
changes following fatiguing unilateral knee‐extensor exercise. On separate days, seven …

Cerebral oxygenation decreases but does not impair performance during self‐paced, strenuous exercise
Aim: The reduction in cerebral oxygenation (Cox) is associated with the cessation of
exercise during constant work rate and incremental tests to exhaustion. Yet in exercises of …

Saving mental effort to maintain physical effort: a shift of activity within the prefrontal cortex in anticipation of prolonged exercise
Executive functioning and attention require mental effort. In line with the resource
conservation principle, we hypothesized that mental effort would be saved when individuals …
