Skeletal muscle fatigue is defined as the fall of force or power in response to contractile
activity. Both the mechanisms of fatigue and the modes used to elicit it vary tremendously …

Fatigue causes deleterious effects to physical and mental health of human being and may
cause loss of lives. Therefore, the adverse effects of fatigue on individuals and the society …

Abstract Maximal oxygen (O2) uptake (V ̇ O 2 max ̇V_O_2max) is an important parameter
with utility in health and disease. However, the relative importance of O2 transport and …

As a part of the aging process, motor unit reorganization occurs in which small motoneurons
reinnervate predominantly fast-twitch muscle fibers that have lost their innervation. We …

It remains unclear why some patients develop heart failure without evidence of structural
damage. One theory relates to impaired myocardial energetics and ventricular-arterial …

Whereas MRI determines the spatial distribution of water (and lipid) protons across a region
of interest, MRS measures the chemical content of MR-visible nuclei, which include the …

Patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) benefit from muscle training with functional electrical
stimulation (FES). For safety reasons and to optimize training outcome, the fatigue state of …

The main objective of the maximum finger strength workouts is to improve your ability to grip
the holds with your hands. This ability has been observed as closely related to maximum …

When you climb and grab a handhold, your finger flexors work in isometric contraction, since
they're applying an amount of force with its fibers remaining still, not shortening nor …

Functional electrical stimulation (FES) supported exercises aid purposeful muscle
contractions to restore the lost motor functions with associated health benefits in individuals …
