In most daily activities related to work or leisure, the energy for muscle work substantially
comes from oxidative metabolism. Functional limitations or impairments of this metabolism …

In the last decade the study of the human brain and muscle energetics underwent a radical
change, thanks to the progressive introduction of noninvasive techniques, including near …

Background: Resistance exercise leads to net muscle protein accretion through a synergistic
interaction of exercise and feeding. Proteins from different sources may differ in their ability …

The purpose of the study was to compare muscle oxygenation as measured by two portable,
wireless near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) devices under resting and dynamic conditions. A …

During exercise regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF), as blood velocity in major cerebral
arteries and also blood flow in the internal carotid artery increase, suggesting an increase in …

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of l-citrulline (Cit) and l-arginine (Arg)
supplementation on nitric oxide (NO) biomarkers, pulmonary O 2 uptake (V̇ o 2) kinetics …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was utilized to gain insights into the kinetics of oxidative
metabolism during exercise transitions. Ten untrained young men were tested on a cycle …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was initiated in 1977 by Jobsis as a simple, noninvasive
method for measuring the presence of oxygen in muscle and other tissues in vivo. This …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been shown to be one of the tools that can measure
oxygenation in muscle and other tissues in vivo. This review paper highlights the progress …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to monitor muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2) is rapidly
expanding into applied sports settings. However, the technology is limited due to its inability …
