This review focuses on how blood flow to contracting skeletal muscles is regulated during
exercise in humans. The idea is that blood flow to the contracting muscles links oxygen in …

Aerobic exercise training leads to cardiovascular changes that markedly increase aerobic
power and lead to improved endurance performance. The functionally most important …

The introduction of duplex Doppler ultrasound almost half a century ago signified a
revolutionary advance in the ability to assess limb blood flow in humans. It is now widely …

Frailty is a functional status that precedes disability and is characterized by decreased
functional reserve and increased vulnerability. In addition to disability, the frailty phenotype …

Nitric Oxide (NO) is a potent signaling molecule involved in the regulation of various cellular
mechanisms and pathways under normal and pathological conditions. NO production, its …

Enhancing and protecting testosterone production is one target for many scientists because
of its crucial role as a primary sex hormone in males. Several in vivo trials have utilized …

Three sentinel parameters of aerobic performance are the maximal oxygen uptake (), critical
power (CP) and speed of the kinetics following exercise onset. Of these, the latter is …

Step‐reduction (SR) in older adults results in muscle atrophy and an attenuated rise in
postprandial muscle protein synthesis (MPS): anabolic resistance. Knowing that resistance …

Passive exercise/movement has a long history in both medicine and physiology. Early
clinical applications of passive exercise/movement utilized pneumatic and direct limb …

One of the risk factors for developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) is aging. In the elderly
endothelial dysfunction occurs as altered endothelial ability to regulate hemostasis, vascular …
