The capacity for human exercise performance can be enhanced with prolonged exercise
training, whether it is endurance-or strength-based. The ability to adapt through exercise …

In recent years, there has been a significant expansion in female participation in endurance
(road and trail) running. The often reported sex differences in maximal oxygen uptake (V …

Running economy (RE) is considered an important physiological measure for endurance
athletes, especially distance runners. This review considers 1) how RE is defined and …

Background The present article systematically reviews recent literature on the in vivo
adaptation of asymptomatic human tendons following increased chronic mechanical …

Despite an intuitive relationship between technique and both running economy (RE) and
performance, and the diverse techniques used by runners to achieve forward locomotion …

Background Middle-and long-distance running performance is constrained by several
important aerobic and anaerobic parameters. The efficacy of strength training (ST) for …

Running economy (RE) represents a complex interplay of physiological and biomechanical
factors that is typically defined as the energy demand for a given velocity of submaximal …

The purpose of this study was to compare running economy across three submaximal
speeds expressed as both oxygen cost (ml· kg− 1· km− 1) and the energy required to cover a …

The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether increased tendon-aponeurosis
stiffness and contractile strength of the triceps surae (TS) muscle-tendon units induced by …

The economy of running has traditionally been quantified from the mass-specific oxygen
uptake; however, because fuel substrate usage varies with exercise intensity, it is more …
