After a short historical account, and a discussion of Hill and Meyerhof's theory of the
energetics of muscular exercise, we analyse steady-state rest and exercise as the condition …

The physiological determinants of high-intensity exercise tolerance are important for both
elite human performance and morbidity, mortality and disease in clinical settings. The …

Background Ongoing exercise intolerance of unclear cause following COVID‐19 infection is
well recognized but poorly understood. We investigated exercise capacity in patients …

Purpose Premature birth induces long-term sequelae on the cardiopulmonary system,
leading to reduced exercise capacity. However, the mechanisms of this functional …

We investigated effects of molecular hydrogen (H2) supplementation on acid-base status,
pulmonary gas exchange responses, and local muscle oxygenation during incremental …

Purpose The present study investigated whether larger splenic emptying augments faster
excess post-exercise O2 consumption (EPOC) following aerobic exercise cessation …

Background Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging during supine exercise at
(sub) maximal oxygen consumption (VO2) offers unique diagnostic insights. However …

This study tested the hypothesis that the respiratory compensation point (RCP) and
breakpoint in deoxygenated [heme][deoxy [heme] BP, assessed via near-infrared …

The completion of exercise in different body positions can impact the function of various
components of the oxygen delivery pathway; however, the effect of the haemodynamic …

We read with interest the paper by Gorostiaga et al. 1 entitled “Over 55 years of critical
power: Fact or artifact?”. It is our opinion, however, that the conclusions drawn by the authors …
