Augmented supraspinal fatigue following constant-load cycling in the heat
Goodall, S.; Howatson, G.; Charlton, K.; Hignett, C.; Prichard, J. (Wiley, 2015)The development of central fatigue is prominent follow- ing exercise-induced hyperthermia, but the contribution of supraspinal fatigue is not well understood. Seven endurance-trained cyclists (mean ± SD peak O 2 uptake, 62.0 ... -
Corticospinal responses of resistance-trained and un-trained males during dynamic muscle contractions
Tallent, J.; Goodall, S.; Hortobágyi, T.; St Clair Gibson, A.; Howatson, G. (ELSEVIER, 2013)Little is known regarding the modulation and the plasticity of the neural pathway interconnecting elements of the central nervous system and skeletal muscle in resistant-trained individuals. The aim of the study was to ... -
Increased cross-education of muscle strength and reduced corticospinal inhibition following eccentric strength training
Kidgell, D.J.; Howatson, G.; Frazer, A.K.; Rantalainen, T.; Ruotsalainen, I. (Elsevier, 2015)Aim: Strength training of one limb results in a substantial increase in the strength of the untrained limb, however, it remains unknown what the corticospinal responses are following either eccentric or concentric strength ... -
Montmorency tart cherries (Prunus cerasus L.) modulate vascular function acutely, in the absence of improvement in cognitive performance
Keane, K.M.; Howatson, G.; Haskell-Ramsay, C.F.; Veasey, R.C. (Cambridge Univ Press, 2016)Cerebral blood volume and metabolism of oxygen decline as part of human ageing, and this has been previously shown to be related to cognitive decline. There is some evidence to suggest that polyphenol-rich foods can play ... -
Neuromuscular response differences to power vs strength back squat exercise in elite athletes
Brandon, R.; Howatson, G.; Strachan, F.; Hunter, A.M. (Wiley, 2015)The study’s aim was to establish the neuromuscular responses in elite athletes during and following maximal ‘explosive’ regular back squat exercise at heavy, moder- ate, and light loads. Ten elite track and field ...
