Anaerobic and performance adaptations to a “live high–train low” approach using simulated altitude exposure
… and (b) VO<sub>2peak</sub> and/or 400m swimming performance in collegiate swimmers (n=8).</p> <p>In procedures approved by the EMU Human Subjects Review Board, cyclists performed seven cycle ergometer trials to measure maximal mean power output (MMPO<sub>4min</sub>), maximal accumulated oxygen …

Manipulating dietary protein density and its effect on training-induced muscle performance and overall health among middle-aged adults
… of aging and negatively impacts physical performance and ultimately, independence and quality of life. The underlying mechanistic cause of this age-related strength loss is likely related to alterations in overall muscle mass and neuromuscular function. It has been proposed that lifestyle …

Role of active and passive recovery in adaptations to high intensity training
… of Wingate-based HIT to bring about training adaptations, the majority of previous studies have been conducted over a relatively short timeframe (2 to 6 weeks). However, activity during recovery period, intervention duration or sprint length have been overlooked. In study 1, the dose response …

Comparison of short-term sprint interval versus traditional endurance training on metabolic adaptations in sedentary overweight/obese men
… (SIT) has been shown to induce metabolic and performance adaptations that parallel those of traditional exercise recommendations (TER), and require considerably less time commitment. However, little is known about the effectiveness of short-term SIT in sedentary overweight individuals. This …

An investigation of training transfer from strength and conditioning to athletic performance using large-scale evidence synthesis and real-world data.
… and presented to explain what magnitude of adaptations are expected following interventions; 2) through evidence synthesis work investigate influential factors to optimise prescription 3) conduct a meaningful primary investigation that addresses the key research gaps identified through the …

Heat management strategies in elite rugby sevens
… characterise the physiological, perceptual, and performance perturbations that undertaking rugby sevens specific exercise in hot and humid conditions involves. The following three experimental chapters built upon these characterisations by investigating practical, training-integrated …

Analysis of the effects of three commercially available supplements on performance, exercise induced changes and bio-markers in recreationally trained young males
… would potentiate the desired body composition, performance and recovery outcomes as claimed. Study 1 was conducted to analyse the effects of combining a 12 weeks resistance training programme with the ingestion of a commercially available carbohydrate-protein-creatine based multi-ingredient …

Soccer : physical characteristics, physical demands of match-play and effective physical conditioning
… was to examine the physical aspects of high performance soccer. As such, four interrelated studies were designed to pursue this purpose. Each study was designed to overcome certain distinct methodological limitations of previous science and football (soccer) research and build upon existing …
