Sub-Maximal Exchange Flow over a Sill with Barotropic Forcing
… and the tidal forcing. Exchange flow can be “maximal” or “sub-maximal”. The flow is “maximal” if raising the interface in the dense basin (presumably by modifying light water to be dense) does not further increase the exchange flow through the strait. While many ocean straits are usually …

The effects of oestradiol administration on energy metabolism during prolonged exercise in amenorrheic athletes
… administration on energy metabolism during sub-maximal exercise were examined by administering oestradiol using a transdermal oestradiol therapy system in five amenorrheic athletes. The subjects completed two exercise trials for a period of two hours. Prior to each exercise trial they …

The regulation of exercise performance by a complex anticipatory system
… in the heat despite core temperatures that were sub-maximal and not different from those measured in the cool condition. Significantly, the reduction in power output was associated with a lower IEMG activity in the active muscle, suggesting that the brain recruited less muscle even at sub-maximal …

The Effect of Exercise on Mechanical Pressure Pain Threshold in the Presence and Absence of Delayed-Onset Muscle Soreness
… sensitivity (hypoalgesia) during and following maximal and sub-maximal isometric exercise (Koltyn, 2002). Research on fibromyalgia patients however has shown the same exercises increase pain sensitivity (hyperalgesia) (Staud, Robinson, & Price, 2005; Kosek, Ekholm, & Hansson, 1996). The purpose …

Older people’s fitness test, A feasibility study to develop a fitness test for older people that can measure variations in cardiorespiratory fitness.
… is to investigate the feasibility of designing a sub-maximal fitness test for older people that can be used without causing undue discomfort to the participant, is appropriate in multi-settings and does not require expensive equipment. The secondary aim is to evaluate the sub-maximal test to …

Anaerobic and performance adaptations to a “live high–train low” approach using simulated altitude exposure
… (a) anaerobic and/or aerobic capacity (VO<sub>2peak</sub>) in trained cyclists (n = 10) 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 …

Exercise capacity with special reference to type 2 diabetes
… with T2D in study IV and V. The performance of a maximal incremental cycle test in sedentary healthy male subjects was highly affected by lower extremity muscular strength and muscular endurance (Study I). Also upper body muscular strength correlated to exercise capacity as measured by cycle …

The Effects of VO2max on Levels of Testosterone as Males Age
… in healthy men. Methods: A total of 45 male subjects of various ethnicities aged 20-62 years participated in this study. Resting blood samples were collected, after which subjects were on cycle ergometer. Subjects started the trail and complete four three-minute heart rate adjusted …

Determinants of Elite Rowing Performance: Implications for Developing Rowers
… across gender and competitive level, with submaximal aerobic capacity (power at 4 mmol・l-1 lactate; W4mmol・l -1) being the only variable to significantly correlate with 2,000m performance in all squads. Results were further analysed using bivariate regression to examine the degree of shared …

Evaluation of Circumferential Ankle Pressure as an Ergonomic Intervention to Maintain Balance Perturbed by Localized Muscular Fatigue of the Ankle Joint
… males and seven females) performed fatiguing sub-maximal isotonic plantar flexion exercises on an isokinetic dynamometer, in the absence and presence of a pressure cuff (60 mm Hg) used to apply CAP. Proprioceptive acuity (PA) was determined using a passive-active joint position sense test, …

The Relationship Between Integrated Electromyography and Torque at Varying Joint Angles and Intensities of The Static Contraction of the Rectus Femoris Muscle in Normal Female Subjects
… tested in a two part study using thirty female subjects. For the first phase, the subject was required to perform a maximal static exercise of knee extension for 10 seconds at 90 degrees, 60 degrees, 30 degrees, and 10 degrees of knee flexion. Simultaneous readings of torque and IEMG were …

Potassium-free and potassium-containing electrolytes affect plasma ions and acid-base status of endurance horses
… increases lactate production and glucose during sub-maximal exercise. A potassium-free electrolyte supply caused higher plasma [Ca++] during exercise. Higher sodium supply in the potassium-free electrolytes improved hydration during exercise. These studies show that potassium should supplemented …

PHYSIOLOGICAL ADAPTATIONS TO HEAT ACCLIMATION; REPERCUSSIONS ON CYCLING PERFORMANCE
… Given that we only observed an increase in maximal aerobic capacity in the heat after 9 heat acclimation, but improvements in maximal aerobic power and time trial performance in all three environments, it is possible that heat acclimation either led to enhancement of anaerobic energy supply, …

Work of breathing in exercise and disease
… must therefore be on developing non-invasive, sub-maximal techniques that allow participants to enter into a steady state of respiration and how this can be assessed. Two techniques were investigated; Respiratory Endurance (as the inspiratory work of breathing) and Tidal Breathing Flow Profile, …

Post fatigue changes in the stability of cervical spine
… work demands, such as sustained static postures, sub-maximal repetitive arm exertions, and forceful arm exertions are consistently identified as possible risk factors for cervical spine MSDs. Most of these exertions induce neck muscle fatigue which may affect the stability of the cervical spine. A …
