    Interindividual Differences in Trainability and Moderators of Cardiorespiratory Fitness, Waist Circumference, and Body Mass Responses: A Large-Scale Individual Participant Data Meta-analysis

    Although many studies have assumed variability reflects variance caused by exercise training, few studies have examined whether interindividual differences in trainability are present following exercise traini...

    Impact of uncomplicated controlled hypertension on thermoregulation during exercise-heat stress

    Exercise is promoted for management of hypertension and as a general healthy behavior, but environmental conditions are seldom considered in these recommendations. Hypertension may affect skin blood flow and s...

    Exploring Differences in Cardiorespiratory Fitness Response Rates Across Varying Doses of Exercise Training: A Retrospective Analysis of Eight Randomized Controlled Trials

    This study tested the hypothesis that greater mean changes in cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), in either the absence or presence of reduced interindividual variability, explain larger CRF response rates follow...

    Cardiac autonomic modulation in type 1 diabetes during exercise-heat stress

    Cardiac autonomic modulation, as assessed by heart rate variability (HRV), is independently attenuated by both type 1 diabetes (T1D) and exercise-heat stress, although their combined effects remain unclear. We...

    Does metformin modify the effect on glycaemic control of aerobic exercise, resistance exercise or both?

    Some previous studies suggested that metformin might attenuate the effects of exercise on glycaemia or fitness. We therefore examined whether metformin use influenced changes in glycaemic control, fitness, bod...
