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...

Effects of exercise training using resistance bands on glycaemic control and strength in type 2 diabetes mellitus: a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials
Resistance exercise using free weights or weight machines improves glycaemic control and strength in people with type 2 diabetes. Resistance band training is potentially less expensive and more accessible, but...

Inflammatory responses of older Firefighters to intermittent exercise in the heat
Repeated strenuous work in the heat may predispose firefighters to augmented immune responses and inflammation. This study examined the immune responses in 12 older Firefighters (FF) and 12 older Non-Firefight...

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...

Age and androgen-deprivation therapy on exercise outcomes in men with prostate cancer
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of age (≤65 years or >65 years) and androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT, presence or absence) as factors that may predict changes in body composition and fitne...
