Repeated, episodic bouts of skeletal muscle contraction undertaken frequently as structured
exercise training are a potent stimulus for physiological adaptation in many organs …

The health benefits of exercise are well-recognized and are observed across multiple organ
systems. These beneficial effects enhance overall resilience, healthspan and longevity. The …

Purpose The present study aimed to investigate the effects of low-intensity resistance
training with blood flow restriction (BFR resistance training) on vascular endothelial function …

Mechanical Loading. Physiol Rev 84: 649–698, 2004; 10.1152/physrev. 00031.2003.—The …

The thin lamina between the hippocampal hilus and granule cell layer, or subgranule zone
(SGZ), is an area of active proliferation within the adult hippocampus known to generate new …

Aerobic exercise training leads to cardiovascular changes that markedly increase aerobic
power and lead to improved endurance performance. The functionally most important …

We investigated the hemodynamic and hormonal responses to a short-term low-intensity
resistance exercise (STLIRE) with the reduction of muscle blood flow. Eleven untrained men …

Exercise and muscle contractions create a powerful stimulus for structural remodeling of the
vasculature. An increase in flow velocity through a vessel increases shear stress, a major …

Skeletal muscle exhibits superb plasticity in response to changes in functional demands.
Chronic increases of skeletal muscle contractile activity, such as endurance exercise, lead to …

Endothelium is essential for maintenance of health of the vessel wall and for the local
regulation of vascular tone and structure and haemostasis. Regular physical exercise, which …
