Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues, 

Long-term exercise interventions (e.g., aerobics, strength training and stretching training programs) are frequently performed in various populations because they can improve physical function and quality of life. However, the influence of various exercise modalities on muscular adaptation has not been fully elucidated. Thus, this Special Issue aims to establish effective exercise programs for muscular adaptation, aiming to improve physical function and quality of life in various populations. 

We invite investigators to contribute original research articles or review articles that contribute to the body of evidence towards understanding the effect of chronic exercise intervention on muscular adaptation and establish an effective approach for muscular adaptation. Investigators who have conducted research on these topics are invited to submit manuscripts for consideration for this Special Issue in IJERPH.
