Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Exercise training can be implemented in many different settings ranging from training for general health to training for sports performance. As with any exercise training program, there are many things to consider when prescribing exercise; these factors ranges from the metabolic pathways used (aerobic, anerobic) to fatiguing mechanisms (both central and peripheral) and recovery strategies (common and uncommon). This Special Issue will discuss the wide-ranging effects of exercise training on muscle metabolism, fatigue and recovery, with the ultimate goal being to improve the knowledge base on how we exercise, what happens when we fatigue during exercise and how we recover from exercise. Both reviews and original research submissions are welcome, and all forms of original research (e.g., qualitative, quantitative, observational, experimental) will be considered for publication. In line with the scope of Sports, all submissions should place a substantive emphasis on at least one aspect of training, with a specific focus on metabolism, fatigue or recovery.
