Physical inactivity is a major risk factor for public health. Due to the decline in physical demands of daily living exercise becomes an increasingly important contributor to an active lifestyle. The evidence on health benefits of exercise, particula...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of skimmed milk as a recovery drink following moderate–vigorous cycling exercise on subsequent appetite and energy intake in healthy, female recreational exercisers. Utilising a randomised cross-over...

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a serious complication of diabetes, and its progression is influenced by factors like oxidative stress, inflammation, cell death, and fibrosis. Compared to drug treatment, exercise offers a cost-effective and low-risk app...

Background/Objectives: Alternate-day fasting (ADF) combined with exercise has been suggested as an effective lifestyle strategy for reducing fat mass while preserving lean mass. However, whether exercise preconditioning before ADF plus concurrent exe...

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a complex physiological and psychological condition that affects a significant number of women during their reproductive years. Although the exact etiology of PMS remains unclear, its symptoms, including mood swings, bl...

Background/Objectives: This study evaluated carotid baroreflex sensitivity (cBRS) during graded exercise tests to exhaustion in healthy individuals. It aimed to elucidate whether the augmented blood pressure response during heavy- and maximal-intensi...

This study aimed to elucidate whether muscle blood flow restriction during maximal exercise is associated with alterations in hemodynamics, cerebral oxygenation, cerebral activation, and deterioration of exercise performance in male participants. Thi...

Exercise dependence is a maladaptive pattern of excessive exercise characterized by psychological and cognitive symptoms. The existence and nature of attentional bias in individuals with exercise dependence remain unclear. This study combined behavio...

Background: We previously reported that silk peptide (SP) treatment led to increased resting fat oxidation in exercised mice. However, it was not known whether SP treatment could effectively increase exercise capacity. Accordingly, this study aimed t...
