Mechanisms underlying mechanical overload-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy have
been extensively researched since the landmark report by Morpurgo (1897) of “work …

The response of skeletal muscle to unaccustomed eccentric exercise has been studied
widely, yet it is incompletely understood. This review is intended to provide an up‐to‐date …

This review addresses the effects of fatiguing general muscular exercise (involving the
whole body) and fatiguing local muscular exercise (involving a particular muscular group) …

Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) leads to decrements in muscle performance and
increases in intramuscular enzymes measured in the plasma, and to delayed onset of …

Purpose Blood-flow restricted resistance exercise training (BFRE) is suggested to be
effective in rehabilitation training, but more knowledge is required about its potential muscle …

Human skeletal muscle satellite cells (SCs) are essential for muscle regeneration and
remodeling processes in healthy and clinical conditions involving muscle breakdown …

Running economy (RE), defined as the energy demand for a given velocity of submaximal
running, has been identified as a critical factor of overall distance running performance …

Purpose Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is known to reduce muscle damage induced by
ischemia and reperfusion injury during surgery. Because of similarities between the …

Purpose: Unilateral resistance training increases muscle strength of the contralateral
homologous muscle by the cross-education effect. Muscle damage induced by second …

Purpose To better understand neuromuscular characteristics of eccentric exercise-induced
muscle damage, this study compared between concentric (CONC) and eccentric (ECC) …
