The need for standardized assessment of muscle quality in skeletal muscle function deficit and other aging-related muscle dysfunctions: a symposium report
A growing body of scientific literature suggests that not only changes in skeletal muscle
mass, but also other factors underpinning muscle quality, play a role in the decline in …

The effect of unilateral training on contralateral limb strength in young, older, and patient populations: a meta-analysis of cross education
Background: Cross education is the contralateral strength gain following unilateral training
of the ipsilateral limb. This phenomenon provides an ideal rehabilitation model for acute or …

Cross-education of muscular strength following unilateral resistance training: a meta-analysis
Purpose Cross-education (CE) of strength is a well-known phenomenon whereby exercise
of one limb can induce strength gains in the contralateral untrained limb. The only available …

β-Alanine supplementation elevates intramuscular carnosine content and attenuates fatigue in men and women similarly but does not change muscle l-histidine …
Abstract β-Alanine (BA) supplementation results in elevated intramuscular carnosine
content, enhancing buffering capacity during intense exercise. Although men have greater …

Mechanisms of blood flow restriction: the new testament
When restricting blood flow for the purpose of increasing or maintaining muscle fitness, the
aim is to reduce the amount of arterial flow into the limb and restrict the venous flow out of …
