Cardiac rehabilitation is defined as a multidisciplinary program that includes exercise
training, cardiac risk factor modification, psychosocial assessment, and outcomes …

Skeletal muscle is highly adaptable and has consistently been shown to morphologically
respond to exercise training. Skeletal muscle growth during periods of resistance training …

Skeletal muscle provides a fundamental basis for human function, enabling locomotion and
respiration. Transmission of external stimuli to intracellular effector proteins via signalling …

The plasticity of skeletal muscle can be traced down to extensive metabolic, structural and
molecular remodeling at the single fiber level. Skeletal muscle is comprised of different fiber …

The maintenance of skeletal muscle mass plays a critical role in health and quality of life.
One of the most potent regulators of skeletal muscle mass is mechanical loading, and …

The question whether the muscle hypertrophy induced by resistance training, hormone
administration or genetic manipulation is accompanied by a proportional increase in muscle …

The control of ventilation and cardiovascular function during physical activity is partially
regulated by the ergoreflex, a cardiorespiratory reflex activated by physical activity. Two …

The proportion of older workers has increased substantially in recent years, with over 25% of
the Canadian labour force aged≥ 55 years. Along with chronological age comes age …

Cellular adaptations that occur during skeletal muscle hypertrophy in response to high-
volume resistance training are not well-characterized. Therefore, we sought to explore how …

Skeletal muscle fibers are multinucleated cells that contain mostly myofibrils suspended in
an aqueous media termed the sarcoplasm. Select evidence suggests sarcoplasmic …
