The effect of foot orthotics on myoelectric fatigue in the vastus lateralis during a simulated skier's squat (2004)
Journal Article
Vanicek, N., Kingman, J., & Hencken, C. (2004). The effect of foot orthotics on myoelectric fatigue in the vastus lateralis during a simulated skier's squat. Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 14(6), 693-698. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jelekin.2004.03.007

Fatigue in the legs is a problem experienced by skiers. It has been suggested that optimal orthotics may reduce muscle fatigue for a given movement task by minimising muscle activity (Med. Sci. Sports Exerc. 31 (1999) S421). The aims were to determin... Read More about The effect of foot orthotics on myoelectric fatigue in the vastus lateralis during a simulated skier's squat.

Influence of intervals of radiant heat on performance and pacing dynamics during rowing exercise
Book Chapter
Ingle, L., Butterly, R., & Lander, P. Influence of intervals of radiant heat on performance and pacing dynamics during rowing exercise. In Science of sport, exercise and physical activity in the Tropics

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether intervals of radiant heat during thermoneutral exercise altered either the performance outcome or the dynamics of pacing within the exercise bout. Eleven male participants ( ; 56 ± 12 ml∙... Read More about Influence of intervals of radiant heat on performance and pacing dynamics during rowing exercise.

Effects of α-lipoic acid on mtDNA damage after isolated muscle contractions
Journal Article
Fogarty, M. C., Devito, G., Hughes, C. M., Burke, G., Brown, J. C., McClean, C., McEneny, J., Brown, D., Davison, G. W., & McClean, C. Effects of α-lipoic acid on mtDNA damage after isolated muscle contractions. Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 45(8), 1469-1477. https://doi.org/10.1249/MSS.0b013e31828bf31e

Introduction: Although pharmacological antioxidants have previously been investigated for a prophylactic effect against exercise oxidative stress, it is not known if [alpha]-lipoic acid supplementation can protect against DNA damage after high-intens...
