Sex-based differences in hematological values after normalization to body mass or fat-free mass in adults matched for aerobic fitness

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1517-1528, November 2024. Blood properties influence aerobic exercise performance. While vascular volumes and hemoglobin mass (Hbmass) are elevated in trained individuals, evidence of sex differences in vascular volumes is equivocal due to inadequate matching of aerobic fitness between males and females. This cross-sectional study aimed […]

A quasi-experimental study on the energy expenditure, exercise intensity, and rating of perceived exertion of a male bodybuilding posing training

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1529-1538, November 2024. This study aimed to evaluate the intensity of posing training in male bodybuilders by comparing it to vigorous intensity parameters and examining the effects of stimulant usage and preparation phases. Specifically, this study compared posing training to established vigorous intensity benchmarks using

Does exercise modality and posture influence cerebrovascular and cardiovascular systems similarly?

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1539-1550, November 2024. Cerebral hemodynamics have been quantified during exercise via transcranial Doppler ultrasound, as it has high-sensitivity to movement artifacts and displays temporal superiority. Currently, limited research exists regarding how different exercise modalities and postural changes impact the cerebrovasculature across the cardiac cycle. Ten

Retinol-binding protein 4 is a potential biomarker of changes in lean mass in postmenopausal women

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1551-1557, November 2024. Identifying biomarkers can help in the early detection of muscle loss and drive the development of new therapies. Research suggests a potential link between retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) and muscle mass, particularly in postmenopausal women. This study aimed to examine the association

Interrelationships between stress, eating attitudes, and metabolism in endurance athletes across a competitive season

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1558-1572, November 2024. A competitive sport season represents a multidimensional stressor where physical and psychological stress may render an athlete susceptible to energy deficiency (ED). Downstream effects of ED can include a reduction in measured-to-predicted resting metabolic rate (RMRratio), indicating metabolic compensation. A pathway linking

“But will they do it?” Challenging assumptions and incivility in the academic discourse on high-intensity interval training

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1461-1470, November 2024. Debate over whether to promote high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in public-health contexts has centred on assumptions that people will have negative psychological responses to HIIT, leading to poor adoption and adherence. We challenge these assumptions through reviews of (1) studies that have

Development, validity, and reliability assessment of the Canadian Food Literacy Measure

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1471-1494, November 2024. Food literacy is a growing area of interest given its potential to support healthy and sustainable diets. Most existing food literacy measures focus on nutrition and food skills but fail to address food systems and socio-environmental aspects of food literacy. Further, measures

Gestational physical activity alters offspring brain APP processing in an age-specific manner

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 1507-1516, November 2024. Maternal exercise is beneficial for offspring brain development. Amyloid precursor protein (APP) influences neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity. Cleavage products of APP are implicated in the proliferation of neural progenitor cells and neuronal network development. Our study aimed to investigate differences in APP
