<em>Experimental Physiology</em> journal reports novel insights into homeostatic and adaptive responses in health, and research into pathophysiological mechanisms in disease.

In 2026, the Physiological Society celebrates its 150th anniversary: a landmark moment to celebrate physiologists past and present, the discoveries that have shaped our understanding of the body, and…

Background Low muscle oxidative capacity is an extrapulmonary manifestation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with unclear aetiology. We sought to characterize locomotor muscle oxidati...

A new review from TLI Investigators Carrie Ferguson, PhD and Harry Rossiter, PhD offers a fresh perspective on the interaction between power and endurance training.

Abstract figure legend Depiction of the world running records from 1925 studied by A. V. Hill and those of 2025 up to and including ultradistance events on a semi-logarithmic plot. These records, in ...

Expiratory flow limitation results in dynamic hyperinflation, dyspnoea and premature exercise intolerance. We aimed to measure whether expiratory resistance reduces locomotor power via limiting maxim...

Rachelle Bross, PhD, RDN is a nutrition research manager at UCLA Clinical and Translational Research Institute at the Lundquist Institute for Biomedical Innovation at Harbor UCLA Medical Center.

Purpose Sleep deprivation (SD) seems to impair endurance performance. However, little research is available on the effects of SD in the context of repeated bouts of endurance exercise. The effect of r...

erred by measurement of critical power/speed or cardiopulmonary exercise testing to determine e.g., gas exchange threshold (GET), maximum oxygen uptake (V̇O2max) and exercise economy. Specificity is a...

This cohort study examines a multidimensional diagnostic approach for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease that uses a new diagnostic schema.

This study aimed to evaluate in vivo oxidative capacity and relative resistance to O2 diffusion using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in the m. triceps brachii of recreational to world class swimme...

Critics say a new, broader definition of high-risk plaque opens the door to more tests, diagnoses, and invasive procedures, steering us down a potentially harmful path.
