Fatigue/Central Governor

Pacing strategy and limits to performance

Ross · 08 Oct 2009 ·

Well, I have arrived in Chicago after a great couple of days in Washington, and now the build-up to the Chicago 2009 Marathon can begin! A little later today, Jonathan and I will be meeting with some of the Marathon organizers to discuss race-day logistics and to figure out how (if at all) we can […]

Fatigue and Exercise: Part V

Ross · 28 May 2008 ·

Continued discussion on how the brain regulates exercise intensity during exercise in the heat

Fatigue and Exercise: Part IV

Ross · 21 May 2008 ·

A discussion of research that shows that smaller athletes pace themselves differently from larger athletes in hot, but not cool conditions. This suggests some kind of anticipatory regulation of pacing strategy

Fatigue and Exercise: Part III

Ross · 12 May 2008 ·

Exercise in the heat provides a great model to investigate fatigue. An old, then a new theory, to explain exercise in the heat have revealed which systems fail with hyperthermia, and which may be regulated

Fatigue and Exercise: Part II

Ross · 06 May 2008 ·

Back in the saddle for Part 3 of our series on Fatigue today. In previous posts, we’ve , and contrasted it with the theory of “limitations” of exercise performance. We  , which is often dismissed as “obvious” (because it is!), but is in fact one of the most complex, and meaningful characteristics of exercise performance […]
