Im happy to share our "century of exercise physiology" review on effects of exercise on skeletal muscle Na+, K+‑ATPase, Na+ and K+ ions, and on plasma K+ concentration. McKenna, Renaud, Ørtenblad & Overgaard. Michael McKenna Idræt og Biomekanik link.springer.com/content/pdf/10…

🩸Blood lactate [BLa] does NOT increase exponentially during high intensity exercise 🧑‍🔬 Why do we make this common mistake? I think because we have focused too much on the lactate test And forgotten what information that test is trying to give us about real exercise 🧵1/14

12% reduction in muscle oxidative power due to glycogen-dependent muscle fatigue! This is what we suggest based on single fiber assessments of glycogen and mitochondrial volume percentages during prolonged cycling. With Rasmus Jensen and Niels Ørtenblad. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/XC5XTKR9…

Have you ever wondered if the underband of a sports bra can restrict breathing mechanics and increase oxygen consumption? I figured we needed to do a study: buff.ly/3T1xpMG Mick Leahy UBC School of Kinesiology

I am pleased to be hosting the Dyspnea Society mtg again in Montreal! Please register for the mtg, submit an abstract, and join us as we learn about the mechanisms, measurement & management of #dyspnea from established & emerging leaders in the field! See you in June! Please RT!

New paper, hot off the press 🥳! Larger animals have longer limbs and are stronger-so why are the fastest runners of intermediate size? It's all to do with physical constraints on muscle, the prime mover. Collab w/ Christofer Clemente, Taylor Dick and P Bishop. doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

New article from my PhD in Journal of Physiology! physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… We compared utilization of the three subcellular pools of glycogen during 1- and 15-min maximal exercise. 1/5

🚴‍♂️ New open-access paper from our group out in EJAP! We show durability of the moderate-to-heavy intensity transition (VT1) during prolonged cycling can be predicted using simple, readily available markers of physiological decoupling. (1/7) 📄 doi.org/10.1007/s00421…
