Dr. Robert Boushel’s new publication, “Functional reserve and sex differences during exercise to exhaustion revealed by post-exercise ischaemia and repeated supramaximal exercise”

Congratulations to Robert Boushel and Jose Calbet, Affiliate Professor in Kinesiology, on their new research publication in the Journal of Physiology. The study investigated mechanisms of fatigue during intense exercise. The study showed that females extracted more oxygen into muscle to produce energy, and that both males and females have a similarly large anaerobic bioenergetic reserve in muscle at the point of fatigue during exercise. The lead author is Dr. Marcos Rincon from the University of Las Palmas, Spain.
