Journal ArticleDOI

The Conscious Perception of the Sensation of Fatigue

TL;DR: It is suggested that the sensation of fatigue is the conscious awareness of changes in subconscious homeostatic control systems, and is derived from a temporal difference between subconscious representations of these homeostatics in neural networks that are induced by changes in the level of activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of sensory cues on the perception of exertion during exercise and central regulation of exercise performance

TL;DR: Borg’s 15-point ratings of perceived exertion scale has been adopted as a valid and reliable instrument for evaluating whole body exertion during exercise and it is concluded that effort perception involves the integration of multiple afferent signals from a variety of perceptual cues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for neuromuscular fatigue during high-intensity cycling in warm, humid conditions

TL;DR: The main finding of this investigation is the ability of subjects to return power output to near initial values during the final of six maximal effort sprints that were included as part of a self-paced cycling protocol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determinants of the variability in respiratory exchange ratio at rest and during exercise in trained athletes

TL;DR: There was large interindividual variability in resting RER that persisted during exercise of increasing intensity and the major determinant included muscle glycogen content, training volume, proportion of type 1 fibers, [FFA] and [lactate], and %dietary fat intake.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural control of force output during maximal and submaximal exercise.

TL;DR: It is proposed that neural strategies exist to maintain muscle reserve, and inhibit exercise activity before any irreparable damage to muscles and organs occurs, and that fatigue is probably not a physiological entity, but rather a sensory manifestation of these neural regulatory mechanisms.
