Weber and colleagues found they could use smaller concentrations for shorter periods (3 7 days) to observe effects similar to those seen in humans, such as hyperactivity, decreased muscle coordination, learning deficits, changes in energy use, and lower reproductive activity.
Taking the results after the acute HIIT intervention into account, the inverted ankle muscle coordination pattern did not change as a result of exhaustive endurance exercise, neither in young nor in healthy elderly persons.
AS AN UNDERGRADUATE, Angelina Sylvain was fascinated to learn that devastating declines in cognition and muscle coordination could be caused by changes in a single gene — the cause of Huntington's disease.
It is, however, not clear to date whether underlying changes of muscle coordination account for these increases of postural sway.
In the former case, it induces whole-body postural tilts (attributed to illusory lengthening of the stimulated muscles), whereas during locomotion it results in modified stepping movements with little overall change in muscle coordination [47] [49].
The present study may contribute to a better understanding of aging- and exercise-induced changes of ankle muscle coordination and co-activation.
Although several studies revealed increased postural sway after moderate cycling [ 13] and exhaustive walking [ 11] in seniors, an indirect link between exercise-induced increases of postural sway and changes of ankle muscle coordination patterns should be handled with caution.
Most life-threatening complications result from muscle coordination and, to a lesser extent, behavioral changes induced by declining cognitive function.
The occurrence and magnitude of the age-specific ankle muscle coordination patterns during SLEO and DLEC did not change after a single HIIT session in both groups.
