May accelerate supine exercise O2 kinetics in healthy adults; leaves open translation to patients with cardiovascular disease.
Does a priming bout of severe-intensity exercise speed pulmonary O2 uptake kinetics during supine high-intensity cycle exercise in healthy males?
A priming bout of severe-intensity exercise speeds pulmonary O2 uptake kinetics during supine high-intensity cycling, likely by increasing driving pressure for O2 diffusion in higher-order muscle fibers.
