Abstract:Purpose
This study aimed to evaluate whether motor-respiratory coupling (MRC) exists in rhythmic isometric handgrip exercises and its effect on endurance performance. Additionally, the mechanism underlying observed effects was to be investigated if higher MRC rate could enhance endurance performance.
Methods
Eleven subjects completed three rhythmic isometric handgrip trials to task failure in a randomized manner. After one pre-training session to determ… Show more
