Muscle fatigue in males and females during multiple-sprint exercise

F Billaut, D Bishop - Sports medicine, 2009 - Springer
Females have often been reported to have a greater muscle fatigue resistance than males,
especially during exercise at low-to-moderate intensities. Differences in muscle mass, muscle …

O Girard, M Amann, R Aughey, F Billaut… - British journal of sports …, 2013 - bjsm.bmj.com
Despite the limited research on the effects of altitude (or hypoxic) training interventions on
team-sport performance, players from all around the world engaged in these sports are now …

Enhancing team-sport athlete performance: is altitude training relevant?

F Billaut, CJ Gore, RJ Aughey - Sports Medicine, 2012 - Springer
… [94] As such, a reduction in prefrontal cortex oxygenation induced by acute hypoxia (F I O
2 0.13, ∼3500 m) partly explains the changes in EMG amplitude of active muscles during ten …

[PDF][PDF] Influence of knowledge of sprint number on pacing during repeated-sprint exercise

F Billaut, DJ Bishop, S Schaerz… - Medicine & Science in …, 2011 - researchgate.net
… Instead of using the iEMG results of individual muscles, the EMG integrals of every
muscle were added together, and a new sum–iEMG parameter was used to represent the …

Influence of cerebral and muscle oxygenation on repeated-sprint ability

KJ Smith, F Billaut - European journal of applied physiology, 2010 - Springer
… The major finding in this study was that acute hypoxia induced by a blinded change in F I O
2 profoundly affected the pattern of prefrontal cortex oxygenation during a RSA test, whereas …

Effects of resistance training combined with vascular occlusion or hypoxia on neuromuscular function in athletes

…, R Taylor, N Draper, F Billaut… - European journal of …, 2013 - Springer
… The fraction of inspired oxygen (F I O 2 ) was automatically adjusted by the hypoxicator using
a biofeedback control system to maintain saturation of peripheral oxygen (SpO 2 ) at ~80 % …

[HTML][HTML] Interaction of Central and Peripheral Factors during Repeated Sprints at Different Levels of Arterial O2 Saturation

Purpose To investigate the interaction between the development of peripheral locomotor
muscle fatigue, muscle recruitment and performance during repeated-sprint exercise (RSE). …

Repeated‐sprint performance and vastus lateralis oxygenation: Effect of limited O2 availability

F Billaut, M Buchheit - … journal of medicine & science in sports, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
This study examined the influence of muscle deoxygenation and reoxygenation on repeated‐sprint
performance via manipulation of O 2 delivery. Fourteen team‐sport players …

Effect of different recovery patterns on repeated-sprint ability and neuromuscular responses

F Billaut, FA Basset - Journal of sports sciences, 2007 - Taylor & Francis
We examined the effect of recovery pattern on mechanical and neuromuscular responses in
