Effect of race distance on performance fatigability in male trail and ultra‐trail runners

The etiology of changes in lower‐limb neuromuscular function, especially to the central nervous system, may be affected by exercise duration. Direct evidence is lacking as few studies have directly compared different race distances. This study aimed to investigate the etiology of deficits in neuromu...

Description
Summary:The etiology of changes in lower‐limb neuromuscular function, especially to the central nervous system, may be affected by exercise duration. Direct evidence is lacking as few studies have directly compared different race distances. This study aimed to investigate the etiology of deficits in neuromuscular function following short versus long trail‐running races. Thirty‐two male trail runners completed one of five trail‐running races as LONG (>100 km) or SHORT (
