Our November 2016 publication (Kim et al.) coined the term \u2018exercise resistance\u2019 to describe the phenomenon that occurs when people who sit for 14 h\/day and then exercise for 1 h, do not derive the full health benefits of that exercise (e.g.; improved lipid metabolism).\u00a0 Several studies in the HPL are aimed at discovering how to counteract the harmful effects of prolonged sitting.\u00a0\u00a0 Another area of research in the HPL relates to the neuromuscular factors that determine maximal power as measured accurately during a four-second cycling test.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Human Performance Laboratory investigates the physiological factors that regulate exercise performance.
