Sympathetic neural adaptations to exercise training in humans

JR Carter, CA Ray - Autonomic Neuroscience, 2015 - Elsevier
Physiological adaptations to exercise training are well recognized and contribute importantly
to health and fitness. Cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension and heart failure, are
often associated with elevated activity of the sympathetic nervous system. This review aims
to provide comprehensive overview on the role of exercise training on muscle sympathetic
nerve activity (MSNA) regulation in humans, with a focus on recent advances in at-risk
populations. Collectively, these studies converge to demonstrate that aerobic exercise …
