VO2 Max: In Vivo Model for Functional Red Cell Testing. Can RECESS be Explained?
This is a single-center, randomized, partially blinded study to determine whether 42-day old red blood cells (RBCs) deliver oxygen as effectively as 7-day old RBCs and also to determine whether transfusion with 28-day old RBCs is…

Ineffective Erythropoiesis
Echinacea-based Supplement Does Not Improve Markers of Performance in Athletes
The purpose of this study was three-fold. We wanted to (1) determine if supplementation with an echinacea-based dietary supplement (ECH) would increase several blood parameters that could affect oxygen carrying capacity in the…

Erythrocyte Transfusion
Rejuvenated RBC and VO2 Max in Healthy Subjects
To compare the physiologic benefits of rejuvenated RBCs (rejRBCs) to standards RBCs (PRBCs), we will emulate critical conditions by safely maximizing stress on the cardiovascular system, in an elective, feasible volunteer study.

High Intensity Interval Training
High Intensity Interval Training Versus Circuit Training
High intensity interval training (HIIT) and circuit training (CT) are popular methods of exercise, eliciting improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF). However direct comparisons of these two training methods are limited.
