Abstract

During its first decade of life, Physiological Reports has become a home for well-conceived and rigorously performed exercise physiology and metabolism studies. The breadth of research within this area is impressive, covering exercise-induced increases in skeletal muscle gene expression to the effects of exercise on the gut microbiome. The purpose of the current review is to highlight some of the impactful exercise physiology and metabolism papers published in the journal and to look ahead to what areas exercise physiology publications might address in the next 10 years.

Keywords: adipose tissue; exercise; metabolism; microbiome; muscle.
