Humans have two features rare in mammals: our locomotor muscles are dominated by fatigue-resistant fibres and we effectively dissipate through sweating the metabolic heat generated through prolonged, elevated activity. A promising evolutionary explanation of these features is the endurance pursuit (EP) ...

metabolic recovery will take place during the 3 min resting break that participants were given between the two task blocks. We termed these two components participants’ sprint stamina (εspr) and endurance stamina (εend):εsprquantified the fraction of initial energy remaining at the beginning...
