Abstract

The principal aim of this study was to compare the effect of cognitive fatigue on a subsequent time-to-exhaustion handgrip task in endurance athletes and non-athletes. Cognitive fatigue lead to a significant performance decrement in the non-athlete individuals while the performance of the endurance athletes was not impacted.
