Participants underwent 2 sessions with anodal or sham tDCS (2\u2009mA, 20\u2009min) applied before exercise over the left temporal cortex targeting the left insular cortex. The exercise was performed at vigorous intensity (%HRmax 81.68\u00b16.37) for 30\u2009min. Heart rate (HR), rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and affective responses (pleasure\/displeasure) were recorded at every 5\u2009min. Additionally, heart rate variability (HRV) was measured before, immediately after and 60\u2009min after the end of exercise. A 2-way repeated measure ANOVA showed that tDCS improved HRV neither at rest nor after exercise (p&gt;0.15). Similarly, HR, RPE, and affective responses were not enhanced by tDCS during vigorous exercise (p&gt;0.23). The findings of this study suggest that tCDS does not modulate either HRV at rest nor HR, RPE and affective responses during exercise. Transcranial direct current stimulation\u2019s efficiency might depend on the participants\u2019 levels of physical fitness and parameters of stimulation (e.\u2009g., duration, intensity, and arrangement of electrodes).<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0042-121897","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,17]],"date-time":"2017-05-17T23:08:34Z","timestamp":1495062514000},"page":"493-500","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["Can Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Modulate Psychophysiological Response in Sedentary Men during Vigorous Aerobic Exercise?"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"38","author":[{"given":"Alexandre","family":"Okano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Daniel","family":"Machado","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil"},{"name":"Department of Physical Education, Londrina State University, Londrina, Paran\u00e1, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Le\u00f4nidas","family":"Oliveira Neto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luiz","family":"Farias-Junior","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Pedro","family":"Agr\u00edcola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Education, Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil"},{"name":"Department of Physical Education, Faculty Maur\u00edcio de Nassau.
