Mental fatigue is best described as a change in psychophysiological state due to sustained cognitive or perceptual performance. The negative effects of mental fatigue on occupational and cognitive tasks have been well documented (Boksem, Meijman, & Lorist, 2005; Lorist et al., 2000; Lundberg et al., 2002). Few studies exist that examine the effect of mental fatigue on physical performance (Marcora, Staiano, & Manning, 2009; Mehta & Parasuraman, 2014); those that do suggest that mental fatigue…

Mental fatigue impairs physical performance in humans.
TLDR
Experimental evidence is provided that mental fatigue limits exercise tolerance in humans through higher perception of effort rather than cardiorespiratory and musculoenergetic mechanisms.
Effects of Mental Fatigue on the Development of Physical Fatigue
TLDR
The findings suggest that interference in the prefrontal cortex may influence motor output during tasks that require both physical and cognitive processing, despite comparable muscular responses.
Mental fatigue influence on effort-related cardiovascular response: difficulty effects and extension across cognitive performance domains
Two experiments investigated cardiovascular effects of mental fatigue as a function of (1) the difficulty of the cognitive challenge with which participants were confronted, and (2) the relevance of…
Impact of mental fatigue on self-paced exercise.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that individuals with higher self-reported sensations of fatigue and elevations of EEG beta activity in the prefrontal cortex of the brain prior to exercise produce less work during self-paced exercise trials than in a control condition, probably due to an altered perception of effort.
The Impact of Cognitive Fatigue on Age-related Differences in Neuromuscular Function
Fatigue is a multifactorial phenomenon including both cognitive and physical components. While age-related changes in neuromuscular function due to physical fatigue are well investigated, the effects…

TLDR
The results appear consistent with the hypothesis that enhanced parasympathetic nervous system activity and decreased central nervous system ...

Mental Fatigue Impairs Intermittent Running Performance.
TLDR
Mental fatigue impairs intermittent running performance, and this negative effect of mental fatigue seems to be mediated by higher perception of effort.
Mental fatigue induced by prolonged self-regulation does not exacerbate central fatigue during subsequent whole-body endurance exercise
TLDR
Findings reject the hypothesis that mental fatigue exacerbates central fatigue induced by whole-body endurance exercise and confirm previous findings thatmental fatigue does not reduce the capacity of the central nervous system to recruit the working muscles.
