Arterial stiffness is inversely associated with a better running record in a full course marathon race
Exercise Physiology | BW, BMI, SLM, BFM, PBF, WHR | Jung SJ, Park JH, Lee S. | 2014 | Korea | Journal of Exercise Nutrition & Biochemistry
[Purpose] Arterial stiffness is an independent predictor of cardiovascular risk and may contribute to reduced running capacity in humans. This study investigated the relationship between course record and arterial stiffness in marathoners who participated in the Seoul International Marathon in 2012.[Methods] A total of 30 amateur marathoners (Males n= 28, Females n= 2, mean age= 51.6±8.3 years) were assessed before and after the marathon race. Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (ba-PWV) was assessed by VP-1000 plus (Omron …
Hydration assessment among marathoners using urine specific gravity and bioelectrical impedance analysis
Exercise Physiology | TBW, PBF | Cutrufello PT et al. | 2016 | USA | Research in Sports Medicine
The present study examined the relationship between urine specific gravity (Usg), body mass (BM) and bioelectrical impedance determined variables [total body water (TBW), per cent TBW and impedance values] before and after a marathon (n= 25 men; 10 women). A significant reduction in BM (pre: 71.2±12.4 kg; post: 69.6±12.0 kg; p< 0.001) and an increase in Usg (pre: 1.009±0.007; post: 1.018±0.009; p< 0.001) was observed post-race. TBW was not significantly decreased (pre: 42.7±8.0 kg; post: 42.4±7.7 kg) while per cent TBW …
“AMPE” Exercise Programme Has Positive Effects on Anthropometric and Physiological Parameters of School Children: A Pilot Study
Exercise Physiology | WHR, PBF | M. Omoniyi et al. | 2020 | Ghana | Ethiopian journal of health sciences
BACKGROUND: Projection of the effectiveness of house-hold physical activity may be a vital tool to improve active lifestyle. Although ampe is a common house-hold recreational physical activity among all population groups especially school children in Ghana, no empirical evidence of its effects on the anthropometric and physiological parameters of the children. This pilot study examined the effect of ampe exercise programme on the anthropometric and physiological parameters of school children. METHODS: Purposive and …
Effects of a progressive walking program on the risk of developing locomotive syndrome in elderly Japanese people: a single-arm
Exercise Physiology | SMM, BFM, PBF | T Yoshihara et al. | 2018 | Japan | The Journal of Physical Therapy Science
[Purpose] This study aimed to identify the efficacy of a progressive walking program on the risk of developing locomotive syndrome among untrained elderly Japanese people.[Participants and Methods] Twenty-four untrained elderly individuals (68±4 years) completed a 17-week progressive walking program. The stand-up, two-step tests and the 25-question geriatric locomotive function scale were used to assess the risk of locomotive syndrome at baseline, the 8-week midpoint (2 months), and the 17-week endpoint (4 …
Qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the characteristics of the isometric muscle force of different muscle groups in cade
Exercise Physiology | SMM | S. MARKOVIĆ, M. DOPSAJ, V. KOPRIVICA, G. KASUM | 2018 | Serbia | Physical Education and Sport
The aim of this paper is to define the initial quantitative and qualitative multidimensional model for evaluating basic contractile characteristics of isometric muscle force in systematically trained and selected cadet judo athletes. In this research absolute values of the obtained results, and values derived by relativization of absolute values in relation to skeletal muscle mass (SMM) were considered. The basic method used in this research was laboratory testing. All data sampling was performed by the dynamometry method, using …
Effects of intermittent negative pressure and active recovery therapies in the post-match period in elite soccer players: A ran
Exercise Physiology | PBF | Maior et al. | 2020 | Brazil | Biomedical Human Kinetics
Study aim: This study compared the effects of intermittent negative pressure therapy (INPT) vs. active recovery therapy (ART) on post-match physiological parameters such as serum CK level and skin temperature of the lower limbs in elite soccer players. Material and methods: Twenty healthy male professional soccer players from a Brazilian first division soccer club were enrolled in this randomized, parallel arm, open label, comparative study. After participating in 2 soccer matches, they were randomly assigned to two groups (n= 10) …
