Neuromuscular adaptations during combined strength and endurance training in endurance runners: maximal versus explosive streng
Exercise Physiology | BFM, PBF | R. S. Taipale | 2013 | Finland | European Journal of Applied Physiology
This study compared the effects of mixed maximal strength and explosive strength training with maximal strength training and explosive strength training combined with endurance training over an 8-week training intervention. Male subjects (age 21–45 years) were divided into three strength training groups, maximal (MAX, n= 11), explosive (EXP, 10) and mixed maximal and explosive (MIX, 9), and a circuit training control group,(CON, 7). Strength training one to two times a week was performed concurrently with endurance training three …
Effects of 8-week Pilates training program on hamstring/quadriceps ratio and trunk strength in adolescent baseball players: a p
Exercise Physiology | ASM | Park et al. | 2020 | Korea | Journal of Exercise Rehabilitation
The purpose of this pilot case study is to investigate the effects of Pilates training on hamstring/quadriceps ratio, trunk strength, shoulder strength, and body composition in adolescent baseball players. Eight adolescent baseball players, 15 years of age, participated in Pilates program (supervised training, 50 min per session for three times a week for 8 weeks) using reformer and Cadillac. The intensity of the program was progressively increased by applying beginner level for 1–2 weeks, intermediate level for 3–6 …
Positive effects of yoga on physical and respiratory functions in healthy inactive middle-aged people
Exercise Physiology | BW, SMM,BFM | K Yamamoto-Morimoto et al. | 2018 | Japan | International Journal of Yoga
Aim: This study aimed to assess the effects of 8 weeks of asana and asana with pranayama lessons in order to clarify the influence of two different combinations of yoga practice on physical and respiratory functions in healthy inactive middle-aged people. Subjects and Methods: A total of 28 participants (mean age: 52.7 years) were divided into a yoga asana (YA) group and YA with pranayama (YAP) group. Participants attended a 70-min session once a week for 8 weeks. The YA group practiced basic asana without specific breathing …
Post‐exercise recovery of contractile function and endurance in humans and mice is accelerated by heating and slowed by cooling
Exercise Physiology | BW, PBF | Cheng AJ et al. | 2017 | Sweden | The Journal of Physiology
Key points We investigated whether intramuscular temperature affects the acute recovery of exercise performance following fatigue‐induced by endurance exercise. Mean power output was better preserved during an all‐out arm‐cycling exercise following a 2 h recovery period in which the upper arms were warmed to an intramuscular temperature of ̴ 38° C than when they were cooled to as low as 15° C, which suggested that recovery of exercise performance in humans is dependent on muscle temperature. Mechanisms underlying the …
High doses of sodium nitrate prior to exhaustive exercise increases plasma peroxynitrite levels in well-trained subjects: rando
Exercise Physiology | Body Composition | F Gholami et al. | 2019 | Iran | Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different doses of pre-workout sodium nitrate supplementation on nitric oxide, peroxynitrite levels, and performance parameters. Ten well-trained male subjects participated in a randomized, double-blinded, crossover study. They ingested 8, 16, and 24 mmol sodium nitrate or placebo (NaCl) dissolved in water at 2.5 h before an incremental exercise test. Respiratory gases (oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, respiratory exchange ratio) were measured throughout the …
Efficacy and safety of an mhealth app and wearable device in physical performance for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma: d
Exercise Physiology | BMI, PBF, MM | Kim et al. | 2020 | Korea | JMIR mHealth and uHealth
Background: Exercise is predicted to have a positive effect among hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. However, these patients are hesitant to start and build up an exercise program for one major reason: the vague fear of developing hepatic decompensation, a potentially fatal condition that can lead to death. Integrating mobile health (mHealth) with individualized exercise programs could be a possible option for promoting physical capacity among HCC patients. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety …
Effect of a multistage ultra-endurance triathlon on body composition: World Challenge Deca Iron Triathlon 2006
Exercise Physiology | FFM, BFM, PBF, Protein, Mineral | B Knechtle et al. | 2007 | Switzerland | British Journal of Sports Medicine
Objective: To investigate the effect of a multistage ultra-endurance triathlon on body composition in ultra-triathletes. Design: Descriptive field study. Setting: The “World Challenge Deca Iron Triathlon 2006” in Monterrey, Mexico, in which every day for 10 consecutive days athletes had to perform the distance of one Ironman triathlon. Subjects: Eight male ultra-endurance athletes (mean (SD) age 40.6 (10.7) years, weight 76.4 (8.4) kg, height 175 (4) cm and body mass index (BMI) 24.7 (2.2) kg/m2). Interventions: None. Main …
