Response to exercise is regulated by environmental factors and genetic predisposition. PPARγ and ADRB3 genes are associated with body composition. Adipose and muscle tissues secrete adipokines and myokines involved in energy expenditure; among the others, adiponectin and Irisin were associated with benefits of physical activity. Here we investigate two common variants in PPARγ and ADRB3 genes (Pro...... hiện toàn bộ
Measuring arterial occlusion pressure for training with blood flow restriction: a scoping review and recommendations for measurementSport Sciences for Health - - Trang 1-14 - 2023

It is recommended that the pressure applied in training with blood flow restriction (BFR) be relativized based on the arterial occlusion pressure (AOP). However, several factors can affect the measurement of AOP that may require consideration. The purpose of this review was to explore variables capable of impacting AOP and provide recommendations for measurement. On August 8, 2023, PubMed® and Sco...... hiện toàn bộ
Visio-spatial skills in athletes: comparison of rugby players and non-athletesSport Sciences for Health - Tập 17 - Trang 137-143 - 2020
Lourens Millard, Ina Shaw, Gerrit Jan Breukelman, Brandon S. Shaw
Research pertaining to the superiority of athletes’ visio-spatial expertise when compared to non-athletes is conflicting. This discrepancy may arise due to a superiority in athletes in only specific visio-spatial skills (VSS) and not all aspects of vision. The aim of this study was to discern whether rugby players have superior VSS/expertise in comparison to non-athletes, when comparing six visual...... hiện toàn bộ
Resistance training at different intensities promotes different adaptations on the parameters of torque–duration relationship in postmenopausal womenSport Sciences for Health - - Trang 1-9 - 2023

The torque–duration relationship in muscle group exercise is characterized by two parameters, the critical torque (CT) and the W prime (Wʹ), which define the limit of tolerance. These parameters have significant utility in assessing health and disease. However, there is a lack of information regarding the optimization of CT and/or Wʹ gains through manipulation of resistance training (RT) variables...... hiện toàn bộ
Hydroelectrolytic balance of Brazilian jiu-jitsu athletes during a simulated competitionSport Sciences for Health - Tập 12 - Trang 183-188 - 2016

To analyze the hydroelectrolytic balance of Brazilian jiu-jitsu athletes during a simulated competition. Eight athletes were analyzed in simulated competition (four matches of 10 min). Blood lactate and rating of perceived exertion (6–20 scale) were used to infer the intensity of the matches. Blood samples were taken to determine the serum levels of osmolality, total protein and some electrolytes ...... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of aerobic training on insulin resistance and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and subcutaneous abdominal in obese womenSport Sciences for Health - Tập 10 - Trang 111-118 - 2014

This study examined the effect of three training intensities on abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Forty-three young obese women (age 20–30 years; body mass index 30–40 kg/m2) underwent 12 weeks of walking programs (i.e., 5 days/week). They were randomly assigned to one of four groups: low-intensity training group [G1, 50 % of heart rate reserve (HRR), n = ...... hiện toàn bộ
