Arterial Elasticity, Strength, Fatigue, and Endurance in Older Women
Arterial health may influence muscle function in older adults. Study purpose was to determine whether arterial elasticity is related to strength, central and peripheral fatigue, fatigue at rest, and treadmill endurance. Subjects were 91 healthy women aged >60. Treadmill endurance and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) were measured. Peripheral and central fatigue for the knee extensors were evalua...
متن کاملDelivery may affect arterial elasticity in women.
BACKGROUND Estrogen is considered to be cardioprotective, but estrogen replacement therapy for postmenopausal women has not shown results for either primary or secondary cardiovascular event prevention. During normal pregnancy, women have significantly higher levels of estrogen and it may be endogenous estrogen that helps prevent atherosclerosis. METHODS AND RESULTS The present cross-sectiona...
متن کاملeffect of sequence order of combined training (resistance and endurance) on strength, aerobic capacity, and body composition in older women
conclusions independent of the training sequence, an 8-week concurrent training program caused positive changes in the body composition and physical fitness of our aged female subjects. however, there was no benefit derived from sequence order training. results the intra-session sequence order did not influence the adaptive response of the waist-to-hip ratio (p = 0.55), body fat percentage (bf ...
متن کاملArterial compliance of rowers: implications for combined aerobic and strength training on arterial elasticity.
Regular endurance exercise increases central arterial compliance, whereas resistance training decreases it. It is not known how the vasculature adapts to a combination of endurance and resistance training. Rowing is unique, because its training encompasses endurance- and strength-training components. We used a cross-sectional study design to determine arterial compliance of 15 healthy, habitual...
متن کاملEffects of Swiss-ball core strength training on strength, endurance, flexibility, and balance in sedentary women.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Swiss-ball core strength training on trunk extensor (abdominal)/flexor (lower back) and lower limb extensor (quadriceps)/flexor (hamstring) muscular strength, abdominal, lower back and leg endurance, flexibility and dynamic balance in sedentary women (n = 21; age = 34 ± 8.09; height = 1.63 ± 6.91 cm; weight = 64 ± 8.69 kg) trained for ...
