Aerobic conditioned muscle shows increased oxidative metabolism or glucose relative to untrained muscle at a given absolute exercise intensity. The studies of a targeted risk reduction intervention through defined exercise (STRRIDE) study is an aerobic exercise intervention in men and women with features of metabolic syndrome (Kraus WE, Torgan CE, Duscha BD, Norris J, Brown SA, Cobb FR, Bales C...

BACKGROUND Research indicates that exercise can have a positive effect on both physical and mental health in nursing home patients with dementia, however the lasting effect is rarely studied. In a previously published article we investigated the immediate effect of a 12 weeks functional exercise program on physical function and mental health in nursing home residents with dementia. In this pape...

OBJECTIVES To study the effects of eight weeks of supervised, low intensity resistance training (80% of 10 repetition maximum (10RM)) and eight weeks of detraining on muscle strength and blood lipid profiles in healthy, sedentary postmenopausal women. SUBJECTS Fifteen postmenopausal women, aged 49-62 years, took part in the study. Subjects were assigned to either a control (n = 7) or training...

obesity is accompanied with renal dysfunction, so renal impairment is more prevalent in obese people. renal function can be assessed via markers such as cystatin c (cys c), creatinine (crn) and glomerular filtration rate (gfr). as the effect of exercise training on renal function has been less investigated, this study aimed to study the effect of eight weeks of aerobic training and 10 days of d...

Introduction: Hamstring strain injury (HSI) is the leading cause of time lost from competition in running-based sports. Following return to sport, individuals with previous HSI often have persistent deficits hamstring muscle strength, architecture and morphology. Considerable research effort has gone into identifying ways address these variables, as they been associated future risk. Eccentric k...
