It is well established that glycogen depletion affects endurance exercise performance negatively. Moreover, numerous studies have demonstrated that post-exercise carbohydrate ingestion improves exercise recovery by increasing glycogen resynthesis. However, recent research into the effects of glycogen availability sheds new light on the role of the widely accepted energy source for adenosine tri...

Abtract Introduction: Visfatin is a newly discovered adipokine which is highly expressed in visceral adipose tissue that may induces changes in insulin resistance. The Aim of this study was to examine the Effect of Endurance Exercise on Visfatin and Insulin Levels In Obese Women. Method: present research is a semi-empirical study that 10 obese female volunteers (age 35.6±7.12 y, body mass in...

Endurance exercise training increases smooth muscle L-type Ca(2+) current density in both resistance and proximal coronary arteries of female miniature swine. The purpose of the present study was to determine 1) whether gender differences exist in coronary smooth muscle (CSM) L-type Ca(2+) current density and 2) whether endurance training in males would demonstrate a similar adaptive response a...

The primary objective of this investigation was to identify which components of endurance training (e.g., modality, duration, frequency) are detrimental to resistance training outcomes. A meta-analysis of 21 studies was performed with a total of 422 effect sizes (ESs). Criteria for the study included were (a) compare strength training alone to strength plus endurance training (concurrent) or to...

UNLABELLED Regular running and strength training are the best ways to improve aerobic capacity and develop the size of skeletal muscles. However, uncontrolled physical activities can often lead to an undertraining or over-training syndrome. In particular, overtraining causes persistent fatigue and reduces physical performance due to changes in the various physiological and immunological factors...

Bowles, D. K. Gender influences coronary L-type Ca21 current and adaptation to exercise training in miniature swine. J Appl Physiol 91: 2503–2510, 2001.— Endurance exercise training increases smooth muscle L-type Ca21 current density in both resistance and proximal coronary arteries of female miniature swine. The purpose of the present study was to determine 1) whether gender differences exist ...

Concurrent training involving resistance and endurance exercise may augment the benefits of single-mode training for the purpose of improving health. However, muscle adaptations, associated with resistance exercise, may be blunted by a subsequent bout of endurance exercise, via molecular interference. High-intensity interval training (HIIT), generating similar adaptations to endurance exercise,...

the aim of the present study was to examine the effect of 8 weeks of concurrent training on the plasma myostatin levels in non-athlete obese men. this research was quasi-experimental. for this purpose, 23 overweight non-athlete men voluntarily participated in this study and were assigned to concurrent training group (n=12, mean age 21.38±2.06 yr, height 173.65±7.07 cm, weight 86.61±15.05 kg and...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in the body composition, body size, muscle strength, and VO2max after 24 weeks of resistance or endurance training and detraining in young men. Thirty healthy college-aged men (20.4 ± 1.36 years) participated in the study. Subjects were assigned to resistance training group (RTG, n = 10), endurance training group (ETG, n = 10), and contro...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare adaptations in functional and quality of life measures following endurance- and resistance-exercise training in people with multiple sclerosis. DESIGN Cross-over design with an eight-week washout period. SETTING Community health centre. SUBJECTS Sixteen individuals with multiple sclerosis. INTERVENTION Subjects completed both an eight-w...
