background: multiple sclerosis (ms) is a neurological disease with a variety of signs and symptoms. exercise therapy has been shown to improve physical functions in ms. however, questions about an optimal exercise therapy remain. in this regard, we suggest a combined exercise therapy including aerobic and resistance exercises for ms patients. the study is designed to observe, test and compare t...

Sorts of abnormal state, obesity and inflammation are involved in a number of serious disease occurring and both of them became important research topics among molecular biologists. UCP-2 and TNF-α respectively reflecting obese and inflammatory status have often been used to evaluate the effects of independent variable, such as exercise, on them. Because exercise has shown its potent control on...

throughout a lifetime is essential for a favorable quality of life. Like most human tissue, skeletal muscle is highly plastic and is capable of responding to a stimulus through a network of anabolic signaling which results in growth and increases in strength. Skeletal muscle functions as the largest disposal site of ingested glucose 1, plays an important role in lipid oxidation 2, 3, and is one...

Objective: This study aimed to compare the effect of eight weeks of traditional resistance training and total body resistance exercise (TRX) on the immune system of obese sedentary women. Materials and Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 28 obese women with a mean body mass index (BMI) of 30.39± 4.65 (kg/m2) were randomly divided into three groups of TRX training (N= 9), traditional res...

BACKGROUND Resistance exercise is effective to increase muscle strength for older adults; however, its effect on the outcome of activities of daily living is often limited. The purpose of this study was to examine whether 3-Step Workout for Life (which combines resistance exercise, functional exercise, and activities of daily living exercise) would be more beneficial than resistance exercise al...
