the aim of the present study was to examine the effect of 8 weeks of resistance training and hmb supplementation on serum myostatin levels of non-athlete men. in this quasi-experimental study, 20 non-athlete men voluntarily participated in the study and were divided into experimental group (n=10, mean age 28.75±1.39 yr, height 179.83±4.30 cm, weight 81±5.27 kg and bf% 28.65±6.40) and control gr...

conclusions performing large muscle group exercises first in re training and progressing to small muscle group produced greater anabolic hormonal response relative to reverse sequence in normal-weight young adult men. anabolic hormonal response to reos was blunted in the obese group. results reos did not affect number of repetitions in none of the groups. the average rating of perceived exertio...

abstract introduction: since balance maintenance is one of the indices of determining independence in older people, identifying factors that have some effects on it appears to be an interesting research issue. the aim of this study was to compare the effects of aquatic training; mental training and concurrent training (both aquatic and mental training) on balance in normal elderly males. materi...
