the purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of endurance (et), resistance (rt) and concurrent training (ct) on plasma levels of visfatin, insulin, glucose and insulin resistance of non-athlete men with obesity. it was a semi-experimental study. thirty six men [age: 21.48 (0.25), and bf%: 27.39 (0.52)], voluntarily participated in this study after public announcement in univer...

the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of two programs of standard sets and circuit weight training with different intensities on response of excess post exercise oxygen consumption (epoc) in young men. for this purpose, twelve healthy men (mean±sd: age, 21.92±1.1 years; height, 175.17±4.55cm; weight, 69.74±7.5kg) were voluntarily selected and participated in two stages of t...

objective(s) homocysteine, hs-crp and fibrinogen are three novel cardiovascular risk factors. the aim of this study was to examine the effect of a single bout of circuit resistance exercise on homocysteine, hs-crp and fibrinogen levels in healthy and inactive men. materials and methods the subjects were randomly divided into the experimental group (n= 14) and the control group (n= 9). circuit t...

in this research, active capacitance circuit and the feature of negative resistance are analysed in details. also, a new active filter is presented based on active capacitance circuit. for simulations, we used matlab and advanced design system(ads). proposed active filter (rf) is a narrow band filter. the results of simulation shows some aspects of sustainability and low noise feature. the circ...

The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate the effectiveness of whole body vibration (WBV) training as a modality for inducing changes in body composition, cardiovascular condition, and muscular strength in sedentary postmenopausal women. WBV training was compared with other training regimens, ie, aerobic training and circuit resistance training, commonly used to promote weight loss, cardi...

an increase in c-reactive protein inflammatory indicator and lipid profile is accompanied with an increase in cardiovascular risks. however, the effect of resistance exercises on these cardiovascular risk factors in females is unknown.the aim of this study was to examine the effect of 12 weeks of circuit exercise on c-reactive protein and lipid profile in inactive women.for this purpose, 24 you...

BACKGROUND Ghrelin and obestatin are orexigenic and anorexigenic peptides, respectively. It appears that an accurate balance between theses peptides is important for regulating energy homeostasis and body weight. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to identify the possible mechanisms by which circuit resistance training influences energy homeostasis and weight control. PATIENTS AND METHODS...
