UNLABELLED Exercise training is known to increase intramuscular triglyceride content in both trained and untrained legs. The purpose of the study was to determine the changes of intramyocellular lipids (IMCL) and extramyocellular lipids (EMCL) of both trained and untrained legs during detraining. We measured both IMCL and EMCL levels in previously trained vs. untrained legs during 4-weeks of de...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to assess the combined exercise programs (12 weeks' physical exercise training, resistance and aerobic) and 6 weeks' detraining on the correlation of metabolic syndrome (MS) markers and plasma adiponectin level in two groups. METHODS Participants were divided into two groups [physical exercise training group (EG, n = 8) and control group (CG, n = 7)]. T...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of detraining on motor unit potential area (SMUP), muscular function and physical performance, according to CNTF gene polymorphism. METHODS For this study, GG (normal homozygote, n = 8) group and GA + AA (mutation heterozygote and homozygote, n = 10) group were divided by CNTF gene polymorphism and both groups were performed detrain...

INTRODUCTION Detraining is the loss of improvements obtained through the participation in physical exercise/training after training cessation, an aspect that has been poorly studied in obese child population. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess the effects of detraining on the lipid profile (HDL, LDL, total cholesterol and triglycerides) of obese children. POPULATION AND METHOD...

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...

The purpose of this study was to compare strength training with and without superimposed electromyostimulation (EMS) on muscle strength and anaerobic power. Twenty-eight subjects were assigned to: weight+EMS (ES), weight (VOL), or control group (CG). ES and VOL performed 4 training sessions per week during 4 weeks on a knee extension machine (8 sets; 8 repetitions; 1-second concentric phase fro...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of stretching and/or resistive exercise, followed by detraining, on the functional status of older people. METHODS Forty-five subjects were divided into four groups: control (CG; n=13; 66±6 years), stretching (SG; n=10; 69±6 years), resistive exercise (RG; n=13; 69±5 years), and resistive exercise and stretching (RSG; n=9; 66±5 years). The CG did not perform ...
