abstract: this research was done to determine the effect of using l-carnitine and selected exercises on aerobic capacity and blood lactate. in this study 30 unathletes students of shahid rajaee university took part with the age of 22/63±1/75, height: 176 cm, weight 71/33±1 and bmi: 23/17±2/6. subjects randomly divided into 3 groups, control group who were doing the selected exercises, experimen...

OBJECTIVES To compare the physiological and anthropometric characteristics of specific playing positions and positional playing groups in junior rugby league players. METHODS Two hundred and forty junior rugby league players underwent measurements of standard anthropometry (body mass, height, sum of four skinfolds), muscular power (vertical jump), speed (10, 20, and 40 m sprint), agility (L r...

Purpose: Allometry is a method to express the relationship between physiological and anatomical variables. It can be used to measure the vital capacity through mathematical equations. This study aimed at evaluating lung function indices to estimate the maximal aerobic power by respiratory gas analysis device and the allometric equation. Methods: This study was a descriptive and correlational r...

The aim of the present study was to compare the aerobic and anaerobic power and capacity of elite male basketball players who played multiple positions. Fifty-five healthy players were divided into the following three different subsamples according to their positional role: guards (n = 22), forwards (n = 19) and centers (n = 14). The following three tests were applied to estimate their aerobic ...

OBJECTIVES To determine the effects of aerobic and power exercise training on haemostatic factors after coronary artery surgery and to compare the effect of the two exercise programmes. DESIGN A prospective randomised controlled study of six months aerobic and power exercise training in men after coronary artery surgery. SETTING Exercise rehabilitation classes in a teaching hospital in Glas...

OBJECTIVES To investigate if reductions in pre-season training loads reduced the incidence of training injuries in rugby league players, and to determine if the reductions in training loads compromised the improvements in physical fitness obtained during the pre-season preparation period. METHODS A total of 220 sub-elite rugby league players participated in this 3 year prospective study. Play...

1. Methylene blue has no catalytic effect on the oxygen consumption of those normal adult tissues which do not possess aerobic glycolysis. The dye increases the oxygen consumption of these tissues when their respiration has been inhibited by the addition of KCN and their fermentative power thus brought into action. 2. Methylene blue increases the oxygen consumption of normal tissues having aero...
