To investigate and describe the influence of intra-articular effusion on knee joint kinematics and electromyographic (EMG) profiles during jogging. Thirteen individuals underwent a 20 cc 0.9% saline insufflation of the knee joint capsule and completed 8 jogging trials. Stance phase, sagittal plane knee joint kinematics and thigh muscular EMG profiles were compared pre- and post-insufflation uti...

studies in the disciplines of epidemiology, work physiology, psychology, and biochemistry have all pointed towards a beneficial effect of physical activity on health, but the optimal intensity, frequency, and duration of physical activity has yet to be established. Although our study was observational, the men were randomly selected from a general population. The estimated effect of jogging did...

OBJECTIVES to investigate the effects of regular Tai Chi (TC) or jogging exercise on neuromuscular reaction in older people. DESIGN cross-sectional study. SETTING university biomechanics laboratory. SUBJECTS 21 long-term elderly TC practitioners were compared with 18 regular elderly joggers and 22 sedentary counterparts. MEASUREMENTS electromyography (EMG) was used to detect the neuromu...

Sir, In your new feature 'Medicine and the Media' (8th July, p. 121) you mention my contribution to what you considered a muddled feature on the hazards of jogging in Tonight (BBC 1, 28 June). Perhaps the inside story may be of help to some of your readers as an example of what happens to the naive clinician when faced with the media. I am tending now very strongly to the view that the producer...

Aim: To determine the efficacy of an Aqua-AeroFit, a Water-Based Exercise program, on cardiorespiratory endurance patients with psychiatric conditions in selected rehabilitation centers. Methods: This study had quasi-experimental design 30 participants assigned to water-based exercise program and land-based program. All were center. The water consisted Aqua jogging for 10 mins, Aqua-Aero Zumba ...

This study investigated the effect of the officiating role on physical activity profiles of rugby league match officials during match-play. Physical performance indicators were collated from 23 match officials, resulting in 78 observations. Match officials were categorised into two groups: referees and touch judges. Microtechnology facilitated the quantification of total distance (m), relative ...

The pandemic due to Covid-19 can cause problems in Indonesia, especially on health that are mostly experienced by people who located the Sukarindik Village area, Tasikmalaya City. Therefore, order solve problem occurred Village, Tasikmalaya, carried out 2021 Thematic PPM KKN activity program through post-Covid-19 physical rehabilitation measures form of breathing exercises, relaxation, exercise...

BACKGROUND Assessment of health benefits associated with physical activity depend on the activity duration, intensity and frequency, therefore their correct identification is very valuable and important in epidemiological and clinical studies. The aims of this study are: to develop an algorithm for automatic identification of intended jogging periods; and to assess whether the identification pe...
