Cycling Wheelchair Provides Enjoyable Pedaling Exercises with Increased Physiological Indexes.
The cycling wheelchair (CWC) can be used as a pedaling exercise machine. However, physiological indexes in the CWC at various pedaling rates and the difference between the CWC and the existing pedaling machines such as the portable ergometer (ERG) are unclear. The aim of this study was to measure physiological indexes in the CWC at various pedaling rates and compare the CWC to the ERG, focusing...
متن کاملThe influence of pedaling rate on bilateral asymmetry in cycling.
The objectives of this study were to (1) determine whether bilateral asymmetry in cycling changed systematically with pedaling rate, (2) determine whether the dominant leg as identified by kicking contributed more to average power over a crank cycle than the other leg, and (3) determine whether the dominant leg asymmetry changed systematically with pedaling rate. To achieve these objectives, da...
متن کاملLaboratory versus outdoor cycling conditions: differences in pedaling biomechanics.
The aim of our study was to compare crank torque profile and perceived exertion between the Monark ergometer (818 E) and two outdoor cycling conditions: level ground and uphill road cycling. Seven male cyclists performed seven tests in seated position at different pedaling cadences: (a) in the laboratory at 60, 80, and 100 rpm; (b) on level terrain at 80 and 100 rpm; and (c) on uphill terrain (...
متن کاملOptimal Pedaling Technique for Sprint Cycling: a Computer Simulation Study
A musculoskeletal model was developed to determine the theoretically optimal pedaling technique (quantified as pedal forces and kinematics) for sprint cycling. Input was a set of stimulation patterns for the eight major muscle groups in the lower extremity, output are the kinematics and forces predicted by a direct dynamics simulation. Stimulation patterns were optimized until maximal average p...
متن کاملIncreased gastrin gene expression provides a physiological advantage to mice under hypoxic conditions.
Hypoxia, or a low concentration of O2, is encountered in humans undertaking activities such as mountain climbing and scuba diving and is important pathophysiologically as a limiting factor in tumor growth. Although data on the interplay between hypoxia and gastrins are limited, gastrin expression is upregulated by hypoxia in gastrointestinal cancer cell lines, and gastrins counterbalance hypoxi...
