Improving mental regeneration after physical exercise
Background Nutritional interventions to improve physical regeneration after exercise are usual practice among recreational and professional athletes. Frequent strategies include rehydration, in addition to supplementation with macronutrients to replenish depleted glycogen stores, or to support muscle growth and/or maintenance. Physically challenging exercise results in a significant activation ...
متن کاملAssessing maximal exercise capacity: peak work or peak oxygen consumption?
BACKGROUND Exercise capacity assessed by cardiopulmonary exercise testing is usually measured by peak oxygen consumption (VO2). However, not uncommonly, patients achieve a relatively higher work load (peak work) compared to their peak VO2. In these situations it is difficult to know which parameter to use in assessing exercise capacity. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there a...
متن کاملDoes an exercise intervention improving aerobic capacity among construction workers also improve musculoskeletal pain, work ability, productivity, perceived physical exertion, and sick leave?: a randomized controlled trial.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether an exercise intervention shown to increase aerobic capacity, would also lead to less musculoskeletal pain; improved work ability, productivity, and perceived physical exertion; and less sick leave. METHODS Sixty-seven construction workers were randomized into an exercise group training 3 × 20 minutes per week and a control group. Questionnaires and text messag...
متن کاملPhysical work capacity and lung function in competitive swimmers.
Competitive swimmers require a high aerobic capacity to support the sustained performance of severe exercise. Maximal oxygen uptake values and blood lactate concentrations were measured in ten male and fifteen female swimmers from the Scottish National and Youth Squads 1981-82. Lung function tests were also performed to determine pulmonary efficiency. The results of these studies were compared ...
متن کامل[Aerobic exercise improves physical capacity in patients under chronic hemodialysis].
BACKGROUND In the general population, regular practice of physical exercises is associated with improved physical capacity and reduction of cardiovascular events. Concerning patients with chronic kidney disease, a population with significant impairment of physical capacity and high rates of cardiovascular mortality, few studies have evaluated the effects of physical activity. OBJECTIVE To eva...
