Time course and mechanisms of adaptations in cardiorespiratory fitness with endurance training in older and young men.

چکیده
The time-course and mechanisms of adaptation of cardiorespiratory fitness were examined in 8 older (O) (68 +/- 7 yr old) and 8 young (Y) (23 +/- 5 yr old) men pretraining and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 wk of training. Training was performed on a cycle ergometer three times per week for 45 min at approximately 70% of maximal oxygen uptake (Vo(2 max)). Vo(2 max) increased within 3 wk with further increases observed posttraining in both O (+31%) and Y (+18%), (P < 0.05). Maximal cardiac output (Q(max), open-circuit acetylene) and stroke volume were higher in O and Y after 3 wk with further increases after 9 wk of training (P < 0.05). Maximal arterial-venous oxygen difference (a-vO(2 diff)) was higher at weeks 3 and 6 and posttraining compared with pretraining in O and Y (P < 0.05). In O, approximately 69% of the increase in Vo(2 max) from pre- to posttraining was explained by an increased Q(max) with the remaining approximately 31% explained by a widened a-vO(2 diff). This proportion of Q and a-vO(2 diff) contributions to the increase in Vo(2 max) was consistent throughout testing in O. In Y, 56% of the pre- to posttraining increase in Vo(2 max) was attributed to a greater Q(max) and 44% to a widened a-vO(2 diff). Early adaptations (first 3 wk) mainly relied on a widened maximal a-vO(2 diff) (approximately 66%) whereas further increases in Vo(2 max) were exclusively explained by a greater Q(max). In conclusion, with short-term training O and Y significantly increased their Vo(2 max); however, the proportion of Vo(2 max) increase explained by Q(max) and maximal a-vO(2 diff) throughout training showed a different pattern by age group.

Relationship between Quality of Life and Cardiorespiratory Endurance in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
Background & Aims: Diabetes is a metabolic disease characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and impaired metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. This disease is caused by defects in insulin secretion, insulin function, or both (1, 2). This chronic disease can have serious short-term and long-term consequences that affect the health and quality of life (QOL) of patients (3). Type 2 diabe...

High-intensity interval training (HIT) induces skeletal muscle metabolic and performance adaptations that resemble traditional endurance training despite a low total exercise volume. On the other hand, fatty acid oxidation is increases in skeletal muscle with endurance training. This process is regulated in several sites, including the transport of fatty acids across the plasma membrane. The...

Introduction: Aging is one of the stages of life that needs special attention due to the special conditions of this period of life. Inactivity and myasthenia due to aging are important factors in reducing the physical and functional readiness of the elderly, which can reduce their quality of life. On the other hand, electromyostimulation (EMS) is one of the modern training methods that can be s...
