Effects of resistance training on endurance capacity and muscle fiber composition in young top-level cyclists.

Effects of strength training on endurance capacity in top-level endurance athletes.

The effect of concurrent strength (S) and endurance (E) training on adaptive changes in aerobic capacity, endurance performance, maximal muscle strength and muscle morphology is equivocal. Some data suggest an attenuated cardiovascular and musculoskeletal response to combined E and S training, while other data show unimpaired or even superior adaptation compared with either training regime alon...

High Intensity Exercise in Multiple Sclerosis: Effects on Muscle Contractile Characteristics and Exercise Capacity, a Randomised Controlled Trial

INTRODUCTION Low-to-moderate intensity exercise improves muscle contractile properties and endurance capacity in multiple sclerosis (MS). The impact of high intensity exercise remains unknown. METHODS Thirty-four MS patients were randomized into a sedentary control group (SED, n = 11) and 2 exercise groups that performed 12 weeks of a high intensity interval (HITR, n = 12) or high intensity c...

Effect of concurrent training (endurance-resistance) on serum level of prostate specific antigen (PSA), cardiorespiratory endurance, muscular strength and body composition in men over 50

The Effects of Resistance Training With and Without Electrical Muscle Stimulation on Body Composition of Obese Women

Background and Purpose: Nowadays, total body resistance exercise has been added to instability training and has become popular for improving health and sports performance. Resistance training is a beneficial way to improve body composition and increase muscle strength. This study aims to evaluate the effect of suspension training (total resistance exercises [TRX]) with and without electrical mu...

The Effect of Combined Training (Endurance- Resistance) and Ginger Supplementation on Cardiorespiratory Endurance, Body Composition and Insulin Resistance among Obese Females with Type 2 Diabetes

Background & objectives: Diabetes mellitus, as a metabolic disease, is associated with impaired insulin resistance index and cardiovascular risk factors. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a concurrent exercise and Ginger supplementation on cardiorespiratory endurance, body composition, and insulin resistance index in obese women with type 2 diabetes. Methods: 60 women ...
