Aging induces structural and functional changes in the heart that are associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and impaired functional capacity in the elderly. Exercise is a diagnostic and therapeutic tool, with the potential to provide insights into clinical diagnosis and prognosis, as well as the molecular mechanisms by which aging influences cardiac physiology and function. I...

Suboptimal breathing patterns and impairments of posture and trunk stability are often associated with musculoskeletal complaints such as low back pain. A therapeutic exercise that promotes optimal posture (diaphragm and lumbar spine position), and neuromuscular control of the deep abdominals, diaphragm, and pelvic floor (lumbar-pelvic stabilization) is desirable for utilization with patients w...

ABSTRACT Introduction Exercise intensity can approach an individual’s maximum capacity rapidly. High-intensity exercise improve aerobic in obesity, overweight, heart disease, and diabetes. Knowledge of the physiological biochemical changes post-workout period could provide safety indexes for a scientific basis. Objective To evaluate immediate adolescents submitted to high-intensity sports train...
