the present study examined the effect of endurance training on lipid profile, body weight and cardiovascular endurance in normal male rats after bunium persicum extract administration. 40 experimental male rats were divided into 5 groups: control, placebo, endurance training (et), bunium persicum extract administer (bpea) and et – bpea group. the exercise protocol was performed at a speed of 25...

It has been repeatedly demonstrated that the tolerable duration (t) of high-intensity cycling is well characterized as a hyperbolic function of power (P) with an asymptote that has been termed the "fatigue threshold" and with a curvature constant. This hyperbolic P-t relationship has also been confirmed in running and swimming, when speed (V) is used instead of P; that is, (V - V(F)). t = D', w...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of severe acute hypoxia on exercise performance and metabolism during 30-s Wingate tests. Five endurance- (E) and five sprint- (S) trained track cyclists from the Spanish National Team performed 30-s Wingate tests in normoxia and hypoxia (inspired O(2) fraction = 0.10). Oxygen deficit was estimated from submaximal cycling economy tests by use of...

For soldiers, surviving the war, increasing their mission capability rates, and physical fitness levels such as endurance, strength, mobility, and flexibility are important (1). In particular, endurance is an important physical fitness factor essential while soldiers perform their missions (1). Blood lactate threshold (LT) is an excellent pre-dictor of an individual's endurance capacity (2); th...

background: it is widely recognized that neuromuscular function is temperature sensitive. changes in muscle temperature may affect muscle force development. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of temperature on wrist flexor muscles endurance. methods: fifteen healthy subjects (mean age  21.13 ±1.30 years) participated in the present study.  the wrist flexor muscles endurance wa...

OBJECTIVE To determine if there is an association between supine leg-length alignment (LLA) asymmetry and the endurance of the erector spinae (ES) and quadratus lumborum (QL) muscles. METHODS Forty-seven subjects (21 women; average age, 36 years old) were tested for ES endurance using the Biering-Sorensen (B-S) test, and 69 (31 women; average age, 34.5 years) were tested for QL endurance. Sub...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of endurance, resistance and concurrent training on plasma leptin levels of male students. for this purpose, 48 male university students (mean age 21.45 years) participated in this study. subjects were randomly assigned to three exercise groups: endurance group (n=12), resistance group (n=12) and concurrent group (n=12) and a control group (n=...

background: the purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of endurance training on amount of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nachr) in fast and slow twitch muscles of male wistar rats. methods: a number of 15 male wistar rats randomly divided into two groups of control (n=7) and endurance training (n=8). the endurance training treadmill running (for 12 consecutive week, 5 da...
