conclusions performing large muscle group exercises first in re training and progressing to small muscle group produced greater anabolic hormonal response relative to reverse sequence in normal-weight young adult men. anabolic hormonal response to reos was blunted in the obese group. results reos did not affect number of repetitions in none of the groups. the average rating of perceived exertio...

background: ascorbic acid (vitamin c) is one of the most commonly water soluble vitamins. extra energy is necessary for the exercise is not often attributed to intake of vitamin c, long-term and intense exercise can lead to oxidative damage to cellular compounds and also contribute to muscle fatigue and decrease exercise performance. limited data are available regarding to the efficacy of vitam...

background and purpose: recent reports suggest that increased homocysteine is a risk factor for heart disease. on the other hand, regular exercise and supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids have been effective in reducing these diseases. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the interaction effect of 8 weeks of aerobic training and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on plasma homocysteine c...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of acute plyometric exercise with and without vitamin c supplementation on serum bdnf concentration in inactive men. in this semi-experimental study, 36 inactive men were randomly divided into four groups: vitamin+exercise (combination), vitamin c, exercise, and control. the exercise and combination groups performed the selected plyometric pro...

conclusions exercise test performance was affected by lower quality of life and lower physical activity after lt. with the exception of hypertension, well known factors that affect the risk of coronary artery disease had no effect on the exercise test results. objectives this study examined potential relationships between physical activity, health-related quality of life (hrqol), risk factors f...

conclusions the findings suggest that chronic coadministration of nandrolone with moderate-intensity endurance exercise facilitates the vf occurrence in rat. complementary studies are needed to elucidate the involved mechanisms of this abnormality. results nandrolone, exercise, and their combination were associated with heart hypertrophy. exercise could prevent the incremental effect of nandrol...

objectives: the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of gender on plasma myostatin at rest and in response to acute resistance exercise in elderly men and women. methods & materials: 12 healthy older men (age=69±1.23 and bmi=23±0.3 kg/m2) and 12 healthy older women (age=68±2.14 and bmi=23±0.4 kg/m2) volunteered for participation in this study. 72hours after the determination of musc...

purpose post exercise proteinuria and increased urinary gamma-glutamyl transferase (ggt) levels can be indicative of exercise-induced renal damage. the aim of this investigation is to study the effect of one session of intensive training on renal damage markers and compare their values to those 6 hours after training. methods in this cross-sectional study with pre- and post-test design, 10 elit...
