the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 6 weeks of resistance training on morphological indicators of untrained women's heart health. for this purpose, 20 sedentary females (22/6±18 years old, 162/3±6/5 cm height, 58±5/1 kg weight, 18/3±5/2% percentage of fat and the surface of body: 1/62±0/15 m2) were selected randomly and assigned to two experimental (n = 10) and control (...

Skeletal muscle metabolic and contractile properties are reliant on muscle mitochondrial and myofibrillar protein turnover. The turnover of these specific protein pools is compromised during disease, aging, and inactivity. Oppositely, exercise can accentuate muscle protein turnover, thereby counteracting decay in muscle function. According to a traditional consensus, endurance exercise is requi...

Blood hypercoagulability or thrombogenicity can be one of the main causes of the cardiovascular diseases in young population without traditional pathologic risk factors such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension or hyperlipidemia. The effect of aerobic exercise on coagulation and fibrinolysis has been studied extensively Regarding to the effectivness of resistance exercises to increase functional...

“KAATSU Training”, was first made available for public use in Japan.1 Since then, numerous studies have examined the effects of BFR resistance exercise on skeletal muscle hypertrophy and strength gains, as well as on neural, endocrine, and cardiovascular responses. The novelty of BFR resistance exercise is that relatively low exercise intensities (e.g. 20% of one-repetition maximum, 1-RM) can b...

Introduction: Obesity and visceral fat accumulation after menopause are associated with insulin resistance and cardiovascular diseases. We investigated the interactive effect of aerobic-resistance training and estrogen replacement therapy on visceral fat, omentin-1 and HOMA-IR in ovariectomized rats. Materials and Methods: Fifty female Wistar rats were ovariectomized (OVX) and divided into 5 gr...
