Studies have shown that different exercise ways are of the most important factors that affect cardiovascular risk factors and hematological parameters. This present paper aims to study the effects of two methods of endurance and resistance training on lipid profiles, heart rate, and hematological parameters in obese male students. 36 obese students were purposefully selected and randomly divi...

recently, the role of myostatin (mstn) in controlling insulin resistance (ir( has been known. the aim of this study was to determine acute and delayed response of mstn and ir to circuit resistance exercise. for this purpose, 12 healthy men volunteered and participated in 2 sessions of the resistance exercise and control with one-week interval. after a session to instruct how to perform resistan...

The hepatokine fetuin-A can together with free fatty acids (FFAs) enhance adipose tissue (AT) inflammation and insulin resistance via toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Although some of the health benefits of exercise can be explained by altered release of myokines from the skeletal muscle, it is not well documented if some of the beneficial effects of exercise can be explained by altered secretion o...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Electrical stimulation has been used to assess skeletal muscle resistance to fatigue. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that 12 weeks of intense endurance exercise training on a bicycle ergometer would reduce the percentage of decline in quadriceps femoris muscle torque during an electrically elicited fatigue test. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Eleven nondisab...

objectives: investigating the effect of endurance training program onthe gait pattern of non-active elderly people. methods & materials: this study has been done by a semi-experience method with 23 old men and women by the average and standard deviation of 70/50±6/9 years old (n=14 people of exercise group, n=9 people of control group). the exercise group took part in this program for eight wee...

Both exercise and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) are known to have major hypertrophic effects in skeletal muscle; however, the interactive effect of exogenous IGF-I and exercise on muscle protein turnover or the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway has not been reported. In the present study, we have examined the interaction between endurance exercise training and IGF-I treatment on muscle protei...

The condition of the respiratory system is more important for endurance exercise performance of healthy subjects than hitherto assumed. Not only do respiratory muscles fatigue during intensive endurance exercise, but prefatigued respiratory muscles can also impair performance. In turn, respiratory endurance training can improve endurance exercise performance.

Do you constantly battle muscle cramps during intense or long training? Does muscular weakness prevent you from putting forth full effort? Do asthmatic symptoms prevent you from completing workouts? Does it feel as if your heart skips a beat, causing feelings of lightheadedness and dizziness? Are physical returns from an intensive strength training program less than anticipated? If you answered...
