in aim of this research was to investigate the effect of a decrease in the number of practice sessions and an increase in exercise intensity on aerobic and anaerobic power, body fat percentage, and body mass index. 80 subjects (average age: 20.2±1.53 years and height: 160.18±5.43cm) were divided into 4 groups (3 experimental groups and one control group). the experimental groups exercised with ...

BACKGROUND It has been suggested that strength training effects (i.e. neural or structural) vary, depending on the total repetitions performed and velocity loss in each training set. PURPOSE The aim of this study is to compare the effects of two training programmes (i.e. one with loads that maximise power output and individualised repetitions, and the other following traditional power trainin...

Olympic weightlifting movements and their variations are believed to be among the most effective ways to improve power, strength, and speed in athletes. This study investigated the effects of two Olympic weightlifting variations (hang cleans and hang snatches), on power (vertical jump height), strength (1RM back squat), and speed (40-yard sprint) in female collegiate athletes. 23 NCAA Division ...

We determined the effect of muscle glycogen concentration and postexercise nutrition on anabolic signaling and rates of myofibrillar protein synthesis after resistance exercise (REX). Sixteen young, healthy men matched for age, body mass, peak oxygen uptake (Vo(2peak)) and strength (one repetition maximum; 1RM) were randomly assigned to either a nutrient or placebo group. After 48 h diet and ex...

This study aimed to clarify the relationships between isometric squat (IS) using a back dynamometer and 1 repetition maximum (1RM) squat for maximum force and muscle activities and to examine the effectiveness of a 1RM estimation method based on IS. The subjects were 15 young men with weight training experience (mean age 20.7 ± 0.8 years, mean height 171.3 ± 4.4 cm, mean weight 64.4 ± 8.4 kg). ...

The aim was to investigate the effects of concurrent exercise at moderate (MO) and light (LI) intensity on post-exercise hypotension (PEH). Ten women with borderline hypertension were submitted to the experimental procedure consisting of three sessions. In the MO session, the participants ran on the treadmill for 22 minutes at 65% of HRmax and then performed 5 resistance exercises against resis...

Formation of GMCs is one of the most crucial issues in galaxy evolution. I will compare CO and HI in the LMC in 3 dimensional space for the first time aiming at revealing the physical connection between GMCs and associated HI gas at a ∼ 40 pc scale. The present major findings are 1) [total CO intensity] ∝ [total HI intensity] for the 110 GMCs, and 2) the HI intensity tends to increase with the ...

The purpose of this investigation was to examine the effects of diet on muscle triglyceride and endurance performance. Seven endurance-trained men completed a 120-min cycling bout at 65% of maximal oxygen uptake. Each subject then ingested an isocaloric high-carbohydrate (Hi-CHO; 83% of energy) or a high-fat (Hi-Fat; 68% of energy) diet for the ensuing 12 h. After a 12-h overnight fast, a 1,600...
