Resistance (muscle strengthening) exercise is a key component of exercise recommendations for weight control yet very little is known about the effects of resistance exercise on appetite. We investigated the effects of resistance and aerobic exercise on hunger and circulating levels of the gut hormones acylated ghrelin and peptide YY (PYY). Eleven healthy male students: age 21.1 ± 0.3 y, body m...

To the Editor: We thank Kurtoglu and colleagues for their interest in our article, “Aerobic Exercise Training Decreases Plasma Asymmetric Dimethylarginine Concentrations with Increase in Arterial Compliance in Postmenopausal Women.”1 We demonstrated that 12 weeks of aerobic exercise training decreased plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) concentrations in postmenopausal women. In their Let...

The effects of aerobic exercise training in a sample of 85 older adults were investigated. Ss were assigned randomly to either an aerobic exercise group, a nonaerobic exercise (yoga) group, or a waiting-list control group. Following 16 weeks of the group-specific protocol, all of the older Ss received 16 weeks of aerobic exercise training. The older adults demonstrated a significant increase in...

Objective: Standard compression stockings are used to create elastic pressure in correcting and maintaining the hemodynamics of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and prevent limb swelling in patients with DVT. This study aimed to compare the effect of aerobic exercise with lower extremity elastic pressure on some hematological features of obese patients with DVT. Materials and Methods: For this purpo...

objective: the recent study aimed to investigate the effects of chronic aerobic activity on the plasma levels of orexin a, leptin, glucose, insulin, and insulin resistance in males with type 2 diabetes. materials and methods: twenty subjects randomly assigned into control and experimental groups, involving 10 people in each group. exercise protocol consisted of eight session aerobic exercise. e...

the present research was performed to investigate the effects of aerobic dance with different durations on salivary cortisol and testosterone,and consequently on the mood and body mass of inactive young women. the design of the research was quasi–experimental and the sample consisted of 19 inactive young women (mean age: 30+3 years, height: 167+5.1 cm, weight: 65.5+7.4) who were randomly divide...

CONTEXT High-intensity exercise causes tissue damage, production of stress hormones, and alterations in the function and quantity of various immune cells. Many clinical-physical stressors such as surgery, trauma, burns and sepsis induce a pattern of hormonal and immunological response similar to that of exercise. It has thus been suggested that heavy exercise might be used to cause graded and w...

Working memory lies at the core of cognitive function and plays a crucial role in children's learning, reasoning, problem solving, and intellectual activity. Behavioral findings have suggested that acute aerobic exercise improves children's working memory; however, there is still very little knowledge about whether a single session of aerobic exercise can alter working memory's brain activation...
