the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a period of interval training and step taper on weight changes and endurance performance in male rats during puberty. in this experimental study, 40 male wistar rats (3 weeks old) were randomly divided into exercise and control groups. after 6 weeks of incremental interval training, exercise group was divided in to 3 groups of 3-week taper ...

Graded exercise testing (GXT) is the most widely used assessment to examine the dynamic relationship between exercise and integrated physiological systems. The information from GXT can be applied across the spectrum of sport performance, occupational safety screening, research, and clinical diagnostics. The suitability of GXT to determine a valid maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) has been und...

The aims of the present study were (a) to determine whether the two types of complex training and vibration complex training would improve the individual phenomenon of post-activation potentiation (PAP) for every athlete in a team setting; and (b) to compare the acute effect of resistance and plyometric exercise, whole body vibration, complex training and vibration complex training on vertical ...

background and aim: in skeletal muscle, carnitine plays an essential role in the translocation of long-chain fatty-acids into the mitochondrial matrix for subsequent beta-oxidation. despite an abundance of literature describing the basic mechanisms of action of l-carnitine metabolism, there remains some uncertainty regarding the effects of oral l-carnitine supplementation on metabolism and exer...

some important compatibility that occur with exercise is increase of the capillary density or angiogenesis. vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) have mitogen role for endothelial cells and consider an important intermediary angiogenesis process. the purpose of this study was comparing the effect of two type of physical activity on response of serum vegf-a in non-athlete men. for this aim 1...
