Vogt M, Hoppeler HH. Eccentric exercise: mechanisms and effects when used as training regime or training adjunct. J Appl Physiol 116: 1446–1454, 2014. First published February 6, 2014; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.00146.2013.—The aim of the current review is to discuss applications and mechanism of eccentric exercise in training regimes of competitive sports. Eccentric muscle work is important in m...

Intro: The Jump In study seeks preventative options for osteoporosis through high impact exercise in young girls. This preliminary analysis examines the changes in bone growth and development of girls after 1 year of the jumping intervention vs. a control group. Methods: This paper focuses on 78 girls, half of whom were involved in 1 year of a school-based jumping exercise intervention. The gir...

It is well known that the intraabdominal pressure (IAP) shows very wide variations in certain physiological or pathological condition such as changing the position of standing in supine exercise, coughing, sneezing, Valsalva maneuver [1]. Thus, different studies in the literature, report abdominal pressure values between 16 mmHg, 20 mmHg in standing 25-30 mmHg during exercise to lift a weight o...

background and objectives: it has been shown that a bout of jumping exercise with weighted vests increases the subsequent countermovement jump height. however, it is not clear whether the improvement in jump height is due to the enhancement of joint power or due to other mechanisms such as neural adaptations. methods: to investigate this dichotomy, we tested the acute neuromechanical changes fo...

Strategies to early develop and implement motor skill promotion in preschoolers are lacking. Thus, we examined the effects of a card-based exercise promotion program in a kindergarten setting. 214 preschool children (5.5 ± 0.6 y, range 4.2–6.7 y) were examined in the present intervention study. Body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference were measured. Children were randomly assigned to the K...

in the present study, interactions between lead exposure with nitric oxide precursor (l-arginine) or nitric oxide synthase (nos) inhibitor (l-name) on naloxone-induced jumping and diarrhea in morphine-dependent mice were examined. chronic lead acetate (0.05%) exposure altered naloxone-induced jumping and diarrhea in mice. jumping was decreased after 7 days and was unchanged 14 and 28 days after...

This research is based on discussions with a senior Physical Education trainer (teacher) at SMAN 1 AROSBAYA, Bangkalan Regency, one of the subjects students really like. I like volleyball sports materials. Teachers in field Education, Health and Recreation AROSBAYA apply that when teaching students, almost all are happy understand material. The purpose this study was to determine effect jumping...

Milk has become a popular post-exercise recovery drink. Yet the evidence for its use in this regard comes from a limited number of investigations utilising very specific exercise protocols, and mostly with male participants. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of post-exercise milk consumption on recovery from a sprinting and jumping protocol in female team-sport ath...
