the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 6 weeks of resistance training on morphological indicators of untrained women's heart health. for this purpose, 20 sedentary females (22/6±18 years old, 162/3±6/5 cm height, 58±5/1 kg weight, 18/3±5/2% percentage of fat and the surface of body: 1/62±0/15 m2) were selected randomly and assigned to two experimental (n = 10) and control (...

Aims: Obesity is associated with cardiovascular disease. Today, changing childhood lifestyle may affect on cardiovascular diseases factors. The goal of this research was to determine the evaluation of changes in lipid profiles, insulin resistance and serum FGF21 following three types of exercise training in sedentary obese children. Materials and Methods: Sixty obese boys 8-12 years old with z...

the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of two programs of standard sets and circuit weight training with different intensities on response of excess post exercise oxygen consumption (epoc) in young men. for this purpose, twelve healthy men (mean±sd: age, 21.92±1.1 years; height, 175.17±4.55cm; weight, 69.74±7.5kg) were voluntarily selected and participated in two stages of t...

Exercise intolerance, exertional dyspnea, reduced health-related quality of life, and acute exacerbations are features characteristic of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Patients with a primary diagnosis of COPD often report comorbidities and other secondary manifestations, which diversifies the clinical presentation. Pulmonary rehabilitation that includes whole body exercise train...

the aim of the present study was to examine the effect of aerobic training and green tea supplementation on serum leptin and insulin resistance in overweight and obese men. for this purpose, 43 overweight and obese men were selected voluntarily and were included in four groups: control (body mass index 31.4+3.7, vo2max 39.3+3.8 ml/kg.min), green tea supplement (body mass index, 30.3±2.8 k/m2, v...

We assessed the effects of coagulation factor VII (FVII) gene polymorphisms, lipid-related polymorphisms, and exercise training-induced plasma lipoprotein lipid changes on FVII level changes with exercise training in middle- to older-aged men and women. Forty-six healthy sedentary men and women were stabilized on a low-fat diet and then underwent baseline testing, 6 mo of endurance exercise tra...

BACKGROUND Guideline adherence with respect to exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is hampered by a large variety of complex guidelines and position statements, and the fact that these documents are not specifically designed for healthcare professionals prescribing exercise-based CR programs. This study aimed to develop clinical algorithms that can be used in clinical practice for prescr...

Background: For decades, static stretching has been the standard benchmark for training programs, because it has been shown to increase flexibility compared with other methods of stretching. Objective: The current study investigated and compared the effects of active dynamic stretching and passive static stretching on hamstring tightness. Me...
