abstract         background and objective: scientific evidence reveals that the density of skeletal muscle microcirculations decreases in the patients with chronic heart failure. therefore, this study aimed to determine the impact of submaximal aerobic exercise training on restoration of fast/slow-twitch muscle fibers microcirculation in rats with myocardial infarction.          methods: in thi...

 Introduction: Muscular weakness, particularly weakness of lower limb muscles is a symptom of Parkinson disease, which, together with other symptoms, will result in a variety of movement disorders. This research is designed to assess the effectiveness of a water-based exercise program on the lower limb muscles strength of Parkinson patients' knee joints. Materials and Methods: In a semi-exp...

introduction: effects of exercise on different body systems, especially cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems are evidenced. there is a dynamic homeostatic balance between coagulation and fibrinolysis in normal circulation. effect of exercise and training on this homeostatic balance has been studied extensively but there are a few studies with regards to analysis of the effects of training...

TRAINING BRADYCARDIA is a well-established consequence of endurance exercise training and is, in fact, often used to demonstrate that an exercise training program had been effective (3). Despite decades of research, the mechanisms responsible for this reduction in baseline heart rate (HR) remain controversial (7, 9, 10, 13). Exercise training-induced changes in HR could result from either shift...

purpose low bone mass is a major health concern among young women nowadays due to sedentary lifestyle and lack of calcium rich food intake. therefore there is an increase in the incidence of lbm among young university women so our main purpose of study was to compare effects of exercise program and calcium supplements on bone mass in young women. methods this single blinded, cross sectional stu...

Motor and cognitive growth in children may be influenced by football practice. Therefore the aim of this study was to assess whether a Football Training Program taken over 6 months would improve motor and cognitive performances in children. Motor skills concerned coordinative skills, running, and explosive legs strength. Cognitive abilities involved visual discrimination times and visual select...

introduction: the efficiency of muscular function is directly related to energy consumption. maintaining the dynamic equilibrium and fatigue during walking and other daily activities are the main problems in spastic cerebral palsy patients. recognition of mechanism and muscular function in these patients is important from a clinical and rehabilitational perspective. the objective of this study ...

BACKGROUND Restorative home care services are short-term and aimed at maximizing a person's ability to live independently. They are multidimensional and often include an exercise program to improve strength, mobility, and balance. The aim of this study was to determine whether a lifestyle exercise program would be undertaken more often and result in greater functional gains than the current str...
