BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of two sessions of resistance exercise with different volumes on post-exercise hypotension, forearm blood flow, and forearm vascular resistance in hypertensive elderly subjects. METHODS The study was conducted with ten hypertensive elderly (65±3 years, 28.7±3 kg/m(2)) subjected to three experimental sessions, ie, a control sessio...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of acute resistance exercise with different movement orders on fatigue parameters (serotonin and rpe test) in non-athlete men (normal weight and obese). 26 male university students were purposively selected and assigned to obese (n-11) and normal weight groups (n=15). in the first session, half of the subjects (both obese and normal) randomly ...

PURPOSE This study examined ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) during resistance exercise in women. In addition, changes in blood lactic acid and biceps muscle activity assessed using electromyography (EMG) were investigated as potential mediators of RPE during resistance exercise. METHODS Twenty female volunteers (age, 25 +/- 4 yr) performed one set of biceps curl exercise at 30%, 60%, and ...

an increase in c-reactive protein inflammatory indicator and lipid profile is accompanied with an increase in cardiovascular risks. however, the effect of resistance exercises on these cardiovascular risk factors in females is unknown.the aim of this study was to examine the effect of 12 weeks of circuit exercise on c-reactive protein and lipid profile in inactive women.for this purpose, 24 you...

–The aim of this study was to determine if rating of perceived exertion (RPE) could be used to monitor the internal load during compounded circuit training (CCT) sessions in women. Thirteen young adults women performed three sessions of CCT varying the intensity according to participants’ maximum heart rate (50, 70 and 90%HRmax). Throughout the main part of CCT (35min), HR and RPE were measured...

the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of two aerobic training programs with different intensities on some cardiovascular risk factors in young girls. for this purpose, 42 girls (mean age 20.59±1.46 years, height 160.29±4.75 cm, weight 59.23±8.82 kg, bmi 22.08±3.41 kg/m2, %bf 15.42±3.85 and vo2max 25.34±3.96 ml/kg/min) were voluntarily participated in this study and divided ...
