Background. In team sports, according to perform variety of motor skills, development of special bio-motor abilities and imposed proper exercise stress, hematologic adaptations following exercise will be different. Objectives. Therefore, the aim of this study was the effects of six weeks combined training program on hematological parameters in elite basketball players. Methods. Fifteen athl...

Background. In addition to depressed cardiac reserve, peripheral factors may contribute to limit maximal exercise capacity in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). To investigate the role of reduced active skeletal muscle mass, peak oxygen uptake (Vo2, milligrams per kilogram per minute) was determined during maximal symptom-limited exercise involving the lower limbs (LL) alone and the ...

Objective: Type 2 diabetes(T2DM) patients can ben­efit from exercise training programs but there are many barriers to do exercise .The aim of this study was to investigate effects of 10 weeks aerobic, resistance and combined strength and aerobic exercise program on fasting blood sugar (FBS) and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) of T2DM male patients. Materials and Methods: A quasi experimental s...

Objective: Aging is associated with endothelial dysfunction and arthrosclerosis. This study aimed to assesses the impact of combined circular training (resistance-interval) on endothelial-derived microparticles (EMPs) as a marker of endothelial function and cardiovascular risk factors in overweight elderly men. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, twenty four overweight men aged ...

background: exercise and consumption of green tea affect the aging process. however, the effect of exercise training combined with green tea extract on leukocyte telomere length, quality of life (qol) and body composition in aging has so far been unclear and inconsistent. objective: the aim of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of aerobic training intervention and green tea ex...
