This study explored the accuracy of using relationship between repetitions in reserve (RIR) and mean velocity (MV) to predict proximity failure bench press exercises across two modes (Smith machine free-weight) sexes (men women). Twenty-eight recreationally trained individuals completed sessions each exercise mode, with sets performed at 65% 75% one-repetition maximum. Individualized RIR-MV relationships showed a higher goodness-of-fit for Smith compared free-weight (R2 = 0.79–0.87 vs....

There is increasing evidence of weight regain in patients after bariatric surgery (BS), generally occurring from 12 to 24 months postoperatively. Postoperative exercise has been suggested ad long-term maintenance and improve physical function BS patients. However, there are a limited number intervention studies investigating the possible benefits this population. The aim current report provide comprehensive CERT (Consensus on Exercise Reporting Template)-based description rationale details...

Abstract Background: Severe and morbid obesity are increasing globally, particularly in women. As BMI increases, the likelihood of anovulation is higher. The primary aim EMOVAR clinical trial to examine, over short (16 weeks) medium (12 months) term, effects a supervised physical exercise program (focused primarily on aerobic resistance training) ovarian function women with severe/morbid who have undergone bariatric surgery. Secondary objectives examine intervention chronic inflammation,...

Stroke is the leading cause of disability and second death worldwide. The increasing burden stroke underscores importance optimising rehabilitation protocols. Virtual reality (VR) can improve poststroke prognosis. A VR software combining gamification, full immersion specificity (ie, Development validation a novel viRtual rEality for improving diSability quality lifE in patients with sTroke (RESET) software) might substantially life (QoL). However, this technology still very scarce. RESET...

Abnormal heart rate variability (HRV) has been observed in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In a combined cross-sectional and interventional study approach, we investigated the association of HRV inflammation oxidative stress markers, patient-reported outcomes, effect 12 weeks aerobic exercise HRV. Fifty-five women SLE (mean age 43.5 ± 14.0 years) were assigned to either (n = 26) or usual care 29) non-randomized trial. was assessed using monitor during 10 min, inflammatory...

Background and objectives: Several anthropometric body composition parameters have been linked to arterial stiffness (AS) as a biomarker of cardiovascular disease. However, little is known about which these closely related factors more strongly associated with AS. The aim the present study was analyze relationship different AS in middle-aged adults. Materials Methods: This cross-sectional included 186 participants (85 women, 101 men; age = 42.8 ± 12.6 years) evaluated part Healthy UAL study,...

Previous studies have investigated weight loss caused by exercise following bariatric surgery. However, in most cases, the training program is poorly reported; type, volume, and intensity are briefly mentioned; sample size, selection criteria, follow-up time vary greatly across studies.The EFIBAR study aims to investigate over 1 year effects of a 16-week supervised program, initiated immediately after surgery, on (primary outcome), body composition, cardiometabolic risk, physical fitness,...

This study aimed to examine the association of relative handgrip strength (rHGS) with cardiometabolic disease risk factors in women systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods: Seventy-seven SLE (mean age 43.2, SD 13.8) and clinical stability during previous six months were included. Handgrip was assessed a digital dynamometer rHGS defined as absolute (aHGS) divided by body mass index (BMI). We measured blood pressure, markers lipid glucose metabolism, inflammation (high sensitivity...

Estimating repetitions in reserve (RIR) has been established as a valid and practical method for monitoring set configuration concerning proximity to failure resistance training. However, factors such sex exercise equipment could interfere with the estimation process. Therefore, this study aimed determine influence of (female vs male) (free-weight Smith machine) on RIR at different relative loads during bench press exercise.
