The purpose of this study was to explore the dose-response relationship between resistance exercise intensity and cognitive performance. Sixty-eight participants were randomly assigned into control, 40%, 70%, or 100% 10-repetition maximal groups. Participants tested on Day 1 (baseline) 2 (measures taken relative performance treatment). Heart rate, ratings perceived exertion, self-reported arousal, affect assessed both days. Cognitive before following treatment 2. Results from regression...

The study aimed to provide evidence-based recommendations for the prescription of a single session exercise improve cognitive performance. In particular, purpose was determine dose-response relation between duration and performance moderate-intensity aerobic exercise.Twenty-six healthy young men participated in reading control treatment three treatments presented random order. were designed on basis American College Sports Medicine guidelines consisted 5-min warm-up, cooldown, cycling at...

Research on the acute effects of exercise cognitive performance by older adults is limited a focus nonhealthy populations. Furthermore, duration improvements after has not been examined. Thus, this study was designed to test immediate and delayed healthy adults. Cognitive assessed using Stroop task. Participants were randomly assigned an (20 min walking) or control (sitting quietly) condition. The task administered at baseline 12 time points treatment. Acute resulted in better immediately...

There is increasing evidence that acute aerobic exercise associated with improved cognitive function. However, neural correlates of its plasticity remain largely unknown. The present study examined the effect a session on working memory task-evoked brain activity as well task performance. A within-subjects design counterbalanced order was employed. Fifteen young female participants (M = 19.56, SD 0.81) were scanned using functional magnetic resonance imaging while performing task, N-back...

Resveratrol (RES) is a well-known phytocompound and food component which has antioxidative multifunctional bioactivities. However, there limited evidence for the effects of RES on physical fatigue exercise performance. The purpose this study was to evaluate potential beneficial trans-RES ergogenic functions following physiological challenge. Male ICR mice from four groups (n = 8 per group) were orally administered 21 days at 0, 25, 50, 125 mg/kg/day, respectively designated vehicle, RES-25,...

The purpose of this study is to extend the literature by examining effects an acute bout moderate vigorous intensity aerobic exercise on executive functions planning and problem solving assessed using a Tower London Task (TOL Task). Forty-two participants were randomly assigned into either or control group, performed TOL Task, before immediately following treatment. group 30 min stationary cycle at while read for same length time. Results indicated that achieved improvements in scores...

Acute physical activity of moderate to vigorous intensity has been shown improve cognitive functions in children. However, the empirical evidence associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) children is still limited, particular regarding which specific benefit. This study investigated effects an acute bout on multiple aspects executive (inhibition, switching, and visual working memory) ADHD. Forty-six (8-12 years old; 82.6% boys) were randomly assigned either 15 minutes...

Purpose The objective of this study is to verify the beneficial effects whey protein (WP) supplementation on health promotion and enhance exercise performance in an aerobic-exercise training protocol. Methods In total, 40 male Institute Cancer Research mice (4 wk old) were divided into four groups (n = 10 per group): sedentary control with vehicle (SC) or WP (4.1 g·kg−1, SC + WP), (ET) ET WP). Animals underwent swimming endurance for 6 wk, 5 d·wk−1. Exercise was evaluated by forelimb grip...

Limited research has explored the relationship between non-leisure-time physical activity (NLTPA), including domestic and work-related activities, with depressive symptoms. This study was designed to elucidate independent associations leisure-time (LTPA), NLTPA, specific parameters of (frequency, duration intensity) symptoms in older adults. A total 2,727 persons aged ≥ 65 years participating 2005 Taiwan National Health Interview Survey were studied. Depressive measured by Center for...
