Brief moments of blood flow occlusion followed by reperfusion may promote enhancements in exercise performance. Thus, this study assessed the 24-h effect post-exercise ischemic conditioning (PEIC) on performance and physiological variables trained cyclists. In a randomized, single-blind study, 28 cyclists (27.1 ± 1.4 years) performed maximal incremental cycling test (MICT). The outcome measures were creatine kinase (CK), muscle soreness perceived recovery status, heart rate, exertion power...

For the ischemic preconditioning (IPC) intervention, accuracy of protocol is paramount for mediating its possible ergogenic effects. However, lack standardization and widespread use arbitrary cuff pressures (ranging from 130 to >300 mmHg) have been predominantly observed, potentially affecting results compromising reproducibility findings. Thus, purpose this study was determine an appropriate pressure during IPC. Seventeen healthy male participants were enrolled in study. Anthropometric...

Abstract de Souza, HLR, Arriel, RA, Hohl, R, da Mota, GR, and Marocolo, M. Is ischemic preconditioning intervention occlusion-dependent to enhance resistance exercise performance? J Strength Cond Res 35(10): 2706–2712, 2021—Ischemic is a rising technique with potential improve performance. Currently, its effects are still controversial, placebo effect seems have role. In this sense, study evaluated the of high-pressure (HP) low-pressure (LP) cuffing on performance during repeated 5-day...

Rules determine how team sport matches occur. Match-induced fatigue is specific to each sport, and may be associated with injury incidence. For example, the rate in soccer distinctly higher during than training sessions. Understanding differences between sports rules might useful for enhancing (e.g., safer sport). Therefore, this study aimed evaluate impact of rule-induced physical demands soccer, futsal, basketball, handball, focusing on substitution rules. Data from elite sports' absolute...

Instagram (IG) reaches millions of people, sharing personal content and all kinds information, including those related to exercise health. However, the scientific quality posted information is questionable. Thus, this study aimed analyze whether health by popular Brazilian IG influencers has technical-scientific accuracy. A account was created identify profiles. The inclusion criteria accounts were: (1) having 50% shared posts topics about health, such as nutrition, wellness, medicine, or...

Background: Chronic diseases are the leading causes of death and disability in older women. Physical exercise training programs promote beneficial effects for health quality life. However, interruption periods may be detrimental hemodynamic lipidic profiles hypertensive women with dyslipidemia. Methods: Nineteen dyslipidemia (exercise group: 67.5 ± 5.4 years, 1.53 3.42 m, 71.84 7.45 kg) performed a supervised multicomponent program (METP) during nine months, followed by one-year detraining...

Abstract The diary method has been used in some areas of knowledge, being uncommon the area sensory analysis food. In addition, given expanding market and added value Canastra artisanal Minas cheese, it is important to study consumer behavior, as well understand consumption habits product. Thus, objective this was use collect data, addition investigating behavior perceptions consumers cheese. Potentials weaknesses application were discussed. results will contribute science, focusing on...

Abstract This study is an extension of a previously research about cheese consumer behavior assessed by diaries (Rodrigues et al. 2020). It comprises investigation Diary (performed at home consumers) and CATA (a traditional sensory method performed lab) tools assessing Canastra cheese, to compare the results information obtained from both techniques. Sensory evaluations were during 10 days, evaluated every 5 days. Thus, cheeses with 22, 27, 32 days maturation. provided similar profiles...

Physical inactivity is a primary cause of most chronic diseases. In addition, the negative effects aging, physical and dyslipidemia are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases older women. Exercise considered fundamental treatment prevention due to benefits in health this population, but detraining periods after exercise can reverse them. Multicomponent (ME) combined method aerobic resistance training that improve lipidic profile women with high cholesterol triglycerides.Seventeen (EG: 65.3...

This study examined the effects of a simultaneous ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and SHAM intervention to reduce placebo effect due priori expectation on performance knee extension resistance exercise. Nine moderately trained men were tested in three different occasions. Following baseline tests, subjects performed first set leg tests after IPC (3 X 5 min 50 mmHg above systolic blood pressure) right thigh (same as IPC, but 20 mmHg) left thigh. After 48 hours, another with opposite...

Abstract Blood flow restriction (BFR) can be used during resistance training (RT) through pressure application with pneumatic (pressurized) cuffs (PC) or non-pneumatic (practical) (NPC). However, PC are expensive and difficult to use in the gym environment compared NPC. The main aim was compare, correlate, verify hormonal metabolic responses between NPC a low-load BFR RT of upper-body. secondary compare blood lactate (BLa) concentration pre- post-exercise (2-min into recovery), as well...

Background: Sedentarism and inactivity are risk factors for the development of hypertension. Thus, prevention natural process biological physiological aging older women through physical exercise results in higher benefits preventing cardiovascular diseases can be a key factor its treatment. Multicomponent (METP) is training method that may help with hypertension by improving their quality life response to Methods: Twenty-eight Caucasian (66.7 ± 5.3 years, 1.59 0.11 m) performed supervised...

Aims: To investigate the early and late ischemic preconditioning (IPC) effect on trained cyclists' performance during incremental cycling test until exhaustion.Methods: Twenty-one male cyclists allocated to an IPC (2 x 5-min of blood flow occlusion at 50 mm Hg above systolic pressure followed + deflation), SHAM 20 Hg) or control (CON; no occlusion) interventions, performed three (ICT) exhaustion separate days.The ICT were conducted pre interventions (baseline), 24-h after interventions.The...

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have assessed the effects of ischemic preconditioning (IPC) on exercise performance and physiological variables, such as lactate muscle deoxygenation. In this study, we verified IPC heart rate during immediately after a maximal incremental cycling test (ICT).METHODS: Eighteen recreationally trained cyclists (28±4 years) were allocated to one three groups: IPC, SHAM Control. After first visit familiarization, attended laboratory two separate occasions perform an...

The assessment of neuromuscular fatigue is important for minimizing the risks nonfunctional overreaching, and monitoring training loads has rapidly grown in recent years. objective study was to compare acute upper body performance rating perceived exertion (RPE) responses high-volume (HV) high-intensity (HI) resistance-training loads. Sixteen young resistance-trained men (4 repetition maximum [RM] bench press = 105.8 ± 15.9 kg) were divided into two groups eight subjects each that performed...

Aims: To evaluate whether body mass (BM) and composition may influence mountain bike cycling performance. Methods: Forty male amateur bikers attended the laboratory on two non-consecutive days. At first visit, anthropometric measures (height, BM, fat [BF], fat-free [FFM] index [BMI]) familiarization to incremental test were performed. On second cyclists performed again measure peak power output (PPO), relative BM (PPO-BM), time exhaustion (TE), which posteriorly correlated with measures....
