To reduce transmission of the coronavirus, Brazilian government adopted containment measures to control virus’ spread, including limitations practice physical activity. It was aimed analyze effects COVID-19 quarantine on activity levels, energy expenditure, quality life, and level stress in a sample population. The included 426 participants (7 80 years). International Physical Activity Questionnaire, Short form survey-36 (SF-36), Stress Perception Scale, were used assess activity, life...
We investigated the effects of brain-computer interface (BCI) combined with mental practice (MP) and occupational therapy (OT) on performance in activities daily living (ADL) stroke survivors.Participants were randomized into two groups: experimental (n = 23, BCI controlling a hand exoskeleton MP OT) control 21, OT). Subjects assessed functional independence measure (FIM), motor activity log (MAL), amount use (MAL-AOM), quality movement (MAL-QOM). The box blocks test (BBT) Jebsen (JHFT) used...
Aquatic exercise programs are used in rehabilitation and might help to reduce disability after stroke.

Fatty acid (FA) composition is a determinant of the physiological effects dietary oils. This study investigated vegetable oil supplementation with different FA compositions on anthropometric and biochemical parameters in obese women hypocaloric diet lifestyle modifications. Seventy-five (body mass index, BMI, 30⁻39.9kg/m²) were randomized based 8-week into four experimental groups: coconut group (CoG,
A economia de corrida têm sido um dos principais fatores determinantes nos desempenhos médias e longas distâncias. O treinamento força é utilizado como uma das estratégias para melhora da corrida, porém não são claras respostas fadiga no perfil corredores recreativos. presente trabalho tem objetivo verificar a condição neuromuscular através do salto com contramovimento (CMJ) após sessão exercícios potência (POT) resistido tradicional (RT). Um ensaio clínico randomizado tipo crossover foi...
A vitamina D desempenha um papel fundamental na regulação do sistema imunológico, além de estar associada à saúde óssea e muscular. Atletas endurance, como os corredores maratona, são particularmente suscetíveis deficiência dessa devido exposição limitada ao sol maior demanda organismo durante o treinamento intenso. Este estudo tem objetivo investigar a relação entre D, imunidade performance bem efeitos da suplementação nesse contexto. justificativa para essa pesquisa reside importância...
Background: Among the strength sports we have Paralympic powerlifting, and factors that influence been investigated; among them is relationship between ratio of size second fourth fingers hand (2D:4D). Objectives: The study aimed at evaluating 2D:4D finger length dynamic indicators, mean propulsive velocity (MPV), maximum (Vmax), power, with loads 45% 80% one repetition (1RM), in powerlifting. Methodology: Sixteen elite powerlifting athletes were evaluated for MPV, Vmax, 1RM. proportions...
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect ingesting ibuprofen on post-workout recovery muscle damage, body temperature and power indicators in Paralympic powerlifting athletes. was carried out with eight athletes (aged 27.0 ± 5.3 years 79.9 25.5 kg mass) competing at national level, a minimum training experience 12 months, who all submitted two experimental conditions: Ibuprofen (2 × 00 mg) control. maximal isometric force upper limbs rate development, thermography, serum biochemical...
The aim of the present study was to analyze effect creatine (Cr) supplementation on peak torque (PT) and fatigue rate in Paralympic weightlifting athletes. Eight powerlifting athletes participated study, with 25.40 ± 3.30 years 70.30 12.15 kg. measurements muscle strength, index (FI), (PT), force (kgf), (N), development (RFD), time maximum isometric (time) were determined by a Musclelab load cell. performed single-blind manner, subjects conducting experiments first placebo then, following...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disabling chronic disease of the nervous system in which myelin central deteriorated. This study aimed to evaluate effectiveness an aquatic exercise program on physical condition patients suffering from multiple sclerosis.The included 26 participants divided into two groups: experimental group (EG) with 13 individuals and control (CG) also individuals. The EG underwent 12 weeks exercise, three times per week 45-60 minutes session. groups were evaluated pre-...
Background and objective: Post-exercise hypotension, the reduction of blood pressure after a bout exercise, is great clinical relevance. Resistance exercise training considered an important contribution to programs for hypertensive individuals athletes. In this context, post-exercise hypotension could be clinically relevant because it would maintain transiently at lower levels during day-time intervals, when typically its highest levels. The aim study was compare cardiovascular effects on...
Paralympic Powerlifting is a sport in which the strength of upper limbs assessed through bench press performance an adapted specific bench. It therefore essential to optimize training methods maximize this performance. The aim present study was compare force production and muscle activation involved partial vs. full range motion (ROM) Powerlifting. Twelve male athletes elite national level participated (28.60 ± 7.60 years age, 71.80 17.90 kg body mass). performed five sets 5RM (repetition...
Extensive research has delved into the impact of environmental circumstances on pacing and performance professional marathon runners.
