Purpose: We examined whether supplementation of zinc magnesium aspartate (ZMA), while partially sleep deprived, was beneficial to quality and subsequent morning (07:00 h) submaximal weightlifting. Methods: Using a double-blinded, randomized counterbalanced design, sixteen trained males were recruited completed six sessions: (i) one repetition max (1 RM) for bench press back squat; (ii) two familiarisation sessions; (iii) three conditions with 4 h either: ZMA, placebo (PLA), or NoPill control...
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the acute effects CrossFit on blood redox changes. METHODS: 10 males 26.4 yrs (+/− 2.7yrs) with at least three months experience completed “Cindy” (20min as many pull-ups, push-ups, and squats possible) a 20 min 90% HRmax Treadmill bout determined by graded exercise test separate occasions. Blood plasma collected 4 different time points for each trial: pre, post, 1hr post 2hr lipidperoxidation (LOOH) antioxidant capacity. RESULTS: Cindy...
PURPOSE: The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect pre-match consumption a caffeinated carbonated soft drink on tennis performance and hydration status before during simulated match play. METHODS: Ten skilled male players ranked between 4.5 6.0 USTA scale volunteered participate in study. On first visit, participants read signed an IRB-approved informed consent form were given diet recall forms. second treadmill VO2max Loughborough Shuttle Fitness Test (SFT) performed....
HYPOGLYCAEMLA IN RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS rDIsHNAThe clinical response to hypoglycaemia was compared with subsequent A.C.T.H. treatment and found correlate closely.The possible mechanism practical value of hypo- glycaemic therapy in rheumatoid arthritis are discussed.We would like express our appreciation the help given by nursing laboratory staff Royal National Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases, grant made Empire Rheumatism Council towards expenses.
PURPOSE:: The purpose of this investigation was to determine the influence caffeine ingestion on tennis skill performance. METHODS:: Ten male collegiate level players performed two 90 minute trials simulated playing against a ball machine. Participants ingested either 3mg/Kg body weight or placebo with 32 oz carbonated soft drink. After participants remained passive for minutes allow absorption into their system. were allowed 1.2 liters water incrementally provided at specific time periods...
PURPOSE: CrossFit™ (CF) is a widely popular modality that consists of varied functional movements performed at high-intensity. Despite increasing popularity, CF lacks basic empirical evidence to describe physiologic responses such as catecholamines. Therefore, the purpose this study was examine catecholamines Epinephrine (Epi) and Norepinephrine (NE) following bout compare these treadmill (TM). METHODS: 10 men (26.4 ± 2.7yrs) with least three months experience participated in study....
Muscular strength and mass are inversely associated with all-cause mortality. Infiltration of fat in skeletal muscle (myosteatosis) is disease decreased strength. PURPOSE: Examine the relationship between functional measures power size intramuscular density healthy adults. METHODS: Thirteen healthy, non-diseased participants (5 females, 8 males; 30.7 ± 12.5 yrs; 26.6 7.9% body fat) volunteered for this preliminary cross-sectional study. Body composition was measured by dual x-ray...
Combined Effects of Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation and Static Stretching on Hip Range MotionStretch tolerance determines joint range motion (ROM). stretching is a common effective method for increasing ROM. direct-current stimulation (tDCS) to the somatosensory cortex (S1) has also been shown improve ROM in healthy individuals. PURPOSE: To determine if transcranial applied S1 increases effectiveness retention subsequent stretching. METHODS: Twenty subjects (age 21.7 ± 3.2 yrs) were...
0153 The metabolic syndrome is associated with elevated serum lipids, insulin, and glucose concentrations. Frequent exercise often prescribed as a method of reducing risk developing both diabetes hyperlipidemia; however, relatively little data exists documenting the acute response insulin respect to lipids following exercise. PURPOSE: To determine fasted concentrations four days if this was related variables lipid METHODS: Participants (N = 15 males, mean ±sd age 50±2 y, BMI 31.9±1.2 kg/m2,...
0147 The metabolic syndrome is associated with elevated serum lipids, insulin, and glucose concentrations. Frequent exercise often prescribed as a method of reducing risk developing both diabetes hyperlipidemia; however, relatively little data exists documenting the acute response insulin respect to lipids following exercise. PURPOSE: To determine fasted concentrations 350 kcal if this was related variables lipid METHODS: As previously reported (MSSE 34(5): No. 271, p. S49, 2002; MSSE 33(5):...

The influence of aerobic exercise on overall health is well known, however, the renal and filtration (RHF) not as understood. Currently, methods used to assess changes in status with healthy individuals are isolated serum creatinine (sCr) concentrations; volatility sCr makes it an inconsistent biomarker filtration. Recently, a growing number studies supports utilizing contemporary biomarkers Cystatin C (CyC) urine epidermal growth factor (uEGF) clinical populations baseline RHF. What unknown...
