A predominance of parasympathetic drive is observed following cold exposure. Such modulation the autonomic nervous system (ANS) associated with faster post-exercise recovery. Within this context, whole-body cryotherapy (WBC) has been spreading in sport medicine, though optimal temperature and frequency are unclear. The aim study was to examine effects different conditions on sympathovagal balance.Forty healthy males were randomly assigned into five groups (- 110 °C, - 60 10 control [≃ 24...
Abstract Objective The aim of the present investigation was to determine whether using cryostimulation (partial-body cryostimulation) impacts sleep quality in professional soccer players. Different exposure durations at − 180 °C were tested randomly after standardized training sessions nine players (no cryostimulation, 180-s exposure, two 90-s exposures separated by a 5-min rest room temperature, and exposure), effects on 3-dimensional accelerometers worn during assessed. Results number...
Abstract We assessed the effects of a 3-min partial-body cryostimulation (PBC) exposure—where whole body is exposed to extreme cold, except head—on cognitive inhibition performance and possible implications parasympathetic cardiac control cerebral oxygenation. In randomized controlled counterbalanced cross-over design, eighteen healthy young adults (nine males nine females) completed Stroop task before after one single session PBC (3-min exposure at − 150 °C cold air) condition (3 min room...
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact using a cooling vest during physical exercise (per-cooling) in humid and temperate conditions (≈22°C, ≈80% relative humidity) on perceptual physiological responses (tissue oxygenation heart rate). 20 physically active men performed twice 30-min cycling at 70% their theoretical maximum rate while an activated (experimental condition) deactivated (control system randomized crossover study. Heart tissue (cerebral muscular) were...
Warm-up is used by trainers and athletes before a range of exercises performances. Stretch often use to complete warm-up (Dadebo et al. 2004). Research has demonstrated that prolonged static...
