Our understanding of the relationship between physical activity and health is constantly evolving. Therefore, British Association Sport Exercise Sciences convened a panel experts to review literature produce guidelines that professionals might use. In ABC Physical Activity for Health, A All healthy adults, B Beginners, C Conditioned individuals. adults aged 18–65 years should aim take part in at least 150 min moderate-intensity aerobic each week, or 75 vigorous-intensity per equivalent...
This study examined the effects of exercise-induced muscle damage on tremor and proprioception components neuromuscular function. Six male six female volunteers (aged 18-30 yr) performed 50 maximal eccentric actions using forearm flexors nondominant arm. Forearm flexor perception voluntary force joint position were monitored to assess changes in Data analyzed REANOVA. Serum creatine kinase activity increased from a baseline value 68 +/- 13 IU.l-1 2849 852 5 d after exercise (P < 0.05). was...
Arm cranking is a useful alternative exercise modality for improving walking performance in patients with intermittent claudication; however, the mechanisms of such an improvement are poorly understood. The main aim present study was to investigate effects arm-crank training on lower-limb O2 delivery claudication. A total 57 claudication (age, 70+/-8 years; mean+/-S.D.) were randomized group or non-exercise control group. trained twice weekly 12 weeks. At baseline and weeks, completed...
Epidemiological evidence shows that regular physical activity is associated with reduced risk of primary and recurrent colon cancer. However, the underlying mechanisms action are poorly understood. We evaluated effects stimulating a human cancer cell line (LoVo) serum collected before after an acute exercise bout vs nonexercise control on proliferation. also measured exercise-induced changes in cytokines intracellular protein expression to explore potential biological mechanisms. Blood...
In this study, we investigated the effects of knee extensor length during eccentric exercise on indices muscle damage and adaptation. Subjects (n = 7) performed two bouts 75 maximal voluntary actions at a joint angular velocity 1.57 rad s(-1). One bout was short (bout S) with range motion 2.79 to 1.40 radians (160 degrees 80 degrees), second contralateral extensors long L) 2.01 0.7 (120 40 degrees). The maximum contractile force (MVC) measured before 5 min after exercise, again days 3, 5, 7,...
Treatment of prostate cancer with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is associated metabolic changes that have been linked to an increase in cardiovascular risk. This randomised controlled trial investigated the effects a 12-week lifestyle intervention included supervised exercise training and dietary advice on markers risk 50 men long-term ADT recruited on-going study investigating such quality life. Participants were randomly allocated receive or usual care. Cardiovascular outcomes...
