Can intermittent energy restriction (IER) improve fat loss and fat-free mass retention compared with continuous (CER) in resistance-trained adults?Sixty-one adults (32 women) a mean (SD) age of 28.7 (6.5) yr, body weight 77.2 (16.1) kg, 25.5% (6.1%) were randomized to 12 wk 1) 4 × 3 moderate (m) interspersed 1 balance (mIER; n = 30; 15 total) or 2) (mCER; 31). Analyses all outcome measures by intention-to-treat.After accounting for baseline differences, mIER did not result lower weight,...
Ultrasound has been demonstrated to be a highly accurate and reliable tool for measuring subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness is robust against changes in hydration status or acute food fluid intake. However, the effect of prior exercise unexamined. This study examined impact an endurance resistance session on standardised brightness-mode ultrasound measurements compared skinfolds dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry body composition estimates. In randomised cross-over design, 30 active adults...
This study tested whether subcutaneous fat loss is enhanced via application of a popular topical lotion. Twenty resistance-trained men (mean ± SD age 26.3 6.3 years and weight 86.8 11.1 kg) had fat-loss lotion containing Coleus forskholii, Silybin, Eucommia ulmoides leaf, Paullinia cupana seed, caffeine, black pepper essential oil applied twice daily for 8 weeks to the front lateral thigh one participant's leg, placebo control was same sites on other leg. After weeks, there were no...
