Accuracy of heart rate-based zone training using predicted versus measured maximal heart rate
(2017-12)
Predicted maximal heart rate (PMHR) equations are used in a variety of settings for exercise prescription. However, their efficacy is often questioned in the literature. The purpose of this study was to examine the accuracy ...
The development, implementation, and evaluation of the Logan Strides, an eighth-grade after-school program at Logan Middle School, La Crosse, WI
(2017-08)
This graduate project details the development, implementation, and evaluation of a sixweek Logan Strides program, for the Logan Middle School in La Crosse, WI. The program was borne out of adolescent and community need. ...
Can the talk test indentify the respiratory compensation threshold?
(2016-09-12)
Introduction: The Talk Test has shown to be an effective way of determining prescribed exercise intensity and its responsiveness to physiological markers such as ventilatory threshold (VT) and respiratory compensation ...
Comparison of non-maximal tests for exercise prescription and outcome assessment
(2017-12)
This study examined the accuracy of non-maximal tests: the Talk Test (TT), Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) extrapolation, Rockport Walking Test (RWT) and non-exercise VO2max prediction equation for predicting exercise ...
Can the talk test identify maximal lactate steady state?
(2016-09-14)
Introduction: The Talk Test (TT) has been shown to be an effective sun·ogate of standard methods of prescribing exercise training intensity. This study was designed to evaluate if the talk test can identify MLSS. Methods: ...
Safety and efficacy of a multi-ingredient thermogenic pre-workout supplement during low-intensity running in females
(2017-05)
The purpose of this study was to examine the acute effects of a thermogenic pre-workout supplement on oxygen uptake (V02), pulmonary ventilation (\TE), carbon dioxide output (VC02), respiratory exchange rate (RER), energy ...
Effects of wearing a cold vest on caloric expenditure
(2017-05)
Purpose: To determine changes in caloric expenditure and heart rate when wearing the Cool Fat Burner and the Cool Gut Buster. Methods: Twelve male (aged 20.9 ± 1.78 years) and eight female (aged 22.4 ± 2.00 years) subjects ...
