Vascular Health and Physical Performance In Older Normal and Pre-Diabetic Adults Following a Diabetes Prevention Program
(2019-05)
The CDC led a Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) to negate the progress of prediabetes developing into type 2 diabetes (T2D). Prior research has reported DPP decreasing the rate of T2D (58%) compared to Metformin (31%) among ...
Nondisabled elementary students’ attitudes toward persons with disabilities
(2019-08)
The purpose of this study was to determine whether implementing a disability awareness unit in a general physical education curriculum positively influences nondisabled students’ attitudes toward persons with disabilities ...
Impact of practice training loads on neuromuscular and perceptual fatigue during an NCAA Division III collegiate football season.
(2019-12)
PURPOSE: This study examined neuromuscular fatigue management from a daily undulating practice periodization plan during an NCAA Division III collegiate football season. METHODS: Thirty university football players participated ...
Effects of L-Citrulline on microvascular function, skeletal muscle oxygen, and lipolysis in healthy and prediabetic older adults: an exploratory study
(2019-12)
Background: Prediabetes may increase the risk of endothelial dysfunction and reduce skeletal muscle oxygenation. Increased lipolysis during exercise may reduce fat mass and improve insulin sensitivity. L-citrulline improves ...
Temporal robustness of session RPE
(2019-05)
Session Rating of Perceived Exertion (sRPE) has been used to monitor training as an alternative to traditional measures such as heart rate, blood lactate and VO2. The goal of this study was to analyze the effects of time ...
Effects of attentional focus on dynamic whole-body movements as a function of skill level
(2019-05)
Focusing attention on an external cue (EF), as opposed to an internal focus of attention (IF), has been shown to improve reaction time (RT) for track and field athletes during a sprint start (Kovacs et al., 2018). The track ...
The energy expenditure and relative exercise intensity of BODYJAM
(2019-12)
Purpose: To determine the energy expenditure and relative exercise intensity during a BODYJAM session. Methods: Nineteen female (age 20.1 ± 1.14 years) subjects completed a maximal treadmill test and a 55-minute BODYJAM ...
The effects of short-term L-citrulline supplementation on arterial stiffness in prediabetic and healthy adults
(2019-05)
Background: Prediabetes is marked by elevated levels of plasma glucose. Chronic hyperglycemia may induce thickening of the arteries, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction, a primary cause for cardiovascular disease. ...
The Talk Test as a measurement of exercise intensity in children
(2019-12)
The aim of this study was to identify the replicability of the Talk Test as an indicator of exercise intensity in children. This study specifically looked at whether the TT could be used as a measurement of exercise intensity ...
The training effect of foam rolling on range of motion, flexibility, agility, and vertical jump height
(2019-12)
This study was designed to evaluate the training effects of foam-rolling on ankle and knee range of motion, flexibility, agility, and vertical jump height. Twenty subjects (8 male, 12 female) completed 6 weeks of foam ...
