Post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) refers to the temporary improvement in physical abilities resulting from a previous conditioning activity (CA), and velocity-based resistance training has been proposed to optimise PAPE. The present study aimed to evaluate the optimal rest interval to induce PAPE in the countermovement jump using heavy parallel squats monitored by the velocity loss (VL) threshold. ...
ObjectiveTo establish the effect of high-intensity and progressive volume resistance training (HIRT), on general health, functional, mental status, and quality of life (QOL) indicators in people with spinal cord injury (SCI).MethodsThe sample consisted of five people with SCI of both sexes, aged 46.2 +/- 13.9 years, submitted to 12 weeks of HIRT, twice a week. We analyzed before and after the 12 weeks of interv...
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) can induce oxidative stress. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of 15 sessions of a HIIT protocol in Wistar rats on oxidative damage markers in different tissues (blood, muscle, liver and heart). Thus, animals weighing 250-300g were used and randomly divided into 2 groups (n=10): Control (CG) and animals submitted to HIIT (TG) through a swimming protoco...
Created in Germany by Joseph Pilates in the 1920s, the Pilates Method (PM) uses exercises aiming to improve physical health and mental balance. The present work objective was to verify, through a systematic literature review without delineating languages and dates, the influence of PM on the quality of life (QoL) of its practitioners. Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases were co...
This research aimed to investigate the association between the skin temperature variation of the skin identified by thermography and serum CK values in healthy subjects based on a systematic review with meta-analysis. A systematic literature search was performed in June 2021 in the SCOPUS, MEDLINE, and Web of Science databases (2000 to 2021). MeSH and DeCS platforms were used to find the descriptors in English ...
The present study aimed to assess the precision of oxygen uptake with heart rate regression during treadmill running in highly trained runners. Twenty national and international level male runners were divided into two equal groups. Group A was formed of 10 sprinters (31.5± 4.7 years, height 1.74± 0.04 m and mass 61.8± 5.2 kg), and group B comprised 10 endurance runners (25.7± 4.5 years, height 1.77± 0.08 m and...
O objetivo desta pesquisa foi identificar se a utilização do exergames pode auxiliar na melhora da aptidão física através do Burpee, como também, analisar se os exergames podem melhorar a agilidade e a percepção espaço-temporal em jovens jogadores de futebol e não jogadores. Esta pesquisa tem caráter exploratório descritivo com analise quali-quantitativa dos dados. Os participantes do estudo foram crianças (10,...
The aim of this experimental study was to evaluate acute responses to oxidative stress (OS) after a single session of two HIIT protocols. 24 Wistar rats were divided into three groups (n= 8): sedentary control (SC), HIIT with a 7-minute volume (LW) and HIIT with 14-min (HW). After the protocol, blood was collected for the measurement of uric acid (UA), and the liver and the gastrocnemius muscle were collected f...
O exercício físico é um fator conhecido que pode promover estresse oxidativo e pode resultar em dano celular se não for neutralizado por mecanismos antioxidantes. O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar se o nível de estresse oxidativo hepático resultante do treinamento intervalado de alta intensidade (HIIT) é afetado pelo padrão de frequência (consecutivo vs. não consecutivo) das sessões de treinamento. Trinta ...
Apesar de a cirurgia bariátrica (CB) auxiliar na redução do processo inflamatório e risco cardiometabólico, poucos estudos avaliaram o impacto desse procedimento em fatores ambientais, bioquímicos, hemodinâmicos, cardiorrespiratórios e na composição corporal, de forma prospectiva, sobretudo escrutinando usuários do Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Portanto, o principal objetivo deste estudo é analisar a evolução d...
