Short-Term Skin Temperature Responses to Endurance Exercise: A Systematic Revie...
Rojas-Valverde, Daniel; Tomás-Carús, Pablo; Timón, Rafael; Batalha, Nuno; Sánchez-Ureña, Braulio; Gutiérrez-Vargas, Randall; Olcina, GuillermoBackground: Body temperature is often assessed in the core and the skin. Infrared thermog- raphy has been used to measure skin temperature (Tsk) in sport research and clinical practice. This study aimed to explore the information reported to date on the use of infrared thermography to detect short-term Tsk responses to endurance exercise and to identify the methodological considerations and knowledge gaps, and ...
Comparative effect of two whole-body vibration exercise programs on the neuromu...
Raimundo, Armando; Batalha, Nuno; Tomás-Carús, Pablo; Leal, Alejo; Gusi, NarcisIntroduction Vibratory exercises are increasingly used in sport training and physical rehabilitation. This study aims to determine the comparative effects of two vibratory frequencies on the neuromuscular leg function in healthy young active females. Methods Twenty-four women (aged 21.9 ± 2.6 years; weight 59.9 ± 7.1 kg) were randomly assigned into 3 groups of 8 subjects: group 25 Hz (G25), group 30Hz (G30), an...
Effects on strength of vibratory exercise compared to walking in postmenopausal...
Raimundo, Armando; Gusi, Narcis; Tomás-Carús, PabloA major problem associated with advanced adult age is the remarkable decline in functional capacity and the associated loss of independence (1). Muscle strength of the lower extremities is a major neuromuscular determinant of these losses and mobility (2). Vibration exercise is a new method of training with ameliorations on bone (3), balance (4), strength of lower extremities (5, 6) and neuromuscular performanc...
Water training effect in shoulder rotators strength in young swimmers
Batalha, Nuno; Tomás-Carús, Pablo; Raimundo, Armando; Fernandes, Orlando; Marinho, Daniel; Silva, AntónioINTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of 18 weeks water training on the rotator cuff strength of young swimmers. METHODS Twenty Portuguese national level male swimmers (age: 14.60±0.67 years old, height: 170.79±6.48 cm, body mass: 61.73±4.68 kg) and 16 sedentary male students (age: 14.88±0.72 years, height: 168.38±6.19 cm, body mass: 60.84±11.69 kg) participated in this study. The pe...
COMPARAÇÃO DO PERFIL DE FORÇA ISOCINÉTICA ENTRE ROTADORES INTERNOS E EXTERNOS D...
Batalha, Nuno; Belfo, Mónica; Duarte, Ricardo; Raimundo, Armando; Tomás-Carús, PabloEm qualquer modalidade desportiva o equilíbrio muscular é de extrema importância para a manutenção da funcionalidade das articulações. Na natação, devido à repetitiva utilização dos músculos do ombro, existe uma maior propensão para lesões nesta articulação, essencialmente motivadas pelos desequilíbrios entre rotadores internos (RI) e rotadores externos (RE) [1]. O objectivo do presente estudo é avaliar os níve...
