The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of implementing task-specific, post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) strategies, to acutely improve Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) performance. Nineteen ROTC cadets completed two ACFTs, separated by 72 hours. Approximately half (n = 10) completed the traditional “Preparation Dril...
Purpose: The overall objective of this study is to determine if the wide variety of exercise selections in High-Intensity Functional Training (HIFT) affects the metabolic demands between each workout. Methods: A crossover design with six experienced participants were used to compare the mean and maximum values of heart rate, oxygen consumption, the...
Introduction:
Precooling with ice slurry ingestion attenuates the increase in rectal temperature (Tre) during subsequent running and cycling. It remains unclear how this cooling method affects physiological strain during work while wearing protective garments. This study investigated the effect of ice slurry ingestion on physiological strain durin...
The popularity of pet therapy is increasing rapidly in medical settings, but has not been evaluated in training and performance enhancement settings. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of the presence of dogs during a typical strength and condition session on Division III female softball players’ mood, perception, and performance.
The purpose of this investigation was to compare the electromyographical (EMG) activity of the latissimus dorsi (LD), posterior deltoid (PD), middle trapezius (MT), and biceps brachii (BB) while performing two pull-up variations. Resistance-trained men and women (n = 13, age = 24.26 ± 6.24) volunteered to participate in this study. All participants...
Body composition (BC) plays a critical role in sport performance and athlete health. Body size and BC have been widely studied in men's sports, with reported changes observed over time. However, a paucity of current data exists in women athletes. The purpose of the current descriptive study was to measure and compare BC data for collegiate women at...
Burnout is a multidimensional, psychological syndrome, characterized by chronic physical and emotional exhaustion, feelings of reduced accomplishment, and feelings of disengagement from a previously enjoyed profession or activity. While much of the literature on burnout involves health care providers, little information is available regarding burno...
Strengthening muscles of the back may have various implications for improving functions of daily living, aiding in the transfer of power in throwing, and assist in injury prevention of the shoulder complex. While several versions of the pull-up exist, there is currently no literature comparing their differences. The purpose of this investigation wa...
PURPOSE: Increasing in popularity, high intensity functional training (HIFT) is a demanding form of training. HIFT typically incorporates multiple exercise mode at high intensities and volumes while allowing little, or no, prescribed rest periods between sets. Despite their popularity, no research is available evaluating the time course of recovery...
The pull-up is a closed kinetic chain exercise that is aimed to increase muscular strength and endurance in the upper extremities and torso. Therefore, this exercise may be beneficial for improving functions of daily living, aiding in the transfer of power in throwing movements, and preventing injuries of the shoulder joint complex. There is limite...
In order to maximize favorable training adaptations, athletes require sufficient time to recover between exercise sessions. However research aimed at developing quick, non-invasive tools to evaluate recovery is lacking. Currently there is no tool that provides continuous-subjective data while attempting to avoid selection bias due to familiarizatio...
Body size and composition are among the many physiological factors that influence football performance and health. However, limited research is available examining chronic changes of body composition among elite-level NCAA Division 1 collegiate football players. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess longitudinal body composition changes...
Body composition is an important component of physical fitness that has been shown to influence athletic performance and health. Limited research is available to examine how body composition changes during preparatory and competitive seasons in athletes, especially female NCAA gymnasts. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess longitudinal...
American football is a diverse sport composed of athletes with a variety of physiological characteristics. Body size and composition have been shown to be two primary components of physical fitness that influence performance of football players. However, limited research is available examining body composition characteristics of elite level collegi...
PURPOSE: Traditional measures of ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) are ordinal and thus violate statistical assumptions required for parametric analysis. This study aimed to evaluate the validity of a visual analog RPE scale (VRPE) during physical activity. METHODS: Nine participants (M = 4, F = 5, AGE = 23±4 y) completed 9 separate, counter-bala...
Personal training (PT) is a profession focused on individual exercise assessment and prescription. With books, workout videos and television shows, personal trainers are arguably the highest profile physical educator under the kinesiology umbrella. Purpose: The purpose of this presentation is to examine the literature associated with PT and present...
Continuous fan cooling mitigates the decrease in maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) associated with cardiovascular drift (CV drift) during heat stress, but it remains unknown whether acute fan cooling has a similar effect.PURPOSE: To determine whether a brief period of fan cooling diminishes the reduction in VO2max associated with CV drift during heat...
The purpose of this study was to determine if Omega 3 Chia seed loading is a viable option for enhancing sports performance in events lasting >90 minutes and allow athletes to decrease their dietary intake of sugar while increasing their intake of Omega 3 fatty acids. It has been well documented that a high dietary carbohydrate (CHO) intake for sev...
