Objectives High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and Moderate Intensity Training (MIT) can combat the obesity epidemic. However, studies comparing their effects on obesity show controversial findings regarding weight loss. Adenosine has emerged as a possible, novel therapeutic agent to treat obesity, but more preclinical studies on its efficacy a...

Skeletal muscle atrophy is associated with type 1 diabetes. Effects of resistance exercise training associated with skeletal muscle hypertrophy on serum inflammatory cytokines was exactly not clarified. Protein levels of inflammatory cytokines IL-6, TNF-α, and interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) in serum of healthy and streptozotocin (STZ)- induced diabetic...

The aim of this study was to investigate the listening to motivational music and lactate and cortisol response to a single circuit resistance exercise (CRE) in male handball players. Sixteen handball players were randomly assigned to two equal groups of eight participants that trained with the intensities of 60% (G60) and 80% (G80) of their 1RM. G6...

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) supplementation on acute hormonal responses to a single bout of resistance exercise. Design: double-blind with control group Material and Methods: In a double-blind with control design, 20 males (age: 21.5 ± 1.7 years; height: 177.3 ± 1.1 cm; we...

Music has been widely recommended as a technique to enhance the psychophysical state of participants in sport and exercise. However, there is scant scientific evidence to clarify its proposed benefits. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of fast and slow rhythm of music on anaerobic performance and salivary cortisol concent...

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of different rest intervals between sets on markers of muscle damage in professional bodybuilders. Therefore, ten male athletes voluntarily participated in four sessions of resistance trainings. At the first session, 1RM of participants evaluated. In other sessions, the subjects performed...

The aim of this study was to Survey the relationship between big five factor, happiness and sport achievement in Iranian athletes. In order to 72 athletics (Consist of 21 national tem athletes, 25 professional athletes and 26 non-professional athletes) who were selected using a access sampling, were assessed using Big Five Factor Inventory (FFI) (C...

The Effect of resistance exercise training on calcineurin signaling expression in skeletal muscle of diabetic rats was studied. Male Wistar rats were randomized to one of four groups: control (C), trained (T), STZ-induced diabetes (D), and (Streptozotocin) STZ-induced diabetes plus training (DT). Diabetes was induced by the i.p. injection of STZ (S...

4 Yazd Education Organization, Meybod Education Affair, Iran ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the relation between stature and maximal oxygen uptake (VO 2Max). Fifty four active female university students with (Mean ± SD, ages: 23.22±1.93 yr, hei...

The purpose of this research was to evaluate the serum cortisol and immunoglobulin-A (IgA) responses to maximal progressive exercise in elite male and female athletes. Twenty-four elite athletes who had experience in national team or played on league championship voluntarily participated in this study (ages: 22.46±3.37 yr, height: 175.54±8.68 cm, w...

The purpose of this study was to introduce a new maximal step test (NMST) with adjusted step height based on the knee joint angle of 90°. Thirty female students of physical education With (Mean ± SD, ages: 23.6±2.11 yr, height: 164.63±7.14cm, weight: 60.97±4.01 kg, body fat percent: 23.6±2.11) participated in the study and performed both NMST and a...

Background Adiponectin and leptin are closely related to weight control and energy balance, whereas exercise training has beneficial effects in obese men. Hence, the objective of this study was to determine the effects of 10 weeks of progressive resistance training on serum leptin and adiponectin concentrations in obese men.Methods Sixteen obese me...

IntroductionMusic has been widely recommended as a technique to enhance the psychophysical state of participants in sport and exercise. However, there is scant scientific evidence in anaerobic performance to clarify its proposed benefits. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of fast and slow rhythm music on anaerobic perform...

of very short rest periods on hormonal responses to resistance exercise in men. J Strength Cond Res 24(7): 1851–1859, 2010—The effect of 3 different rest periods on the acute hormonal responses to resistance exercise (RE) was examined in 10 experienced resistance trained men (age: 20.37 6 2.24 years, weight: 65.5 6 26.70 kg). On 3 separate sessions...

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of short-term creatine supplementation on hormonal responses to resistance exercise. 27 trained men were randomly divided into a creatine supplementation group [the CR group (n=15), taking 4×5 g creatine monohydrate/day] or a placebo supplementation group [the PL group (n=12), taking 4×7.5 g...

There are few data relating to stress levels and immune function, prior to, and following acute bout of resistance exercise with varying rest intervals between sets in young resistance trained men. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of varying rest intervals on serum IgA and cortisol concentrations during heavy resistance...

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of short-term creatine supplementation on hormonal responses to resistance exercise. 27 trained men were randomly divided into a creatine supplementation group [the CR group (n=15), taking 4×5 g creatine monohydrate/day] or a placebo supplementation group [the PL group (n=12), taking 4×7.5 g...

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) peptides exist as single chain polypeptides consisting of about 70 amino acid residues which stimulate muscle hypertrophy via PI-3K-Akt-mTOR signaling. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of a resistance exercise (RE) protocol (4 sets of squat and bench press with 85 % of 1RM) at diffe...

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of short-term creatine supplementation on hormonal responses to resistance exercise. 27 trained men were randomly divided into a creatine supplementation group [the CR group (n=15), taking 4×5 g creatine monohydrate/day] or a placebo supplementation group [the PL group (n=12), taking 4×7.5 g...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of motivational and relaxation music on aerobic performance, rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and salivary cortisol (SC) concentration in trained men. Thirty male physical education college students (ages: 25.66±3.89 yr, height: 176.65±7.66 cm, weight: 78.45±16.20 kg, body fat percent: 12.86±5.7...
