Circulating nitrate-nitrite reduces oxygen uptake for improving resistance exercise performance after rest time in well-trained CrossFit athletes
(Springer Nature, 2022-06-11)
This study aimed to determine the effects of circulating nitrate plus nitrite (NOx) concentrations on resistance exercise performance, VO2 and biomarkers of muscle damage. Eleven well-trained male ...
The slow component of oxygen uptake and efficiency in resistance exercises: a comparison with endurance exercises
(Frontiers, 2019-03-28)
There is a lack of information regarding the slow component of oxygen uptake (VO2sc) and efficiency/economy in resistance exercises despite the crucial role played in endurance performance. This study ...
Bioelectrical impedance vector and creatine phosphokinase changes induced by a high-intensity training session in rink hockey players
(MDPI, 2022)
This study aimed to analyze anthropometric and whole-body/muscle-localized bioelectrical
impedance vector analysis (BIVA) adaptations and their relation to creatine kinase (CK) as a biomarker
of muscle ...
The 360° performance system in team sports: is it time to design a “Personalized Jacket” for team sports players?
(MDPI, 2021-03-17)
Elite performance in team sports attracts the attention of the general public. In particular, the best players became incredibly skilled and physically powerful, which is a fact that potentiates the ...
Muscle recovery after a single bout of functional fitness training
(MDPI, 2021-06-20)
Background: Functional fitness training (FFT) is a new exercise modality that targets functional multi-joint actions via both muscle-strengthening exercises and aerobic training intervals. The aim of ...
Severe loss of mechanical efficiency in COVID-19 patients
(Wiley, 2021-06-08)
BackgroundThere is limited information about the impact of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) on the musculardysfunction, despite the generalized weakness and fatigue that patients report after overcoming ...
Ventilatory efficiency during constant-load test at lactate threshold intensity: endurance versus resistance exercises
(Public Library Of Science, 2019-05-21)
There is a lack of evidence about the ventilatory efficiency in resistance exercises despite the key role played in endurance exercises. This study aimed to compare the cardiorespiratory, metabolic ...
Application of capacitive-resistive electric transfer in physiotherapeutic clinical practice and sports
(MDPI, 2021-11-26)
Diathermy techniques embody an oscillating electrical current passaging through the body tissues generating therapeutic heat; use of this technique in the physiotherapy field has been introduced recently, ...
Effect of muscle action on the kinetic and kinematic behavior of the barbell during isoinertial strength assessment
(MDPI, 2021-03-06)
An isoinertial strength assessment was performed to examine the kinetic and kinematic behavior of the barbell during several muscle actions. Velocity–time characteristics, force–time relationship, one ...
Effects of introducing rest intervals in functional fitness training
(MDPI, 2021-10-18)
Background: Functional Fitness Training (FFT) is a new exercise modality prioritizing functional multi-joint movements executed at high intensity as a circuit. Objective: To examine the impacts of ...
