The effects of muscle damage on walking biomechanics are speed-dependent
(2010-11-01)
The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of muscle damage on walking biomechanics at different speeds. Seventeen young women completed a muscle damage protocol of 5 × 15 maximal eccentric actions of the ...
Comparison between glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase-deficient and normal individuals after eccentric exercise
(2010-06-01)
PURPOSE: Theoretically, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD)-deficient compared with nondeficient individuals may be less capable of performing physical activities and/or may be more vulnerable to muscle damage and ...
Beneficial changes in energy expenditure and lipid profile after eccentric exercise in overweight and lean women
(2010-02-01)
The aim was to compare lean and overweight females in regard to the effects of eccentric exercise on muscle damage indices, resting energy expenditure (REE) and respiratory quotient (RQ) as well as blood lipid and lipoprotein ...
Ergogenic and antioxidant effects of spirulina supplementation in humans
(2010-01-01)
PURPOSE: Spirulina is a popular nutritional supplement that is accompanied by claiMSS for antioxidant and performance-enhancing effects. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to examine the effect of spirulina ...
Eccentric exercise affects the upper limbs more than the lower limbs in position sense and reaction angle
(2010-01-01)
In this study, we investigated the effect of eccentric exercise on position sense and reaction angle of the elbow and knee flexors. Twelve males underwent two eccentric exercise sessions involving a randomized crossover ...
