Introduction. A growing body of evidence suggests a strong relationship between age-related declines in muscle mass, strength, and power with impaired cognitive function. To mitigate these effects, current recommendations consist of...
Osteoporosis and its associated fractures are common complications of aging and most strategies to prevent and/or treat bone loss focused on antiresorptive medications. However, aerobic exercise (AEX) and/or whole-body vibration (WBV)...
The Effects of Twelve Weeks of Whole-Body Vibration Training and Low-Intensity Resistance Exercise Training on Arterial Function, Muscle Strength, and Physical Performance in Dynapenic Postmenopausal Women
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death in the modern world, markedly in postmenopausal women. Increased arterial stiffness, measured as increased pulse wave velocity (PWV), and endothelial dysfunction are large...
Breast cancer survivors (BCS) encounter side effects from cancer treatments that negatively affect muscular strength and body composition, particularly the loss of lean mass. Studies have shown that resistance training (RT) can maintain...
Background: Athletes regularly compete in temperatures ranging from well below 0° Celsius (C) to those exceeding human body temperature (37°C). The lack of current understanding regarding the individual and interactive influences of...
Breast cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer among women in the United States. Although survival rates have improved following diagnosis, breast cancer survivors (BCS) must contend with the negative effects of the disease and...
Overwhelming evidence demonstrates exercising regularly decreases the risk for clinical diseases. One possible explanation for the low exercise adherence rates is the perceptual-cognitive-affective responses that accompany the exercise...
Introduction. Aging involves in a series of deterioration including: brain shrinkage (e.g. loss of neurons and plasticity) and declines in cognitive and physical functions (e.g. memory loss, reduced gait and balance, and loss of muscle...
Purpose: Adequate skeletal perfusion is necessary to maintain bone remodeling processes and bone health. Natural aging leads to progressive bone loss, which may be associated with impaired bone vasomotor function and impaired perfusion....
Introduction: Cold-induced changes in lactate kinetics are critically important for athletes, particularly those training and competing in the cold. Alterations in lactate production and/or clearance may result in altered blood lactate...
Background: It is well established that resistance training (RT) can positively impact musculoskeletal health, physical performance, and cognitive wellness. In contrast, binge drinking can have harmful effects on the aforementioned...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death, with age being the strongest predictor of cardiovascular health. Age-related changes to the vasculature such as endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffening are believed to...
Introduction. TeaCrine® is the pharmaceutically-produced, synthetic version to naturally occurring theacrine (1, 3, 7, 9-tetramethyluric acid) found in the leaves of the Camellia kucha tea plants. Few studies have examined the effects of...
PURPOSE: To examine the influence of the Ultraman triathlon (3 days of non-continuous racing; stage 1: 10 km swim and 144.8 km cycle; stage 2: 275.4 km cycle; stage 3: 84.4 km run) on circulating plasma concentrations of whole-body (CRP, ...
Cancer cachexia is primarily characterized by significant bodyweight loss and skeletal muscle atrophy, resulting from reduced rates of protein synthesis and increased rates of protein breakdown, which are further exacerbated by continued...
Background: Obesity is an ongoing socio-economic worldwide epidemic and major modifiable risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), which continues to be the main determinant of all-cause mortality. A potential mechanism by which obesity...
The goals of this cross-sectional study were to explore correlates of walking speed in a large wide age-ranged population and to identify factors affecting lower walking speed at older ages. Participants were 3, 872 community-dwelling...
Obesity is a known pathological condition associated with impaired glucose homeostasis leading to type 2 diabetes and increased susceptibility to loss of skeletal muscle mass and function. Recent investigations have demonstrated...
