Book An Evaluation of Cardiorespiratory Responses and Ventilatory Efficiency During Treadmill and Cycling Exercise in Overweight Adolescents

Download or read book An Evaluation of Cardiorespiratory Responses and Ventilatory Efficiency During Treadmill and Cycling Exercise in Overweight Adolescents written by Amanda Cary Scheps and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The assessment of ventilatory efficiency (VE/VCO2 slope) is increasingly being utilized to complement traditional cardiorespiratory fitness testing during graded exercise. The purpose of this study was to compare cardiorespiratory responses and ventilatory efficiency in obese children during a progressive exercise test to volitional fatigue performed on a treadmill and a cycle ergometer. Fifteen obese male (N=3) and female (N=12) adolescents aged 10 to 18 years were recruited in the study and completed both the treadmill and cycle ergometer trials. Mean age and BMI of the sample was 13.3 years and 38.0 kg/m2, respectively. Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) and ventilatory efficiency were determined during both exercise trials. Subsequently, overall VE/VCO2 slope and the slope below and above AT for ventilatory efficiency were compared between the two exercise modes. VO2max was significantly (p

Book Cardiorespiratory Responses During An Aqua Cycling Class

Download or read book Cardiorespiratory Responses During An Aqua Cycling Class written by Kathryn G. Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine the relative exercise intensity and EE during an aqua cycling class and determine if aqua cycling meets ACSM guidelines for exercise prescription. Subjects completed an aqua cycling workout by following along to a pre- recorded video of an aqua cycling class. The total class was 50 minutes in length, including a 5-minute warm-up and a 5-minute cool-down. The average HR and %HRR were 115 + 13.7 bpm and 49 + 9.8%, respectively. The average VO2 and %VO2R were 20.3 + 3.15 ml/kg/min and 47 + 5.3%, respectively. The VO2 corresponded to an average of 5.8 + .90 METs. The average EE was 7.3 + 1.31 kcal/min. The number of calories expended during the entire workout averaged 363 + 65.5 kcals. The average RPE for the entire aqua cycling class was 11.0 + .79. Excluding the warm-up and cool-down, the average RPE for just the 40-minute workout portion of the class was 12.2 + .95. It was concluded that aqua cycling meets ACSM guidelines for improving cardiovascular endurance and controlling body composition and should be an enjoyable, low impact alternative for those individuals with orthopedic issues that make weight-bearing exercise problematic.

Book Cardiorespiratory Responses to Circuit Weight Training as Measured by a Biokinetic Swim bench Test and a Treadmill Run Test

Download or read book Cardiorespiratory Responses to Circuit Weight Training as Measured by a Biokinetic Swim bench Test and a Treadmill Run Test written by Jasson Chiang and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this study was to determine if the cardiorespiratory adaptations to an eight-week circuit weight training program are better measured with a biokinetic swim-bench test versus a standard treadmill test. The working hypothesis of the study was that since standard circuit weight training programs stress the upper body considerably more than the lower body, then the physiological adaptations to the program would be more evident in an upper body test of cardiorespiratory responses than a lower body of the same capacity. Twelve college-aged subjects participated in an eight-week circuit weight training program. Prior to the program, each subject was tested for cardiorespiratory responses by both a treadmill test and a biokinetic swim bench test. At the conclusion of the circuit weight training program, the subjects were re-tested to assess the physiological adaptations that had occurred over the course of the program. The test re-test reliability for the swim bench protocol developed for use in this study was r = .85. Results of the post-test showed no significant changes in maximum oxygen uptake, heart rate, or respiratory rate for either the swim-bench or the treadmill test. There was a significant increase in ventilatory equivalent for both the swim bench and the treadmill tests, and also a significant increase in max Ve for the treadmill test (p

Book Cardiorespiratory Responses to Aquatic Vs Land Cycling Among Healthy  Active College aged Students

Download or read book Cardiorespiratory Responses to Aquatic Vs Land Cycling Among Healthy Active College aged Students written by McKenzie J. Snustead and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquatic cycling has gained in popularity in recent years. The purpose of this study was to determine if there are differences in submaximal and maximal HR and VO2 between land and water exercise. Sixteen healthy, active college-aged students completed two maximal cycling tests, one in the water and one on land. It was found that maximal HR was 14 bpm lower in water compared to on land at max and VO2 was 12% lower in water compared to on land. There was no difference in relative exercise intensity (%HRR and %VO2R) at any RPE level. Heart rate and VO2 were blunted in a linear fashion all the way up to the maximal exertion during aquatic cycling, thus it was concluded that at a given RPE, subjects would be working at the same relative intensity on land and in water.

Book Principles of Exercise Testing and Interpretation

Download or read book Principles of Exercise Testing and Interpretation written by Karlman Wasserman and published by Lww. This book was released on 2015-04-27 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this fifth edition of Principles of Exercise Testing and Interpretation, as in earlier editions, we attempt to develop conceptual advances in the physiology and pathophysiology of exercise, particularly as related to the practice of medicine. The underlying theme of the book continues to be the recognition that the most important requirement for exercise performance is transport of oxygen to support the bioenergetic processes in the muscle cells (including, of course, the heart) and elimination of the carbon dioxide formed as a byproduct of exercise metabolism. Thus, appropriate cardiovascular and ven- tilatory responses are required to match those of muscle respiration in meeting the energy demands of exercise. As depicted by the logo on the book cover, normal exercise performance requires an efficient coupling of external to internal (cellular) respiration. Appropriate treatment of exercise intolerance requires that patients' symptoms be thought of in terms of a gas exchange defect between the cell and the environment. The defect may be in the lungs, heart, peripheral or pulmonary circulations, the muscles themselves, or there may be a combination of defects. Thus, we describe the pathophysiology in gas transport and exchange that affect any site in the cardio- respiratory coupling between the lungs and the muscles. We illustrate how cardiopulmonary exercise testing can provide the means for a critical evaluation by the clinician-scientist of the functional competency of each component in the coupling of cellular to external respiration, including the cardiovascular system. To achieve this, clinical cases are used to illustrate the wide spectrum of pathophysiology capable of causing exercise intolerance"--Provided by publisher.

Book Science and Application of High Intensity Interval Training

Download or read book Science and Application of High Intensity Interval Training written by Laursen, Paul and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2019 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The popularity of high-intensity interval training (HIIT), which consists primarily of repeated bursts of high-intensity exercise, continues to soar because its effectiveness and efficiency have been proven in use by both elite athletes and general fitness enthusiasts. Surprisingly, few resources have attempted to explain both the science behind the HIIT movement and its sport-specific application to athlete training. That’s why Science and Application of High-Intensity Interval Training is a must-have resource for sport coaches, strength and conditioning professionals, personal trainers, and exercise physiologists, as well as for researchers and sport scientists who study high-intensity interval training.
