This book was released on 2000 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low bone mineral density (BMD) and poor stability both contribute to increased risk of fractures associated with a fall. The aim of this dissertation was two-fold. The first study, a cross-sectional analysis, sought to determine the anthropometric and/or performance variables that best predicted BMD and postural stability in mature, premenopausal women (N=59). Based on the information gained from the cross-sectional study, a prospective exercise-intervention trial was designed to determine the effects of a 12-month progressive impact (jump) plus lower body resistance training and six-month detraining program on risk factors for hip fracture in the same group of mature premenopausal women (age=30-45 yrs; N=49). Bone mineral density (hip, spine, and whole body), body composition, muscle strength, muscle power and dynamic postural stability were the primary measures evaluated in each study. Results from the cross-sectional study showed that lean mass was an important predictor of BMD, while hip abductor torque and leg power were independent predictors of BMD at clinically relevant fracture sites (hip and spine). Higher fat mass contributed to the majority of the variance in poor stability, indicating that greater fat mass may compromise stability and thus, increase fall risk in heavier individuals. Thus, the exercise program implemented in the intervention trial was designed to maximize gains in BMD, muscle mass, strength and power. Results from the intervention trial showed that 12-months of jump plus resistance training significantly improved hip BMD, body composition, muscle strength, power and stability in mature premenopausal women; however, the positive benefits of impact plus resistance training on the musculoskeletal reversed when training was withdrawn.

Download or read book A Study of the Relationship of Self Reported Resistance Training to Lipid Profiles written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of self-reported resistance training to lipid profiles. The study consisted of 10 subjects between the ages of 19 and 35. Participants were assigned to an exercise group or control group based on self-reported resistance training and according to ACSM standards. After means were determined for the data gathered, the exercise group had lower averages of weight, percent body fat, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein and triglycerides, as well as, a higher average of high-density lipoproteins. Two sample t-tests were performed to determine significance. It was determined that no significant difference existed between serum lipid profile levels of the control group and the self-reported exercise group. This study is important because it expands our knowledge of the relationship between resistance training (RT) and lipid profiles, relying on self-reported data and focusing on an at-risk population.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of fitness and body composition standards in the U.S. Armed Forces has always been to select individuals best suited to the physical demands of military service, based on the assumption that proper body weight and composition supports good health, physical fitness, and appropriate military appearance. The current epidemic of overweight and obesity in the United States affects the military services. The pool of available recruits is reduced because of failure to meet body composition standards for entry into the services and a high percentage of individuals exceeding military weight-for-height standards at the time of entry into the service leave the military before completing their term of enlistment. To aid in developing strategies for prevention and remediation of overweight in military personnel, the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command requested the Committee on Military Nutrition Research to review the scientific evidence for: factors that influence body weight, optimal components of a weight loss and weight maintenance program, and the role of gender, age, and ethnicity in weight management.
