Download or read book Exercise Immunology written by Michael Gleeson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exercise immunology is an important, emerging sub-discipline within exercise physiology, concerned with the relationship between exercise, immune function and infection risk. This book offers a comprehensive, up-to-date and evidence-based introduction to exercise immunology, including the physiological and molecular mechanisms that determine immune function and the implications for health and performance in sport and everyday life. Written by a team of leading exercise physiologists, the book describes the characteristics of the immune system and how its components are organised to form an immune response. It explains the physiological basis of the relationship between stress, physical activity, immune function and infection risk, and identifies the ways in which exercise and nutrition interact with immune function in athletes and non-athletes. The book shows students how to evaluate the strengths and limitations of the evidence linking physical activity, immune system integrity and health, and explains why exercise is associated with anti-inflammatory effects that are potentially beneficial to long-term health. Every chapter includes useful features, such as clear summaries, definitions of key terms, discussions of seminal research studies and practical guidelines for athletes on ways to minimise infection risk, with additional learning resources available on a companion website. This is an essential textbook for any course on exercise immunology or advanced exercise physiology.

Book Muscle Recovery After Exercise  Training and Competition  Physiological Indicators and Non invasive Monitoring Techniques

Download or read book Muscle Recovery After Exercise Training and Competition Physiological Indicators and Non invasive Monitoring Techniques written by Alessandro Moura Zagatto and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The desire to improve muscle function and prevent overuse injuries from exercise and throughout training has led to the development of various methods to aid recovery and track readiness to perform. Ergogenic aids such as cold-water immersion, massage, and dynamic recovery procedures may have positive effects but the results of the related research remain equivocal. Furthermore, novel interventions in this scenario, like compression garments, ice vests, and photobiomodulation therapy are promising but need more evidence-based data to support their effectiveness. Similarly, to properly monitor individual physical conditioning, there is a growing interest toward unobtrusive measures to accurately represent physiological status during and/or after exercise. There are several techniques being used, such as subjective ratings of well-being, heart rate monitoring, hormonal and hematological profile assessments. However, more sensitive indexes like heart rate variability and muscle activation (voluntary and/or involuntary) are arising as attractive alternatives that may delineate physical conditioning status and readiness to perform more precisely than the aforementioned measures. The purpose of this Research Topic is to critically evaluate and summarize recent data from observational and intervention studies related to non-invasive methods designed to promote recovery and objectively monitor training status. Their association to physical performance and physiological recovery in athletes during training and competition is a major focus of this Topic.

Book Post Exercise Recovery  Fundamental and Interventional Physiology

Download or read book Post Exercise Recovery Fundamental and Interventional Physiology written by Sergej M. Ostojic and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2016-05-25 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physiological responses after maximal and submaximal exercise are routinely monitored in a plethora of diseases (e.g. cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes, asthma, neuromuscular disorders), and normal populations (e.g. athletes, youth, elderly), while slower or irregular post-exercise recovery usually indicates poor health and/or low fitness level. Abnormal post-exercise recovery (as assessed via blunted post-exercise heart rate dynamics) helps to predict the presence and severity of coronary artery disease, while differences in recovery outcomes in athletes might discriminate between fit and unfit individuals. Disturbances in post-exercise recovery might be due to acute or persistent changes in: (1) adaptive responses mediated by the autonomic nervous system and vasodilator substances, (2) cellular bioenergetics, and/or (3) muscular plasticity. Preliminary evidence suggests possible role of time-dependent modulation of nitric oxide synthase and adenosine receptors during post-exercise recovery, yet no molecular attributes of post-exercise recovery are revealed so far. Currently several markers of post-exercise recovery are used (e.g. heart rate measures, hormone profiles, biochemical and hematological indices); however none of them meets all criteria to make its use generally accepted as the gold standard. In addition, recent studies suggest that different pharmacological agents and dietary interventions, or manipulative actions (e.g. massage, cold-water immersion, compression garments, athletic training) administered before, during or immediately after exercise could positively affect post-exercise recovery. There is a growing interest to provide more evidence-based data concerning the effectiveness and safety of traditional and novel interventions to affect post-exercise recovery. The goals of this research topic are to critically evaluate the current advances on mechanisms and clinical implications of post-exercise recovery, and to summarize recent experimental data from interventional studies. This knowledge may help to identify the hierarchy of key mechanisms, and recognize methods to monitor and improve post-exercise recovery in both health and disease.

Book Comparison of Post exercise Recovery Strategies on Physiological and Biochemical Markers of Exercise induced Muscle Damage

Download or read book Comparison of Post exercise Recovery Strategies on Physiological and Biochemical Markers of Exercise induced Muscle Damage written by Carrie M. Nix and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the elite competitor, to the weekend athlete, or as a result of everyday activities, muscle injuries are a way of life. To date, no studies have examined the effectiveness of the Alter-G G-Trainer to enhance muscle recovery from injury. Twenty-five recreationally active males between 18 and 35 were randomly assigned to one of three recovery groups: G-Trainer, treadmill running, static stretching. Recovery was performed 30 minutes, 24, 48, and 72 hours following a 45 minute downhill run. Isokinetic strength, creatine kinase, superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, muscle soreness and mood states were assessed at baseline, 15 minutes, 3, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours post-exercise. Significant time effects were observed for isokinetic knee flexion/extension at 60 and 180°/second, muscle soreness (p

Book Effects of Carbohydrate protein Intake During Marathon Running on Post exercise Markers of Muscle Damage and Recovery

Download or read book Effects of Carbohydrate protein Intake During Marathon Running on Post exercise Markers of Muscle Damage and Recovery written by and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to investigate indices of muscle damage and recovery in novice runners following completion of a marathon, and compare responses in these indices when receiving carbohydrate (CHO) or carbohydrate-protein (CHO+Pro) supplementation during the marathon run. Methods: 16 subjects were arranged into matched-pairs based on muscle damage responses; determined by serum kinase (CK) levels following an 18-mile training run. Subjects' perceived ratings of muscle soreness and mental/physical energy/fatigue, maximal isometric force of the leg extensors (MVC), and serum CK were measured on three occasions: prior to the marathon, 24 hours post-marathon and 72 hours post-marathon. During the 26.2-mile marathon run, subjects consumed energy gels (100 kcal/packet) at four-mile intervals throughout the event. Members of each matched-pair were assigned to a CHO (25 g CHO) or CHO+Pro (20 g CHO, 5 g Pro) gel in a randomly counterbalanced design. Results: Significant declines in MVC, and mental energy ratings were observed 24-hours post-marathon, with significant increases in serum CK, muscle soreness, and physical fatigue ratings. These responses were attenuated by 72 hours post-marathon (in comparison to 24-hour levels), but serum CK and perceived muscle soreness remained significantly different from pre-marathon levels. No significant differences were observed between CHO and CHO+Pro treatments for any of the muscle recovery variables studied. Conclusions: Marathon running results in significant impairment in skeletal muscle function, soreness/fatigue, and elevated markers of sarcolemmal damage for at least 72 hours post-event. CHO+Pro ingestion during the marathon does not appear to influence post-marathon muscle recovery in comparison to CHO intake alone.

Download or read book Not Eating Enough written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1995-09-01 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eating enough food to meet nutritional needs and maintain good health and good performance in all aspects of lifeâ€"both at home and on the jobâ€"is important for all of us throughout our lives. For military personnel, however, this presents a special challenge. Although soldiers typically have a number of options for eating when stationed on a base, in the field during missions their meals come in the form of operational rations. Unfortunately, military personnel in training and field operations often do not eat their rations in the amounts needed to ensure that they meet their energy and nutrient requirements and consequently lose weight and potentially risk loss of effectiveness both in physical and cognitive performance. This book contains 20 chapters by military and nonmilitary scientists from such fields as food science, food marketing and engineering, nutrition, physiology, psychology, and various medical specialties. Although described within a context of military tasks, the committee's conclusions and recommendations have wide-reaching implications for people who find that job-related stress changes their eating habits.

Book Molecular and Cellular Markers in Skeletal Muscle Damage After Acute Voluntary Exercise Containing Eccentric Muscle Contractions

Download or read book Molecular and Cellular Markers in Skeletal Muscle Damage After Acute Voluntary Exercise Containing Eccentric Muscle Contractions written by Satu O.A. Koskinen and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In eccentric muscle contraction, the muscle is lengthening while contracting. For example, in downhill walking, the thigh muscles are contracting eccentrically. It is well known that unaccustomed eccentric exercise causes pain and may lead to inflammation reactions on muscles few days after the exercise. The theme of the present chapter is molecular and cellular markers in skeletal muscle damage after voluntary exercise containing eccentric muscle contractions. The chapter contains three topics: In the first topic, the damaging process followed by regeneration is demonstrated with antibody stainings of connective tissue, plasma membrane, and cytoskeletal proteins. The second topic is infiltration of inflammatory cells in damaged skeletal muscle. Neutrophils are usually the first inflammatory cells mostly present in the injured tissues; however, neutrophils are not present in exercise-induced skeletal muscle damage. Finally, the relationship between skeletal muscle damage and systematic markers, serum creatine kinase and voluntary maximal force production, is described.

Book Impact of Protein Supplementation on Muscle Recovery After Exercise induced Muscle Soreness

Download or read book Impact of Protein Supplementation on Muscle Recovery After Exercise induced Muscle Soreness written by Elizabeth Carol Dahlstrom and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigated whether protein (PRO [0.4g/kg]) vs. carbohydrate (CHO [0.4g/kg]) vs. placebo nutrition supplements would alleviate muscle soreness when consumed immediately after eccentric exercise in 21 untrained men aged 18-30 years. During this double-blind randomized block study design, each subject completed three, 3-day trials (separated by ≥2 weeks), identical except for treatment, with each serving as his own control. Trials began with a bout of right leg eccentric exercise (Biodex), followed directly by treatment. At 0 (baseline), 24, and 48 hours, data were collected: creatine phosphokinase (CPK) from pre-exercise blood samples, subjective muscle soreness questions, and strength tests (power, torque, work). ANOVA indicated that exercise caused mild muscle damage, evidenced by an overall day effect (p≤0.0001) for muscle soreness, with the lowest median values (0 to 10 scale) on day 1 (0.7), increasing (p≤0.0001) on day 2 (3.2), and remaining elevated on day 3 (3.4). We also noted an overall day effect (p≤0.0001) for CPK, with lowest median values (U/L) on day 1 (136), increasing (p≤0.0001) on day 2 (235), and remaining elevated on day 3 (189). ANOVA revealed no significant treatment effect on indicators of soreness or damage during recovery. Our results indicated that a PRO or CHO supplement after exercise causing mild muscle damage did not facilitate muscle recovery in adequately nourished, healthy young men.
