This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous research has shown the effectiveness of milk/whey protein plus exercise on increasing muscle size, optimizing body composition and increasing strength in adult males and females. Greek yogurt (GY) contains similar muscle-supporting nutrients as milk yet it is different in several ways including being a solid food, and it has yet to be investigated in this context. Thus, the purpose of this study was to assess the effects of GY consumption plus exercise (resistance and plyometric) training on strength, muscle thickness and body composition. Thirty untrained, university-aged (18-25 years) males were randomized to 2 groups (fat-free, plain GY; n= 15, or a Placebo Pudding [PP; isoenergetic carbohydrate-based pudding]; n= 15) and underwent a combined resistance/plyometric training program 3d/week for 12 weeks. They consumed either GY (20 g protein per serving) or PP (0 g protein per serving) daily (GY: 3x200 g on training days and 2x150 g on non-training days; spread throughout the day). After 12 weeks, both groups significantly increased strength, muscle thickness and fat-free mass from baseline (p

Download or read book Functional Kinesiology in Health and Performance written by Elena Mainer Pardos and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-05-29 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The state of the world's health is critical. Customers seek trustworthy healthcare professionals because the health industry is rife with contradicting information and out-of-date science. Frequently, students are still being taught out-of-date material and a variety of tools without any recommendations for practical application, leaving them feeling overburdened, perplexed, and insecure. Both of these issues were addressed by the invention of functional kinesiology. Kinesiology is the application of the sciences of biomechanics, anatomy, physiology, psychology, and neuroscience to the study of human and animal movement, performance, and function. It examines the mechanisms behind both human and animal movement, with particular attention to the roles played by the skeletal, joint, and muscular systems. Moreover, a foundation and practitioner training pathway is provided by functional kinesiology. The foundation training employs Kinesiology muscle monitoring and the concepts to evaluate the body's energy systems and rebalance them with safe and effective physical, electrical, emotional, and dietary procedures. Sports practice has health benefits in youth and adulthood. Functional kinesiology is about combining the techniques of kinesiology with cutting-edge research in functional nutrition and functional medicine. This method tries to work with the six pillars mentioned above for people to regain their health fully. Among them are diet, adrenals and stress, sex hormones, digestion, and immune and emotional transformation. Given the growing participation of athletes in team and individual sports worldwide, it is necessary to analyze the effect of kinesiology protocols on health and performance. To push forward innovative approaches, this Special Issue calls for original articles, systematic reviews, or meta-analyses that may substantially contribute to data analysis related to functional kinesiology, performance and health. This Research Topic pursues the following goals explicitly: Review of studies related to functional kinesiology of athletes in teenagers and adults. Review of studies on how athletes achieve better health or performance. Review of studies on the quality of training load with bio-motor ability and wellness variables.

Allison and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resistance training and protein supplementation have been shown to increase muscle mass and strength, and thus may be an effective method to combat muscle wasting (sarcopenia) that occurs with aging. Thirty-six males (62.5 yrs, 177 cm and 95.25 kg) were randomly assigned to ingest either whey isolate protein, casein protein or carbohydrate while participating in a 12-week high intensity resistance training program. Resistance training increased both upper and lower body strength, body mass and lean muscle mass while decreasing body fat percentage. However, no effects from training were observed on serum anabolic hormones and indirect markers of satellite cell activation. A trend towards significantly higher lower body strength was observed in the whey isolate (p=0.053) and casein (p=0.086) groups, respectively, compared to carbohydrate placebo group. The present study suggests protein supplementation in conjunction with high intensity resistance training may be important in combating sarcopenia.

Download or read book Effects of Testosterone Lifelong Physical Activity and Resistive Exercise on Skeletal Muscle Structure and Function in Older Males written by Ross Alexander Atkinson and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ageing is associated with a reduction in skeletal muscle mass (sarcopenia) which impacts on musculoskeletal health (Rosenberg 1997) and affects even successfully ageing adults (Roubenoff 2002). The causes of sarcopenia include reduced neural drive, decreased physical activity levels, poor nutrition and alterations in immunological and hormonal status (Narici and Maffulli 2010). Frailty is a clinical syndrome also associated with several age-related conditions, reduced muscle strength, disability and death (Fried, Tangen et al. 2001). The burden placed upon the health service by those suffering from the combined effects of these conditions is substantial, and therefore ways to prevent age-related deteriorations in musculoskeletal health are clearly warranted. Previously it has been shown that testosterone (T) plays an important role in skeletal muscle development and regulation, and reductions in this hormone have been identified as a major factor contributing to the development of sarcopenia (Ianuzzi-Sucich, Prestwood et al. 2002). Resistance training (RT), however, is the main promoter of skeletal muscle hypertrophy, and is effective in older adults as well as in the young (Fiatarone, Marks et al. 1990). While it is clear that there is a close relationship between muscle mass, strength and T, the variation in each of these parameters in ageing individuals with differing levels of physical activity is less well known. The present work therefore aims to address some of these aspects. Cross-sectional data from this thesis suggest that T does indeed have a positive effect on skeletal muscle mass and strength. T is also an important regulator of BMI. This work also shows that while muscle mass and strength may not be markedly altered in men with low T levels at older age, physiological T replacement does promote preservation of muscle mass in men with low to borderline low T. Despite this, it is unclear whether a marked increase in strength follows. Continued high levels of physical activity into older age (chronic exercise) may be associated with modest maintenance of circulating T levels, but without substantial benefits to muscle size and strength. It is evident from this work, however, that periodised RT regimes in older men may have beneficial effects on circulating T, muscle mass and strength. It is envisaged that future therapies aimed at offsetting the effects of muscle wasting could involve a combination of androgen treatment and resistance exercise.
