Book Relationship Between a Two Mile Run and Maximal Oxygen Uptake

Download or read book Relationship Between a Two Mile Run and Maximal Oxygen Uptake written by Robert P. Mello and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between a maximal effort two-mile run for time and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) as measured by treadmill running. Subjects were forty-four males (aged 20-51) and seventeen females (aged 20-37) of various fitness and activity levels. All subjects performed a timed two mile run and a treadmill running test for maximal oxygen uptake. The coefficient of correlation between the treadmill maximal test and the two mile run test for all subjects was -0.91. Separate regression analyses for male and female data also displayed significant correlations (r sub m -0.91, r sub f -0.89). The addition fo such variables as age, height, weight, and % body fat did not improve the predictability of the equations. However, inclusion of body weight in the male equation did increase its predictive accuracy (SEE = 3.31 to 2.69). The high degree of the other. This study confirms the usefulness and validity of a timed 2 mile run test to indicate the level of aerobic fitness capacity when the test is properly supervised and the subjects are well-motivated. Keywords: Running performance, Predicted aerobic capacity, Maximal performance.

Book The Effect of Breathing High Concentrations of Oxygen on Treadmill Performance and Selected Physiological Variables

Download or read book The Effect of Breathing High Concentrations of Oxygen on Treadmill Performance and Selected Physiological Variables written by David A. Cunningham and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was the purpose of this study to investigate the effects of breathing high concentrations of oxygen (70-73 percent oxygen in nitrogen) on treadmill performance and on the exercise and post-exercise pulse rate and the relationship between excess lactic acid production and oxygen debt. Seven relatively fit students and faculty members of the University of Alberta served as subjects for this experiment. The subjects participated in repeated tests for both the oxygen and air trials. Each subject underwent a preliminary maximal oxygen intake test to determine the treadmill grade at which he reached his maximal oxygen intake. The subsequent maximal performance trials were run at this predetermined treadmill grade. During each maximal performance trial the following information was recorded: time to reach exhaustion; pre-exercise, exercise and post-exercise heart rate; pre-exercise and post-exercise oxygen intake; and lactic and pyruvic acid levels. The results showed a statistically significant improvement in treadmill performance time for the oxygen trials as compared to the air trials. The oxygen debt was significantly reduced for the first minute of recovery for the oxygen trials, despite the significantly longer performance time. There was no difference in the oxygen debt between the oxygen and air trials after the first minute of recovery. The oxygen debts of both trials appioached an asymptote by the eighth minute of recovery. Little difference was observed between the recovery levels of pyruvic- acid after the air and oxygen trials. The lactic acid levels were observed to be lower after the oxygen trials as compared to the air trials. The mean peak values of excess lactic acid found during the third minute of recovery was significantly lowered by the breathing of high concentrations of oxygen during an exhaustion run on the treadmill. This was evident even though the mean performance time while breathing oxygen was significantly longer. A relationship was observed after the third minute of recovery between excess lactic acid and oxygen debt but not between the lactic acid and oxygen debt. Breathing high concentrations of oxygen during the maximal performance did not alter the apparent relationship between excess lactic acid and oxygen debt or the apparent lack of relationship between lactic acid and oxygen debt• The relationship between excess lactic acid and oxygen debt did not appear to be a one to one relationship. The increase in excess lactic acid during the eight minutes of recovery was greater than the increase in oxygen debt.

Book Relationship Between the Army Two Mile Run Test and Maximal Oxygen Uptake

Download or read book Relationship Between the Army Two Mile Run Test and Maximal Oxygen Uptake written by and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forty-four male (aged 20-51) and seventeen female (aged 20-37) subjects of various fitness and activity levels were evaluated on a two mile run for time and on a treadmill for maximal oxygen consumption. The coefficient of correlation between the treadmill maximal test and the two mile run test for all subjects was -0.91. Separate regression analyses for male and female data also displayed significant correlations (rm = -0.91, rf = -0.89). Stepwise multiple regression analysis of such anthropometric variables as age, height, weight, and % body fat demonstrated that, individually, none of these parameters significantly improved the predictability of both the male and female equations. However, inclusion of body weight in the male equation did improve the predictive accuracy (SEE = 3.31 to 2.69). The high degree of correlation demonstrated between VO2 max and two mile run time thus permits the estimation of either component with significant accuracy from the direct measurement of the other. This study confirms the usefulness and validity of the Army's 2 mile run for time test to indicate the level of aerobic fitness capacity when the test is properly supervised and the subjects are well-motivated. Keywords: Maximal 02 uptake, Aerobic fitness, Running performance, Predicted aerobic capacity.

  • Release : 2013-11-13
  • ISBN : 0309283140
  • Pages : 503 pages

Download or read book Educating the Student Body written by Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.

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.
