Comparison between leg and arm eccentric exercises of the same relative intensity on indices of muscle damage
(2005)
Many exercise models have demonstrated associations between eccentric muscle actions and muscle damage. However, the magnitude of muscle damage varies among the models. It appears that responses to eccentric exercise are ...
Short vs. long length of rectus femoris during eccentric exercise in relation to muscle damage in healthy males
(2005)
Background. We investigated the effects of short vs. long length of rectus femoris during eccentric exercise of similar range of motion on selected muscle damage indicators. Methods. Using all isokinetic dynamometer at ...
The effect of eccentric exercise on position sense and joint reaction angle of the lower limbs
(2007)
Impaired position sense and impaired joint reaction angle of the lower limbs after muscle-damaging activities is a serious functional limitation that may lead to an increased risk of injury, particularly in older populations. ...
A brief exposure to moderate passive smoke increases metabolism and thyroid hormone secretion
(2007)
Context: Active smoking influences normal metabolic status and thyroid function. Objective: The objective was to assess experimentally the effects of 1 h of moderate passive smoking in a controlled simulated bar/ restaurant ...
Isokinetic eccentric exercise of quadriceps femoris does not affect running economy
(2008)
Vassilis, P, Vassilios, B, Vassilis, M, Athanasios, JZ, Vassilis, T, Christina, K, and Yiannis, K. Isokinetic eccentric exercise of quadriceps femoris does not affect running economy. J Strength Cond Res 22:1222-1227, ...
The effect of muscle-damaging exercise on blood and skeletal muscle oxidative stress: Magnitude and time-course considerations
(2008)
The aim of this article is to present the effects of acute muscle-damaging exercise on oxidative stress/damage of animal and human tissues using a quantitative approach and focusing on the time-course of exercise effects. ...
Eccentric exercise affects the upper limbs more than the lower limbs in position sense and reaction angle
(2010)
In this study, we investigated the effect of eccentric exercise on position sense and reaction angle of the elbow and knee flexors. Twelve males underwent two eccentric exercise sessions involving a randomized crossover ...
Underweight and obese states both associate with worse disease activity and physical function in patients with established rheumatoid arthritis
(2009)
Obesity is characterised by low-grade inflammation and could potentially affect disease activity and severity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Body mass index (BMI), body fat (BF), erythrocyte sedimentation rate, ...
The effects of muscle damage on walking biomechanics are speed-dependent
(2010)
The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of muscle damage on walking biomechanics at different speeds. Seventeen young women completed a muscle damage protocol of 5 x 15 maximal eccentric actions of the ...
What predicts obesity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis? An investigation of the interactions between lifestyle and inflammation
(2010)
Objective: To assess whether physical activity, diet or inflammation is a more important determinant of body mass index (BMI) and body fat (BF) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis ( RA). Methods: A total of 150 RA patients ...
