Feasibility, Test–Retest Reliability and Convergent Validity of the Two‐Minute Step Test in Older Adults With Intellectual Disabilities

Journal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cardiorespiratory fitness is a crucial component for health. However, measuring cardiorespiratory fitness in older adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) in practice and in large‐scale studies remains challenging. The Two‐Minute Step Test (2MST) is a submaximal cardiorespiratory fitness test that is brief, relatively easy to ...

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...

Effect of female sex hormones on cardiorespiratory parameters

Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2016
Introduction: Female sex hormones, estrogen and progesterone regulate various phases of the menstrual cycle. Hormonal changes tend to affect various parameters of physical fitness. Maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 max) is a measure of aerobic power. This study

Commuting by bicycle (vs. by car) is associated with improved aerobic power, microvascular function and diminished CO2 output in the atmosphere

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The study investigated whether bicycle compared with car commuting, over relatively small distances, has positive effects on physiological variables, cardiometabolic fitness and CO2 output in the atmosphere. Bike Commuters (11 M, 15 F; age [median value (interquartile range)] 51.5 (38.3–56.8) years; body mass index [BMI] 22.8 (21.0–24.1) kg m ...

A new proposal to guide velocity and inclination in the ramp protocol for the treadmill ergometer

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2003
OBJECTIVE: To suggest criteria to guide protocol prescription in ramp treadmill testing, according to sex and age, based on velocity, inclination, and max VO2 reached by the population studied. METHODS: Prospective study describing heart rate (HR), time,

Investigating Skeletal Muscle Metabolic Adaptations underlying Aerobic Fitness Gains following High Intensity Interval Training in a Rat Model of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension [PDF]

, 2016
poster abstractRationale: In patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) a shift from oxidative to a less efficient non-oxidative (glycolytic) metabolism in skeletal muscle is believed to contribute to the reduced exercise tolerance hallmark of ...

Increases in skin perfusion and blood oxygen in the non‐exercising human limbs during exercise in the heat: Implications for control of circulation

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Blood flow in the inactive limb tissues and skin is widely thought to decline during incremental exercise to exhaustion due to augmented sympathoadrenal vasoconstrictor activity, but direct evidence to support this view is lacking. Here, we investigated the inactive‐forearm haemodynamic (Q̇forearm${\dot{Q}}_{\mathrm{forearm}}$) and oxygenation

Submaximal oxygen uptake efficiency slope as a predictor of VO2max in men with cardiovascular disease [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose: Although V̇O2 max is considered the gold standard measure of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), it can be difficult to attain in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD).
