Feelings of Energy, Exercise-Related Self-Efficacy, and Voluntary Exercise Participation

Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology, 2013
This study used a path analysis approach to examine the relationship between feelings of energy, exercise-related self-efficacy beliefs, and exercise participation. A cross-sectional mailing survey design was used to measure feelings of physical and mental energy, task and scheduling self-efficacy beliefs, and voluntary moderate and vigorous exercise ...

Effect of voluntary exercise on longevity of rats

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1985
The purpose of this study was to obtain information regarding the effects of exercise on longevity in rats. The exercise used was voluntary activity wheel running. The runners gradually decreased their running from approximately 4 to approximately 1 mile/day as they aged from 9 to 30 mo.

Cerebral metabolism after forced or voluntary physical exercise

Brain Research, 2011
The pathophysiology of stroke, a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, is still in the process of being understood. Pre-ischemic exercise has been known to be beneficial in reducing the severity of stroke-induced brain injury in animal models. Forced exercise with a stressful component, rather than voluntary exercise, was better able to induce ...

Hypoxia following voluntary hyperventilation during exercise in man

Respiration Physiology, 1991
The importance of carbon dioxide in the control of ventilation during exercise was tested by emptying CO2 stores by voluntary hyperventilation. Healthy subjects were studied after 3 min hyperventilation down to an end-tidal PCO2 of about 20 mmHg on a background of steady exercise at 75 W.

Immunomodulation by 8‐week voluntary exercise in mice

Acta Physiologica Scandinavica, 2000
This study was designed to evaluate the effects of voluntary exercise on macrophage and lymphocyte functions in mice. Male A/He inbred mice aged 19 weeks were divided into two groups: a group given voluntary exercise and a control group (n = 10 in each group). Exercise consisted of spontaneous running in wheels for 8 weeks (3 days week–1).

VALUE OF SELECTIVE VOLUNTARY EXERCISE

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1923
The partial or complete loss of function following infectious arthritis is due to changes in the structure of the synovial membrane, the cartilage and the bones; to periarticular changes, or to changes in the muscles that control the movements of the joints; to any two, and not infrequently to all three. The synovial membrane is usually thickened, and

Voluntary Exercise during Chronic Renal Failure in Rats

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2005
Chronic renal failure (CRF) patients often experience a significant degradation in quality of life that is associated with decreased physical fitness. Previous animal studies have used forced running or swimming as modalities to investigate the interactions between exercise and CRF.

Enhanced Voluntary Exercise Improves Functional Recovery following Spinal Cord Injury by Impacting the Local Neuroglial Injury Response and Supporting the Rewiring of Supraspinal Circuits

Journal of Neurotrauma, 2018
Recent reports suggest that rehabilitation measures that increase physical activity of patients can improve functional outcome after incomplete spinal cord injuries (iSCI).

Downregulation of Cough by Exercise and Voluntary Hyperpnea

Lung, 2010
No information exists on the effects of hyperpnea on the sensory and cognitive aspects of coughing evoked by inhalation of tussigenic agents. The threshold for the cough reflex induced by inhalation of increasing concentrations of ultrasonically nebulized distilled water (fog), and the index of cough reflex sensitivity, was assessed in 12 healthy ...

Metabolic alterations induced by voluntary exercise and discontinuation of exercise in hamsters

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1982
A study was conducted to determine the possible biochemical mechanisms responsible for the rapid increase in body weight and body fat during the early phase of exercise-retirement. Thirty-two adult female hamsters were allotted to four groups of eight each. One group served as sedentary controls. Other groups had access to voluntary disc-running during
