Effects of strength training, detraining and retraining in muscle strength, hypertrophy and functional tasks in older female adults
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-07-01)
Introduction: Previous studies presented different results regarding the maintenance time of muscular adaptations after strength training and the ability to resume the gains on muscular performance after resumption of the ...
Influence of exposure conditions on the values of strength and absorption in the soil stabilized with lime and rice husk ash
(2013-05-01)
The article presents a study on the influence of exposure conditions on strength and absorption in soil stabilized with lime and rice husk ash. A soil classified as A-4 and CL, known as Red-Yellow Podzol, a hydrated lime ...
The effect of foot support on trunk strength assessment using isokinetic dynamometry
(Ios Press, 2015-01-01)
BACKGROUND: The standardization of trunk-muscle strength assessment is important for clinical practice. OBJECTIVE: To compare trunk muscle strength and electromyographic (EMG) activation of the trunk and lower limb muscles ...
The effects of strength training and raloxifene on bone health in aging ovariectomized rats
(2016-04-01)
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of strength training (ST) and raloxifene (Ral), alone or in combination, on the prevention of bone loss in an aging estrogen-deficient rat model. Aging Wistar female ...
Impact of strength training on fractal correlation property of heart rate variability and peripheral muscle strength in COPD
(2014-01-01)
Purpose: to evaluate the effect of strength training on fractal properties of heart rate dynamics and heart rate variability (HRV) indices in the time and frequency domains, and peripheral muscle strength in COPD. Methods: ...
Concrete Containing Natural Pozzolans: New Challenges for Internal Curing
(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2012)
Natural pozzolans (NP) have proven to be an effective supplementary cementitious material; however, the replacement of ordinary portland cement (OPC) with NP might increase the autogenous and drying shrinkage of concrete. ...
Strength gain through eccentric isotonic training without changes in clinical signs or blood markers
(Biomed Central Ltd., 2013-11-21)
Background: Localized exercises are widely used in rehabilitation processes. The predominant options are exercises with an emphasis on either concentric or eccentric contractions. Eccentric exercises promote greater strength ...
Linear and undulating periodized strength plus aerobic training promote similar benefits and lead to improvement of insulin resistance on obese adolescents
(Elsevier B.V., 2015-03-01)
The present study compares the effectiveness of three types of physical training for obesity control in adolescents submitted to a long-term interdisciplinary therapy. Forty-five post-puberty obese adolescents (15-18yo) ...
Orthodontic brackets removal under shear and tensile bond strength resistance tests - a comparative test between light sources
(Wiley-v C H Verlag Gmbh, 2008-01-01)
We have investigated if a new LEDs system has enough efficient energy to promote efficient shear and tensile bonding strength resistance under standardized tests. LEDs 470 +/- 10 nm can be used to photocure composite during ...
