Post-Exercise Hypotension in Brief Exercise
… to examine whether a single 10 minute bout of exercise, performed at multiple intervals throughout the day to equal 30 minutes, can effectively elicit post-exercise hypotension (PEH). Secondly, it is important to explore whether a light (40% VO2R) or moderate (70% VO2R) intensity is required to …

Exercise Induced Hypervolemia: Role of Exercise Mode
The supine posture has been shown to limit exercise-induced plasma volume expansion. Differences in hydrostatic pressure gradients between the standing and seated position indicate that treadmill exercise might promote a greater plasma volume expansion than cycle ergometer exercise. To test this …

Growth response to resistance exercise : influence of exercise device
… response elicited by an acute bout of resistance exercise (RE) conducted on a traditional weight stack device (WS) and a flywheel device (FW). Eight recreationally trained males (25 ± 9 y, 77 ± 27 kg) performed 4 sets of 7 repetitions of bilateral knee extension on each exercise device separated …

Exercise and lactational performance : the role of exercise intensity and the timing of an acute exercise bout
… of this study was to determine whether an acute exercise bout in lactating women performed at two different exercise intensities and at different time intervals between exercise and feeding, affects breast milk composition, production and lactate concentration. Eight untrained women, whose …

Exercise leader interaction analysis of ACSM rehabilitative exercise specialist candidates
… subjects were audio and video taped during their exercise leadership examination. The tapes were used to code the interactions that occurred between the exercise leaders and the participants in the simulated cardiac rehabilitation exercise session using an interaction analysis system developed …

Green exercise: Combined influence of environment and exercise to promote wellbeing
Exercise participation is linked to mental health and wellbeing. However, we need to identify optimal settings for promoting exercise-associated wellbeing outcomes, and for promoting exercise adherence. The literature suggests environmental settings may be important. The aim of this thesis was to …

Measuring Self-Reported Exercise, Motivation to Exercise, and Sexism in Women
… study was designed to investigate whether exercise type and motivation to exercise would predict participants’ self-reported benevolent and hostile sexism, particularly in light of gender-related stereotypes about physical activity. A sample of 79 females completed an online survey that …

Dose-Response Association Between Acute Exercise Duration, Exercise Recovery and Cognitive Function
Previous studies have shown moderate intensity exercise to be a desired intensity level to optimize cognitive function, however, this research has mostly been conducted among older adults despite the claim that cognitive function may start to decline in the early years (i.e., 20s). Another research …

The Effect of Post Exercise Nutrition on Anabolic Response to Resistance Exercise
Purpose: To determine the effect of four postexercise beverages, differing in macronutrient content, on metabolic response to an acute resistance exercise bout. Methods: Forty male subjects performed five sets of eight repetitions at 80% 1RM for leg press and leg extension, and then consumed one of …

Cognitive Bias Modification & Exercise
… mental well-being, cognitive bias and physical exercise. The introduction of this thesis begins with a perspective of the relationship between cognitive interpretation bias, physical exercise and mental well-being, specifically anxiety. The thesis begins with two studies which measure the effect …

Exercise in artificial gravity
… by combining centrifugation with lower-body exercise. The exercise device is a small stair-stepper with constant resistance provided by dampers beneath each foot, and is the first such device to be used in centrifuge studies. We modified the existing centrifuge to support the additional …

Post Exercise Ingestion of Plant vs Animal Protein Enhances Exercise Performance Outcomes Similarly
… of a carbohydrate-protein supplement after exercise has garnered considerable interest among both athletes and scientists. However, debate exists about whether the type of protein consumed, animal vs plant, affects exercise performance differently. Thus, it is the purpose of this …

Autophagy During and Following Dynamic Exercise in Young Adults: Influence of Exercise Intensity
… plays a critical role in the cell’s response to exercise-induced cell stress. Exercise intensity and elevations in tissue temperature are known to modulate autophagic activation, however, the relationship is still unclear. Thus, we investigated the effect of increasing intensities of exercise, as …
