Mobile Devices for Facilitating Group Fitness and Visualization of Fitness Data
… to diseases and poor health. Nowadays, mobile fitness apps serve in important roles in encouraging and facilitating people to do more physical exercise. Many apps focus primarily on individual behavioral strategies, such as displaying individual steps to encourage physical activity. Such …

Running Economy: Improvements In Physiological Efficiency Attained Through Changes In Muscle Structural Morphology
… group without concomitant improvements in fitness data. While RE was not altered, anaerobic energy production was curtailed in the plyometrics group, and this correlated significantly to performance gains and titin isoform shifts, with greater proportions of T1:T2 linking to a blunted …

The Role of Rumination, Negative Affect, and Fitness on Cardiac Rehabilitation Program Outcomes following a Discrete Cardiac Event
… on CR outcomes including program completion and fitness improvements. Fifty-one patients with cardiovascular disease who were enrolled in CR were tracked over the course of their treatment. Objective fitness testing was completed prior to and after CR program completion. Self-reported …

Interval Active-Assisted Cycling Intervention Improves Motor Function in Individuals' with Parkinson's Disease
… quality of life (PDQ-39), and cardiovascular fitness (3-minute step test). All testing was done at baseline and at the end of the four-weeks, except for cardiovascular fitness. Data was analyzed by calculating the change scores and then an independent samples t-test between the groups. …

Descriptive study of aerobic dance-exercise instructional skills
… from 4 to 150 individuals from all levels of fitness. Data were collected using three different methods: demographic questionnaire, on-site data analysis (Tech Checks and the physical location of the instructor) and videotaped analysis (instructional cues, nonverbal cues, general/specific …

Sexual conflict and the evolution of nuptial feeding
… gifts is primarily carried by the male, net fitness of providing or receiving such gifts must be positive for both sexes, if these gifts are to be maintained in a population. If this is not the case, and sexual conflict has exerted a cost-benefit imbalance between the sexes, then the …

Can Physical Activity Reinforce Nutrition Education? Evaluation Of Physical Activity In The Families In Transformation (Fit), Wellness Program For Children.
… quiz, health habits survey, anthropometric data, and fitness data were obtained pre and post study to determine if the intervention had an impact on the subjects. Results: there were no significant differences seen in pre and post bmi. The means for the fitness test results are found in …

The internet of things : securing devices and user data
… systems which often handle a lot of sensitive data. Developing secure and trustworthy IoT systems is hard and challenging due to IoT environment characteristics by nature such as resource constraints, heterogeneity architectures, and wireless communications. This thesis investigates security …

The cost of longevity: loss of sexual function in natural clones of Populus tremuloides
… can accumulate, reducing the overall sexual fitness of a clone. We coupled neutral genetic divergence within clones with pollen fitness data to infer the rate and effect of mildly deleterious mutations. Mutations reduced relative sexual fitness in clonal aspen populations by about 0.12x10^-3 …

The influence a 10-week Zulu stick fighting intervention programme has on motor proficiency and health-related physical fitness of prepubescent Zulu males
… motor proficiency and healthrelated physical fitness parameters such as body composition, cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, muscular endurance and muscular strength. Twenty two prepubescent Zulu males (mean age = 9.80 ± 0.64 years, range 8.60-11.10) formed the experimental group and twenty …

Intrinsic Control Strategies for Herpesvirus-based Vaccine Vectors
… of deleterious mutations and loss of fitness. Data presented in the thesis showed that HCMVUL54(ΔD413) had an accumulation of mutations consistent with an increased mutation rate and lower fidelity. The final attenuation strategy was based on engineering viruses in which the transgenes …

Population dynamics and reproductive ecology of the gynodioecious prairie species Lobelia spicata Lam. (Campanulaceae)
… coexisting within populations. Although some data on the reproductive ecology of L. spicata has been gathered, the population and breeding system dynamics of this species remain unexplored. Consequently, a literature review and a field study were conducted where population and reproductive …
