Effect of Concurrent Sprint Interval and Resistance Training on Measures of Strength, Power, and Aerobic Performance 

Laird, Richard, IV (2013-07-19)
PURPOSE: The purpose of this investigation was to determine if sprint interval training (SIT) performed concurrently with resistance training resulted in adaptive interference, had no effect, or caused synergistic enhancement ...

Experimental woodsmoke exposure during exercise and an evaluation of blood oxidative stress 

Peters, Bridget (2015-05-18)
Introduction: Woodsmoke exposure and exercise elicit oxidative stress in blood. The purpose of this investigation was to understand the effects of woodsmoke exposure on blood oxidative stress measures. Methods: Ten males ...

Interleukin-6 and Exercise-Induced Cardioprotection 

McGinnis, Graham (2014-07-11)
Ischemia-Reperfusion (IR) injury is the leading cause of death in the US and industrialized nations. Exercise preconditioning has emerged as a unique method to reduce the injury associated with IR, yet the mechanisms have ...

Near infrared spectroscopy to assess the onset of increased metabolism and muscle tissue oxygenation during muscle contractions 

Sun, Yi (2012-11-15)
The aims of the present study were to 1) Determine whether there is a time delay (TD) in VO2 at the onset of contractions by comparing the NIRS responses during blood perfusion versus hemoglobin (Hb)-free buffer perfusion; ...

Oxidative Stress and Heart Rate Variability Following an Accute Bout of CrossFit 

Kliszczewicz, Brian (2014-05-01)
The purpose of this Dissertation was to provide a better understanding of the physiological stress involved in the newly popular style of exercise named CrossFit, and compare these findings to a more ‘traditional’ mode of ...

V•O2 On-Kinetics in Skeletal Muscle in Normoxia and Hypoxia with Matched Convective O2 Delivery 

McDonald, James R. (2012-05-03)
The aim of this investigation was to evaluate O2 uptake (V•O2) on-kinetics under hypoxic conditions while holding convective O2 delivery constant in isolated canine muscles in situ. Canine gastrocnemius muscles (n=7) ...
