Over the past decade, the health industry has increasingly targeted young females with supplements and nutri8on products. Energy drinks such as Reign Inferno market themselves as “thermogenic fuel,” promising to increase caloric expenditure at rest. The primary ingredient of products like Reign Inferno is caffeine. According to Belza et al. (2009), caffeine exerts a thermogenic response that can cause acute increases in res8ng metabolic rate (RMR). Res8ng metabolic rate (RMR) is measured via indirect calorimetry, which uses measures of oxygen consump8on (VNO2) and carbon dioxide produc8on (VNCO2) to approximate caloric expenditure from oxida8ve metabolism. At rest, VNO2 should be approximately …

Barefoot (BF) running is associated with biomechanical alterations that improve performance by increasing running economy (RE). The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of acute BF running on RE in recreational runners. Participants (n = 20) completed treadmill trials in conventional running shoes (CRS) and BF at 60% and 80% of VO2max. A two-way repeated measures analysis of variance (p < 0.05) measured the effects of shoe condition on RE. Results were expected to reflect the speeddependent nature of RE, reduced shoe weight in the BF condition, individualized biomechanical and stride adjustments, and the physiological cost of task novelty. Future directions include expanding population, duration, and variable analysis.

According to García-Ramos et al. (2016), the vertical jump is an essential factor that affects the push-off and start phases of the sport of swimming, which are crucial elements for improving stroke performance and efficiency. Explosive training strategies with resistance and light load work help improve power in the pushing motion. This may be done through plyometric training for out of the water workouts, or resistance training in the water (Makaruk et al., 2020). According to Sheppard et al. (2008), the vertical jump is considered a successful performance indicator in swimming. According to McArdle et al. (2015), the term body …

Resting metabolic rate (RMR) measures the energy a person requires to sustain vital body function while at rest. RMR is the most considerable element of total daily energy expenditure (McArdle et al., 2015). RMR varies depending on gender, age, weight, fat-free body mass (FFM), and physical fitness level (McMurray et al., 2014). During this study, RMR was measured indirectly by measuring the volume of oxygen consumption (VO2), the volume of carbon dioxide production (VCO2) (McMurray et al., 2014). The proper protocol for measuring RMR was to have the subject complete an overnight fast and refrain from working 12-18 hours before …

There has been extensive research by many in the past into body fat percentage measurement methods as well as these measurements. It is historically proven that the common method of BMI is not a good measurement of this, as it is often found that male and female college athletes BMI are significantly higher than non-athletes (Ode et al., 2007). With this in mind, there were many other methods that proved to be more reliable when compared to the golden standard, the bod pod. These methods include bioelectrical impedance (BIA) measurements, and waist-to-hip ratio. For our study, we decided to use …

EDS is a genetic connective tissue disorder which can be classified 13 different ways. Some key features which distinguish this disease are joint hypermobility, skin fragility, joint pain without arthritis, and rupture of blood vessels and internal organs. This pathology can present itself at any age, and no particular type is more common than another. Ethnicity, race, and gender do not seem to determine prevalence of this disease. 1 in every 20,000 people are diagnosed with classical EDS (Ghali et al., 2019). The process of diagnosing a patient includes examination of medical history, skin and musculoskeletal system, and other factors …

The research question posed is, how does relative VO2 of males or females compare to each other? Research has shown that males will have an overall higher VO2 than females. Also, trained individuals will have a higher VO2 than those who are untrained. The purpose of this study is conduct VO2 max tests on trained and untrained males and female to observe the differences in VO2. If the subject is a male, then the VO2 will be higher than the females regardless of training.
