Cardiorespiratory Fitness Level Alters Blood Pressure Responses Induced By Histamine H1- And H2-Receptor Blockade During Dynamic Exercise, Albert A. Lira Jr., Dustin J. Lirazan, Ronaldo U. Meneses, Sung J. Yun, Jong-Kyung Kim
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Epidemiological studies have reported that greater cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is associated with lower blood pressure (BP). Histamine receptor-mediated peripheral vasodilation contributes to postexercise hypotension and lowing exercising BP responses. Previously, our laboratory found that overactive BP responses to exercise were induced by the inability of histamine receptors in individuals with prehypertension. However, it is still unknown that CRF can impact BP responses elicited by the inability of the receptors. Purpose: This study was to assess whether aerobic fitness is effective in lowering excessive BP responses induced by the blockade of histamine receptors. Methods: In twelve male and female subjects (6 …
Acute Effect Of Dietary Supplementation With Grape Seed Extract Attenuates Blood Pressure Increase During Cold Pressor Test In Prehypertensive Men, Sarah Greenawalt, Albert A. Lira Jr., Kylie J. Morrison, Ronaldo U. Meneses, Christen J. Lutz, Savannah C. Ulhir, Jong-Kyung Kim
Acute Effect Of Dietary Supplementation With Grape Seed Extract Attenuates Blood Pressure Increase During Cold Pressor Test In Prehypertensive Men, Sarah Greenawalt, Albert A. Lira Jr., Kylie J. Morrison, Ronaldo U. Meneses, Christen J. Lutz, Savannah C. Ulhir, Jong-Kyung Kim

It is well documented that prehypertension or hypertension is associated with sympathetic overdrive and loss of parasympathetically mediated cardiac variability. Previous studies demonstrated that increased NO bioavailability reduced central sympathetic output. Despite the fact that grape seed extract (GSE) treatment increases the production of NO and improves endothelial function in prehypertensive males, no studies have assessed the effects of GSE on autonomic balance and autonomic function. PURPOSE: the aim of the study was to investigate the acute effect of dietary GSE supplementation on heart rate variability (HRV) and cold pressor test (CPT). METHODS: Six males were recruited in this study. …
Track And Field Athlete's Barriers Evolving With The Postponement Of The Olympics, Jessica Rabius, Marycatherine Harmon
Track And Field Athlete's Barriers Evolving With The Postponement Of The Olympics, Jessica Rabius, Marycatherine Harmon
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Due to the global Coronavirus pandemic the International Olympic Committee, IOC, rescheduled the Summer Olympics to a date beyond 2020, but not later than summer 2021, to safeguard the health of everyone involved in the Games. As the Olympics have been postponed, this could consequently affect track and field athletes. The only other time in the history of the Olympics that there has been a postponing or canceling has been in the case of a war. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to study Olympic athlete’s psychological, physiological, and physical barriers encountered due to the pandemic and subsequently …
