The Inflammatory Response To Different Hiit Modalities, John G. Wallace Iii, Jared Moore, E. Todd Schroeder Nov 2023

The Inflammatory Response To Different Hiit Modalities, John G. Wallace Iii, Jared Moore, E. Todd Schroeder

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines have been documented to change in response to long-duration, aerobic exercise. Little work has been performed in high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Furthermore, it has yet to be elucidated whether the modality of HIIT affects this inflammatory response. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in IL-8 and IL-10 cytokine concentrations pre-post and post-1hr following HIIT protocols using two different exercise modalities, treadmill running (TM) and stationary cycling (CE). METHODS: Eight young, healthy, recreationally active volunteers (1 female, 7 males; 25.50 ± 3.25 years) completed a 4x4 HIIT protocol (4-minute 85-95% …


Effects Of Social Jetlag On Exercise-Induced Adaptations In Skeletal Muscle Mitochondrial Content In Mice, Austin R. Cooper, Michael Dial, Nikoleta Vasileva, Greco Neblina, Elias M. Malek, Graham Mcginnis 8954626 Nov 2023

Effects Of Social Jetlag On Exercise-Induced Adaptations In Skeletal Muscle Mitochondrial Content In Mice, Austin R. Cooper, Michael Dial, Nikoleta Vasileva, Greco Neblina, Elias M. Malek, Graham Mcginnis 8954626

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Social jetlag (SJL) occurs when the sleep/wake schedule differs on work days (weekdays) and free days (weekends). Previous studies have shown that individuals with SJL have lower physical fitness and are prone to obesity. While exercise reverses this phenotype (i.e. - via increasing skeletal muscle mitochondrial content), the effects of social jetlag on exercise training adaptations have yet to be shown. PURPOSE: To determine how social jetlag impacts skeletal muscle adaptations to exercise training in mice. METHODS: Male C57BL/6J mice aged 10-weeks (n=40) were assigned to four groups, with experimental conditions persisting for 6-weeks; control sedentary (C-SED), control with voluntary …


C-Reactive Protein Changes Following Treadmill And Cycling High-Intensity Interval Training, Juliet Moore, George Salem Nov 2023

C-Reactive Protein Changes Following Treadmill And Cycling High-Intensity Interval Training, Juliet Moore, George Salem

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

ABSTRACT: The acute inflammatory response to exercise has been well-studied in long duration activities such as marathons and triathlons; however, little work has been done investigating this response in high-intensity interval training (HIIT), which is characterized by intermittent bouts of higher and lower intensity cycles. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in C-reactive protein (CRP) immediately following and 1-hour post HIIT protocols using two different exercise modalities, treadmill running and stationary cycling. METHODS: Eight young, healthy, recreationally active volunteers (1 female, 7 males; 25.50 ± 3.25 years) completed a 4x4 HIIT protocol …


Minimal Differences Between Males And Females In Exercise-Induced Increase Of Circulating T Cells Subsets In Older Adults, Seth Rinehart, Kristofer Jennings, Melissa Markofski Feb 2023

Minimal Differences Between Males And Females In Exercise-Induced Increase Of Circulating T Cells Subsets In Older Adults, Seth Rinehart, Kristofer Jennings, Melissa Markofski

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

PURPOSE: To examine potential differences between older adult males and females’ acute post-exercise circulating T cell response. METHODS: Participants were healthy older adults with an average age of 63.0 ± 1.0 years (n= 24, females = 70.8%) and BMI of 24.7 ± 0.7 kg∙m-2. All females were post-menopausal. A single bout of cardiorespiratory exercise at ~70% heart rate reserve and a separate bout of eight resistance exercises at ~70% 1 repetition maximum were conducted at least one week apart. T cell count changes were determined via blood sample at rest and immediately post-exercise for each bout. Multi-color …
