Effects Of Combined Power Band Resistance Training On Sprint Speed, Agility, Vertical Jump Height And Strength In Collegiate Soccer Players, Edgar T. Katushabe, Mark Kramer Jun 2020

Effects Of Combined Power Band Resistance Training On Sprint Speed, Agility, Vertical Jump Height And Strength In Collegiate Soccer Players, Edgar T. Katushabe, Mark Kramer

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 13(4): 950-963, 2020. Soccer involves explosive physical actions requiring strength, power, and agility for optimal performance. Such attributes may be trained several ways, of which power-band resistance training has received limited attention regarding the potential for performance improvement in soccer players. This study serves to determine the effect of power-band resistance training on 1-repetition maximal (1RM) strength, speed, standing vertical jump (SVJ) height, and agility of collegiate soccer players. Seventeen male players (age: 20.47 ± 1.85 years, height: 1.77 ± 0.08 m, mass: 70.49 ± 4.15 kg) were matched and randomly allocated into either a …


A Single Bout Of Foam Rolling Increases Flexibility Of The Hip Adductor Muscles Without Compromising Strength, Gavin Connolly, Roger L. Hammer, Joseph A. Powell, Paul L. O'Connor Jun 2020

A Single Bout Of Foam Rolling Increases Flexibility Of The Hip Adductor Muscles Without Compromising Strength, Gavin Connolly, Roger L. Hammer, Joseph A. Powell, Paul L. O'Connor

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 13(7): 938-949, 2020. Foam rolling (FR) is a method of self-myofascial release (SMR) implemented to reduce tension in underlying soft tissue, leading to increased range of motion (ROM). The hip adductor muscles of the groin are commonly less flexible and often a site for soft tissue injuries. Limited research has been done to determine the most effective flexibility exercises to increase ROM in the groin muscles prior to exercise without comprising strength. The purpose was to determine the effect of an acute bout of FR on passive groin flexibility and strength. Randomized crossover study with …

Examining Grit Like Qualities In Nfl Qbs, John Beck, Mark Debeliso Jun 2020

Examining Grit Like Qualities In Nfl Qbs, John Beck, Mark Debeliso

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 13(5): 912-923, 2020. In order to excel in the National Football League (NFL) it would seem reasonable to assume an athlete has grit which consists of the constructs of consistency of interest and perseverance of effort. Grit-like qualities such as endurance, urgency and intensity, self-confidence, need for encouragement, and self-criticality may be of particular value for the athlete playing the Quarterback (QB) position. The purpose of the study was to assess the 5 grit-like constructs of endurance, urgency and intensity, self-confidence, need for encouragement, and self-criticality among NFL QBs. The Flippen ProfileTM assessment was …


Case Report Of A Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Intervention During Aerobic Exercise In A 44-Year-Old Amateur Triathlete Male With A History Of Acute Myocardial Infarction, Maxime Caru, François Lalonde, Hugo Gravel, Chantal Daigle, Daniel Curnier Jun 2020

Case Report Of A Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Intervention During Aerobic Exercise In A 44-Year-Old Amateur Triathlete Male With A History Of Acute Myocardial Infarction, Maxime Caru, François Lalonde, Hugo Gravel, Chantal Daigle, Daniel Curnier

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 13(3): 924-937, 2020. Over the years, exercise has become increasingly important in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, AMI patients need to be closely monitored since they maintain cardiovascular disease risks, such as ventricular repolarization abnormalities in electrocardiograms during exercise and rest. A recent study showed the need to focus on the different potential mechanisms and the applicability of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) for cardiac patients engaged in exercise rehabilitation. This is the first case report that explores the effectiveness of an RIPC intervention in a 44-year-old amateur triathlete male with a history of …


The Effects Of Walking With A Load In The Heat On Physiological Responses Among Military Reserve Female Cadets, Nurul Atikah Shuhada, Marilyn L.Y. Ong, Chee Keong Chen Jun 2020

The Effects Of Walking With A Load In The Heat On Physiological Responses Among Military Reserve Female Cadets, Nurul Atikah Shuhada, Marilyn L.Y. Ong, Chee Keong Chen

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 13(2): 900-911, 2020. This study aimed to investigate the effects of walking in a hot and humid environment while wearing a combat suit with a load on physiological responses among the Malaysian Military Reserve Officer Training Unit (ROTU) female cadets. Eight healthy female ROTU cadets (age: 21.3 ± 1.0 years old; height: 156.3 ± 4.9 cm; weight: 55.6 ± 7.5 kg) participated in this randomised, crossover trial. They walked for 1 h on a treadmill at 3 km.h-1 while carrying either 8.2 kg load (WL) or without load (WOL) in a room maintained at …


Donning A Novel Lower-Limb Restrictive Compression Garment During Training Augments Muscle Power And Strength, Jaxon T. Baum, Robert P. Carter, Eric V. Neufeld, Brett A. Dolezal Jun 2020

Donning A Novel Lower-Limb Restrictive Compression Garment During Training Augments Muscle Power And Strength, Jaxon T. Baum, Robert P. Carter, Eric V. Neufeld, Brett A. Dolezal

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 13(3): 890-899, 2020. The popularity of graduated compression garments (GCG) in sport and exercise is largely driven by the abundance of anecdotal claims suggesting their efficacy. A new line of compression apparel, restrictive compression garments (RCG), integrate novel resistance technology into lower-limb compression garments designed to provide variable resistance to movement. This study aimed to investigate the effect of donning an RCG during a 4-week training program on selected performance variables. Twelve college-aged males were recruited for four weeks of lower-body strength-power resistance training. Participants were randomized 1:1 and blinded to (i) an intervention group …
