Effects Of Flexibility And Balance On Driving Distance And Club Head Speed In Collegiate Golfers, Kelsey J. Marshall

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 10(7): 954-963, 2017. Good balance, flexibility, and strength are all required to maintain a steady stance during the kinematic chain to produce successful golf shots.

Speed- And Circuit-Based High-Intensity Interval Training On Recovery Oxygen Consumption, Lindsay N. Schleppenbach, Andreas B. Ezer, Sarah A. Gronemus, Katelyn R. Widenski, Saori Braun, Jeffery Janot

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 10(7): 942-953, 2017.

Currently, there is no single research study that examines the differences in Recovery Oxygen Consumption (ROC) resulting from high-intensity interval training (HIIT) modalities. The purpose of this study is to review the impact of circuit training (CT) and speed interval training (SIT), on ROC in both …
