It seems that by now most everyone, except Patriot and Falcon fans, should have fully recovered from the Super Bowl. As someone who has seen all fifty-one of these championship games, this one certainly ranks among the most exciting, if not the best played game.

Impact Of Acute Dietary Manipulations On Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Estimates Of Visceral Adipose Tissue, Jeffrey S. Forsse, Grant M. Tinsley, Flor E. Morales Marroquín, Peter W. Grandjean Feb 2017

Impact Of Acute Dietary Manipulations On Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Estimates Of Visceral Adipose Tissue, Jeffrey S. Forsse, Grant M. Tinsley, Flor E. Morales Marroquín, Peter W. Grandjean

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is viewed as a superior method of body composition assessment, but whole-body DXA scans are impacted by variation in pre-assessment activities, such as eating and drinking. DXA software now allows for estimation of visceral adipose tissue (VAT), which has been implicated in a number of diseases. It is unknown to what extent food and fluid intake affect VAT estimates. PURPOSE: determine the effects of acute high-carbohydrate (HC) and very low-carbohydrate (VLC) diets on DXA estimates of VAT. METHODS: Male and female adults completed two one-day dietary conditions in random order: a VLC diet (1 – …


Reliability And Relationships Between Rectus Femoris Muscle Size And Hip Flexion Maximal And Explosive Strength, Megan R. Cruz, Jose G. Pineda, Ty B. Palmer Feb 2017

Reliability And Relationships Between Rectus Femoris Muscle Size And Hip Flexion Maximal And Explosive Strength, Megan R. Cruz, Jose G. Pineda, Ty B. Palmer

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Ultrasound assessments of muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) are commonly used to evaluate muscle size in young adults. It has been hypothesized that the CSA of the rectus femoris (RF) may be an important contributor to hip flexion maximal and explosive strength capacities. However, limited data exist regarding the reliability of RF CSA and how it relates to maximal and explosive strength of the hip flexors in young adults. PURPOSE: To examine the reliability of RF CSA and its relationships with hip flexion isometric maximal and explosive strength. METHODS: Nineteen young, healthy females (age = 21±2 years; mass = …


Effects Of Pre-Workout Supplements On Maximal Concentric And Eccentric Force Production During Lower Body Resistance Exercise, Austin Martin, Matt Hamm, Jose G. Pineda, Victor Uribe, Amy Hurtado, Austin Cross, Ty B. Palmer, Grant M. Tinsley Feb 2017

Effects Of Pre-Workout Supplements On Maximal Concentric And Eccentric Force Production During Lower Body Resistance Exercise, Austin Martin, Matt Hamm, Jose G. Pineda, Victor Uribe, Amy Hurtado, Austin Cross, Ty B. Palmer, Grant M. Tinsley

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Due to claims of increased sport performance and decreased fatigue, “pre-workouts” are some of the most popular dietary supplements being sold today. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine if two commercially available pre-workout supplements are effective at increasing peak concentric and eccentric force production during lower-body resistance exercise on a mechanized squat device.

METHODS: Three conditions were implemented: caffeinated pre-workout (C; Pre-Jym), non-caffeinated pre-workout (NC; Carbon Prep), and placebo (P). Participants served as their own control in a counterbalanced fashion, and the study was double blind (i.e. the participants and researchers were blind to the supplement …


Effects Of Multi-Ingredient Pre-Workout Supplements On Repetitions-In-Reserve And Subjective Measures Of Energy, Fatigue, And Focus During Lower-Body Resistance Exercise, Amy Hurtado, Matthew Hamm, Jose G. Pineda, Austin Martin, Austin Cross, Victor Uribe, Ty B. Palmer, Grant Tinsley Feb 2017

Effects Of Multi-Ingredient Pre-Workout Supplements On Repetitions-In-Reserve And Subjective Measures Of Energy, Fatigue, And Focus During Lower-Body Resistance Exercise, Amy Hurtado, Matthew Hamm, Jose G. Pineda, Austin Martin, Austin Cross, Victor Uribe, Ty B. Palmer, Grant Tinsley

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Approximately 50% of the U.S. population regularly consumes dietary supplements to enhance their health and well-being. One popular category of dietary supplements is called “pre-workout” supplements, which claims to increase subjective feelings of energy and exercise performance. PURPOSE: The purpose of the study was to examine whether two commercially available pre-workout supplements could beneficially modify resistance exercise-specific perceived exertion and subjective measures of energy, focus, and fatigue during an acute bout of lower-body resistance exercise. METHODS: This was a counterbalanced, double blind, placebo-controlled trial. Resistance-trained (i.e. 2+ hours per week of weight training over the past 6 months) females and …


Effects Of Practical Durations Of Stretching On Hamstrings Range Of Motion And Strength, Jose G. Pineda, Megan R. Cruz, Ty B. Palmer Feb 2017

Effects Of Practical Durations Of Stretching On Hamstrings Range Of Motion And Strength, Jose G. Pineda, Megan R. Cruz, Ty B. Palmer

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

ABSTRACT

Stretching is often performed prior to exercise with the intent to improve range of motion (ROM) and athletic performance. However, stretching-induced strength loss has been extensively reported and is believed to be influenced by several factors, including the time under stretch. The majority of previous studies showing stretching-induced strength declines have used stretching routines for durations (8-30 min) considerably longer than those commonly applied in the field. Fewer studies have examined the effects of shorter, more practical durations (≤2 min) of stretching on ROM and muscle strength. PURPOSE: To examine the acute effects of practical stretching durations on …


Sports Leaders, Sensemaking, And Self-Preservation: Uncovering The Real Crisis In Sport, Daryl L. Jones Feb 2017

Sports Leaders, Sensemaking, And Self-Preservation: Uncovering The Real Crisis In Sport, Daryl L. Jones

Student Scholarship

The sports industry often experiences critical, high-risk situations related to crisis management decisions. Devastating consequences often occur because of the methods used by sports leaders in processing information associated with crisis. As chaotic as these crisis-based events may be; often times the true antecedents of crisis result from practices and processes that exist within, not outside of, sports organizations. Despite the global economic impact and increasing significance of sports, there is a shortage of empirical research to help us understand key influences on industry leaders, specifically related to times of crisis. The factors that impact the formation of perspectives and …

Basic Communication Course Students’ Perceptions Of The Purpose And Their Role In The Peer Feedback Process, Angela M. Hosek, Stevie Munz, Keith C. Bistodeau, Zamzam Jama, Andrew Frisbie, Sonia Rains Ivancic Feb 2017

Basic Communication Course Students’ Perceptions Of The Purpose And Their Role In The Peer Feedback Process, Angela M. Hosek, Stevie Munz, Keith C. Bistodeau, Zamzam Jama, Andrew Frisbie, Sonia Rains Ivancic

Basic Communication Course Annual

Students enrolled in the basic communication course often engage in peer feedback workshops to enhance presentational speaking competence. As such, peer feedback workshops in the basic communication course provide an opportunity for students to provide and receive feedback on speech form, structure, and delivery (Broeckelman-Post & Hosek, 2014). The present study qualitatively examined data from 110 students enrolled in a basic communication course to determine their perceptions of the peer feedback process and what role(s), if any, they believed they had in the peer feedback process. Our thematic analysis revealed that students’ perceive peer feedback as a form of agency, …

Dynamic Pricing In Major League Baseball Tickets: Issues And Challenges, John T. Drea, Andrew Nahlik Feb 2017

Dynamic Pricing In Major League Baseball Tickets: Issues And Challenges, John T. Drea, Andrew Nahlik

Atlantic Marketing Journal

With its origins in the airline industry, dynamic pricing has recently been extended to the area of Major League Baseball tickets in both the primary and secondary markets. The present study examines similarities in the application of dynamic pricing in the airline and MLB industries, as well as the key differences, which include the interactive effects of competitors in the airline industries and the presence of a secondary ticket market for MLB tickets. The “zone of reasonableness” concept used in freight pricing provides a useful framework for understanding the self-imposed upper and lower price limits for MLB primary market ticket …
