The Caloric Cost Of Self-Paced Exercise In Full Body Tabata, Treadmill Running Tabata, And Continuous Running, Austin Dunn, James R. Rowe Feb 2024

The Caloric Cost Of Self-Paced Exercise In Full Body Tabata, Treadmill Running Tabata, And Continuous Running, Austin Dunn, James R. Rowe

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Weight management via exercise is critical in both athletic and general populations. It is unclear what modality of exercise elicits the greatest caloric efficiency. PURPOSE: To compare the energy expenditure of three different exercise regimens when performed at a self-selected pace. METHODS: Recreationally active men (n=3) and women (n=4) performed 3 separate exercise bouts at a self-selected pace: total body Tabata (TBT), treadmill running Tabata (TRT), and continuous running (CONT) in a counterbalanced manner with at least 48h between bouts. Trials consisted of a 10-minute rest period, 5-minute warmup, 25-minute exercise bout, and a 25-minute recovery period. TBT consisted …


Effect Of Bungee Unweighting On Vo2, Heart Rate, Rpe, And Body Weight While Walking, Jaelynn Barrera, Ariel Perez, John D. Smith Feb 2024

Effect Of Bungee Unweighting On Vo2, Heart Rate, Rpe, And Body Weight While Walking, Jaelynn Barrera, Ariel Perez, John D. Smith

International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings

Unweighting systems are commonly used for rehabilitation and training purposes, and can alter energy expenditure, pain perception, and joint stress. The Lightspeed Lift is a relatively new unweighting system that uses bungees to support the user and is less expensive than more common unweighting systems. This study seeks to explore the difference in energy expenditure during walking while bearing normal body weight compared to when using the Lightspeed Lift at low, intermediate, and high unweighting. PURPOSE: To explore the effect of using a treadmill bungee support system (Lightspeed lift) on oxygen consumption (VO2), heart rate (HR), and …
