Time Course Toward Baseline Of Hand-To-Foot Bia Measures Following An Acute Bout Of Aerobic Exercise, Brett S. Nickerson
Time Course Toward Baseline Of Hand-To-Foot Bia Measures Following An Acute Bout Of Aerobic Exercise, Brett S. Nickerson
International Journal of Exercise Science
International Journal of Exercise Science 11(2): 640-647, 2018. The purpose of this study was to determine the time course of BIA-derived body fat percentage (BF%) and total body water (TBW) values in the 1 h following a moderate bout (60% heart rate reserve [HRR]) of steady state aerobic exercise in apparently healthy men. College-aged adult males (n=15) had their BF% and TBW estimated via BIA before (PRE), immediately (IP), 10 min (10P), 20 min (20P), 30 min (30P), 40 min (40P), 50 min (50P), and 60 min (60P) post a 30 min bout of moderate treadmill exercise. Exercise intensity was …

The Effect Of The Menstrual Cycle On The Reliability Of Contact-Electrode Bioelectrical Impedance Analyzers, Emily A. Cumberledge, Cassandra Myers, Jennifer J. Venditti, Curt B. Dixon, Joseph L. Andreacci
International Journal of Exercise Science
International Journal of Exercise Science 11(4): 625-632, 2018. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a noninvasive and relatively inexpensive method of assessing body composition. Manufacturers of BIA technology recommend to avoid testing women when they perceive to be retaining water during the menstrual cycle. The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the effect of the menstrual cycle on body composition determined by contact-electrode BIA analyzers. Forty-three college-aged women volunteered to participate in this study (age=21.2 ± 1.1 years; body mass index = 24.0 ± 3.7 kg/m2). Subjects had their body composition assessed using four different contact-electrode BIA …
