The Effects Of Traditional Versus Ability-Based Physical Training On The Health And Fitness Of Custody Assistant Recruits, Karly Rodas, Joseph Dulla, Matthew R. Moreno, Ashley Bloodgood, Megan Mcguire, Robin (Rob) Marc Orr, J. Jay Dawes, Robert G. Lockie

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 15(3): 1641-1660, 2022. This study investigated traditional training (TT) versus ability-based training (ABT) in custody assistant recruits. Retrospective analysis was conducted on two recruit classes who completed an 8-week academy. The TT group (18 males, 13 females) followed a physical training model where recruits completed the same exercises with the same intensity; the ABT group (17 males, 12 females) had exercises tailored towards their ability. Pre- and post-academy, recruits were assessed in: body mass; body fat percentage (BF%); resting heart rate (RHR); blood pressure (BP); waist circumference (WC); waist-to-hip ratio (WHR); grip strength; push-ups; sit-ups; …


Longitudinal Changes In Fat And Lean Mass: Comparisons Between 3d-Infrared And Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Scans In Athletes, Matthew Vansumeren, Spencer Weber, Justin Civelek, Jordan Sabourin, Valerie Smith-Hale, Tamara Hew-Butler Dec 2022

Longitudinal Changes In Fat And Lean Mass: Comparisons Between 3d-Infrared And Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Scans In Athletes, Matthew Vansumeren, Spencer Weber, Justin Civelek, Jordan Sabourin, Valerie Smith-Hale, Tamara Hew-Butler

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 15(4): 1587-1599, 2022. The low cost and portability of three-dimensional (3D) infrared body scanners make them an attractive tool for body composition measurement in athletes. The main purpose of this study was to compare total body fat percentage (BF%) and total lean mass (LM in kg), in a cohort of collegiate athletes, using a 3D infrared body scanner versus a dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scanner. Phase I was a pre-season cross-sectional analysis of 61 (39 male) athletes while Phase II was a longitudinal subset analysis of 38 (27 male) student-athletes who returned to the …


Effects Of Two Different Exercise Training Programs Periodization On Anthropometric And Functional Parameters In People Living With Hiv: A Randomized Clinical Trial, Weverton Fonseca Soares, Vitor Lopes Soares, Hugo Ribeiro Zanetti, Fernando Freitas Neves, Mário Leon Silva-Vergara, Edmar Lacerda Mendes May 2022

Effects Of Two Different Exercise Training Programs Periodization On Anthropometric And Functional Parameters In People Living With Hiv: A Randomized Clinical Trial, Weverton Fonseca Soares, Vitor Lopes Soares, Hugo Ribeiro Zanetti, Fernando Freitas Neves, Mário Leon Silva-Vergara, Edmar Lacerda Mendes

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 15(3): 733-746, 2022. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two different exercise training programs periodization on anthropometric and functional parameters in people living with HIV (PLHIV). This was a randomized clinical trial that involved participants (n = 31) living with HIV aged over 18 years and undergoing antiretroviral therapy which were randomized to periodized exercise training (PET; n = 13), non-periodized exercise training (NPET; n = 13), or control group (CON; n = 15). The PET and NPET groups performed 12 weeks of combined training while the CON group …
