Exercise Intensity And Performance Aspects Of Snow Biking Through The Use Of A Fat Bike, Kevin C. Phillips Aug 2015

Exercise Intensity And Performance Aspects Of Snow Biking Through The Use Of A Fat Bike, Kevin C. Phillips

All NMU Master's Theses

The aim of this study was to quantify, describe, and compare the exercise intensity and performance aspects of riding a fat bike, in a time trial (TT) format, on a natural earthen trail (ET) vs. on a groomed snow trail (ST). Eleven subjects, nine males and two females, participated in this two part study. Heart rate (HR) was used to quantify exercise intensity, examining average heart rate (HRavg), and peak heart rate (HRpeak). In addition, a global positioning system (GPS) watch was used to assess time to complete the trail, average speed (speedavg), and …

The Effects Of High Intensity Intermittent Exercise In Normobaric Hypoxia On Aerobic Capacity And Body Composition In Overweight And Obese Sedentary Adults, Max W. Adolphs May 2015

The Effects Of High Intensity Intermittent Exercise In Normobaric Hypoxia On Aerobic Capacity And Body Composition In Overweight And Obese Sedentary Adults, Max W. Adolphs

All NMU Master's Theses

The purpose of this study was to examine if high intensity intermittent exercise (HIIE) combined with normobaric hypoxia had a multiplicative effect on body composition, maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max), and resting energy expenditure (REE) in overweight and obese sedentary adults. Twelve participates were recruited for the study. Participants were randomly assigned to either a hypoxic training (HT) group equivalent to 3,048 m (FIO2 = 14.5%) or a normoxic training (NT) group equivalent to 0 m (FIO2 = 20.9%) three times a week for six weeks in a normobaric hypoxic chamber. HIIE consisted …
