Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of active recovery, electrical stimulation, cupping therapy, and sequential compression for decreasing blood lactate in collegiate pitchers after pitching. Methods: 20 healthy collegiate baseball pitchers consented to participate in this study as a convenience sample (age 21.6 ± 1.90 years; height 175.61 ± 21.41 cm; mass 80.33 ± 8.07 kg). A total of 17 participants completed the study. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of the four interventions and rotated between interventions in one-week increments. The interventions used were active recovery, electrical stimulation, cupping therapy, and sequential compression. The …

Heart rate variability (HRV) is a non-invasive method used to monitor physiological stress via assessment of sympathetic and parasympathetic regulations and can indicate an individual’s recovery and readiness to exercise. Evidence suggests dehydration negatively impacts HRV; however, the influence of hydration status on HRV following supramaximal resistance exercise (RE) is unknown. PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of hydration status on HRV indices following supramaximal intensity RE. METHODS: 14 recreationally resistance-trained men (age, 21 ± 2 years; height, 176.25 ± 5.84 cm; weight, 81.31 ± 12.77 kg) participated in this study. In a randomized, counterbalanced order, participants performed a supramaximal intensity …


Habitual Fluid Intake Does Not Affect Sleep Parameters In Young Women., Ruben E. Moya, Hui-Ying Luk, Casey Appell, Alan Ky, Kelly B. Elliott, Cherish Dunlap, Nigel Jiwan, Yasuki Sekiguchi Feb 2024

Habitual Fluid Intake Does Not Affect Sleep Parameters In Young Women., Ruben E. Moya, Hui-Ying Luk, Casey Appell, Alan Ky, Kelly B. Elliott, Cherish Dunlap, Nigel Jiwan, Yasuki Sekiguchi

Sleep is essential for optimal physical performance, cognitive function, recovery, and overall health. Similarly, hydration status has been shown to influence physical and cognitive functions. Dehydration can lead to impaired cognition and possibly impaired sleep. However, the effect of habitual total water intake (TWI) on sleep and recovery measures have not been examined. PURPOSE: To examine the effect of TWI on sleep and recovery measures in young women. METHODS: Twenty-two young women (age: 22.8±4.6 yrs; body mass: 60.0±9.5 kg; height: 164.6±6.1 cm) collected fluid intake and food consumption information across a 5 day period, and average TWI was calculated based …
