Theses and Dissertations
Taste is one of the crucial factors that contributes to shaping eating behaviors and is also one of the leading reasons that affects our preferences to like or dislike some foods that mainly have a bitter taste. Variation in bitter phenotype (tasters and non-tasters) could influence diet quality and in turn body weight, which overall influenced health outcomes. The objective of this study was to identify whether bitter taste phenotype status influences anthropometric measurements, body fat percentage, and eating behaviors (liking and intake) in female college students. In this cross-sectional study (n = 86), female college students aged 18 to …
Body Mass Index Superior To Body Adiposity Index In Predicting Adiposity In Male Collegiate Athletes, Isaiah Mews, Payton Price, Ruthie Larson, Sofia Harman, Annika Grams, Anthony Acevedo, Zachary Ziegler
Body Mass Index Superior To Body Adiposity Index In Predicting Adiposity In Male Collegiate Athletes, Isaiah Mews, Payton Price, Ruthie Larson, Sofia Harman, Annika Grams, Anthony Acevedo, Zachary Ziegler
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
BMI is moderately correlated with %Fat and has been suggested to be inadequate at predicting overfat status in male collegiate athletes.The Body Adiposity Index (BAI) is an alternative anthropometric measurement suggested to be superior to BMI at predicting adiposity but has not been well assessed within different collegiate sports. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine if BAI is superior to BMI in predicting %Fat in male collegiate athletes. METHODS: Collegiate male rugby and baseball players were invited into the laboratory for measurements of height, weight, and %Fat via BOD POD. BAI was calculated as Hip …
A Comparison Of Bioimpedance Analysis Vs. Dual X-Ray Absorptiometry For Body Composition Assessment In Postpartum Women And Non-Postpartum Controls, Valene Garr Barry, Samantha L Martin, Paula Chandler-Laney, Ebony B Carter, Camille S Worthington

Postpartum fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM) may be informative predictors of future disease risk among women; hence, there is growing use of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to quantify FFM and FM among postpartum women due to the quick, non-invasive, and inexpensive nature of BIA. Despite this, very few studies have examined BIA's performance, and it remains unclear as to whether specific BIA equations are needed for postpartum women. To explore these questions, we measured total body FFM and FM with a multi-frequency, segmental BIA, and dual-X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in (1) women at one and four months postpartum (

In mammals, trait variation is often reported to be greater among males than females. However, to date, mainly only morphological traits have been studied. Energy expenditure represents the metabolic costs of multiple physical, physiological, and behavioral traits. Energy expenditure could exhibit particularly high greater male variation through a cumulative effect if those traits mostly exhibit greater male variation, or a lack of greater male variation if many of them do not. Sex differences in energy expenditure variation have been little explored. We analyzed a large database on energy expenditure in adult humans (1494 males and 3108 females) to investigate whether …

Whey Versus Casein Supplementation In Physically Active, Healthy Individuals, Nyles V. Rife, Tobin Silver, Jose Antonio, Corey Peacock
Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice
Purpose: Research shows the benefits of whey isolate protein powder and casein protein powder supplementation in regard to body composition and resting metabolic rate; however, minimal research exists comparing the effectiveness of whey to casein supplementation. Methods: Eighteen (18) physically trained, healthy individuals (23±3.1 yrs.; 171.7cm; 12 males; 6 females) completed a randomized two condition [Combat 100% Isolate (Whey) versus Combat 100% (Casein)] by two time point [Pre-, Post-] intervention. The intervention consisted of subjects supplementing on either whey or casein in conjunction with resistance training over an 8-week period. Pre and post testing included % body fat …

While traditional yoga programs focus on static stretching and core stability, Essentrics yoga relies more heavily on full-body stretch and strengthening regiments coupled with dynamic movements such as ceiling reaches, side-to-side bends, lunges, and side leg lifts. Through the incorporation of more dynamic movements, Essentrics yoga is thought to elicit greater improvements in overall body composition, flexibility, and balance. PURPOSE: To examine the benefits of a 6-weeks long Essentrics (dynamic) program compared to standard (static) Yoga on body composition, flexibility, and balance. METHODS: Thirty-one participants (24 females and 7 males, age = 20.4 ± 0.2yrs, and BMI = 22.58 ± …
