A075: Endurance Exercise Downregulates Sparc To Improve Age-Related Myocardial Fibrosis In High-Fat Flies, Wenqing Huang, Lan Zheng

International Journal of Physical Activity and Health

Myocardial fibrosis is an important pathological feature of cardiovascular aging, and a high-fat diet (HFD) can accelerate its progression, while SPARC, a remodeling-related protein, may mediate this mechanism. Endurance exercise has been shown to have cardioprotective effects, but its regulatory mechanism on age-related myocardial fibrosis induced by a high-fat diet is still unclear. This study aims to explore whether endurance exercise improves the cardiac fibrosis phenotype in high-fat-fed fruit flies by downregulating SPARC expression and elucidates its underlying molecular mechanisms. Method: Wild-type female fruit flies (n=400) within 12 hours of feathering were selected and randomly divided into four groups (n=100 …

A093: Blood Flow Restriction With Calf-Raise Exercises On Muscle Strength, Muscle Endurance, And Jump Performance, Yuantai Li, Wenxuan Fan, Haotian Zhong, Zhaohua Huang, Haonan Wang, Xingbing Yue, Lijuan Wang

International Journal of Physical Activity and Health

Blood flow restriction training (BFRT) has been increasingly utilized in athletic training. Recent studies have demonstrated that blood flow restriction training (BFRT) combined with lower-limb exercises and knee-specific exercises can improve muscle strength, muscle endurance, and lower-limb jump performance. However, no research has explored the effects of BFR combined with ankle-specific exercises on improving these functional outcomes. Therefore, we conducted a randomized controlled trial to compare the effects of BFRT and heavy-slow resistance training (HSRT) on muscle strength, endurance, and jump performance. Method: A total of 24 participants were recruited and randomized to receive either BFRT or HSRT for eight …

A097: Intelligent Exercise Prescription Facilitates The Development Path Of Sports For Obese Populations, Qiqi Huang Jan 2026

A097: Intelligent Exercise Prescription Facilitates The Development Path Of Sports For Obese Populations, Qiqi Huang

International Journal of Physical Activity and Health

The global population of individuals is expanding rapidly. By 2024, the obesity rate among adults in China is expected to surge to 16.4%, while globally, over 4 billion people are facing issues of overweight or obesity. Traditional exercise prescriptions suffer from the limitations of "generalized guidance" and "static prescriptions." Studies have shown that due to the neglect of individual metabolic differences, only 20% of individuals can maintain clinically significant weight loss for more than 12 months, and merely 10-25% patients can sustain a weight loss of ≥10% in the long term. The intelligent technology-driven exercise intervention system is reshaping the …

A100: Linking Classroom Management With Individual Interest And Class Behavior In Physical Education, Yishun Wang, Bo Shen Jan 2026

A100: Linking Classroom Management With Individual Interest And Class Behavior In Physical Education, Yishun Wang, Bo Shen

International Journal of Physical Activity and Health

Classroom management that balances high levels of demandingness and responsiveness creates an interesting learning environment in physical education. From the perspective of self-determination theory, demandingness may initiate teacher-centered behavioral regulation, potentially constraining students' autonomy, while responsiveness can enhance students’ sense of care and support. Understanding the distinct and combined effects of these two seemingly “contradictory” factors on student outcomes is essential. This study aimed to investigate (1) how students’ perceptions of teacher behavioral control (reflecting demandingness) and teacher care (reflecting responsiveness) influence their individual interest in physical education, class engagement, and misbehavior, and (2) how different combinations of perceived teacher …
