The Role Of Exogenous Ketones On Various Aspects Of Exercise Performance, Manuel D. Quinones
The Role Of Exogenous Ketones On Various Aspects Of Exercise Performance, Manuel D. Quinones
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Routinely, athletes and coaches pursue novel nutritional strategies in an attempt to support exercise training techniques and/or enhance athletic performance. Body carbohydrate (CHO) stores are limited so strategies to enhance fat use and spare CHO during exercise and thus, attenuate the onset of fatigue are commonplace. It has been suggested that oral exogenous ketone administration is ergogenic not only by altering exercise metabolism (sparing CHO), but also by improving exercise cognitive function as well as enhancing post-exercise glycogen resynthesis. However, data supporting these claims are limited and contradictory. Therefore, the purpose of this dissertation was to explore the role of …
Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome: Evaluating Postoperative Rehabilitation Progress And Return To Sport Readiness, Trevor A. Day
Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome: Evaluating Postoperative Rehabilitation Progress And Return To Sport Readiness, Trevor A. Day
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a common cause of non-arthritic hip pain and reduced physical activity in active young adults. It is defined as a motion-related disorder of the hip with a triad of symptoms, clinical signs, and imaging findings that represents symptomatic premature contact between the proximal femur and the acetabulum. There are two anatomical morphologies that can cause FAIS, cam, and pincer, and is a challenging clinical pathology. Patients typically undergo hip arthroscopy to repair damage to the joint and recess the bone causing the impingement. These procedures can result in positive outcomes for the patient, like reduced …

The Influence Of The Social Determinants Of Health On Para-Sports Involvement Throughout The Caribbean And Americas, Laura Misener
Undergraduate Student Research Internships Conference
As the number of individuals with a disability grows worldwide, the Paralympic Games and para-sports have seen a growth in participation (WHO, 2011). However, international sporting competitions including the Paralympic Games remain dominated by developed countries (Andreff, 2001). In the last Paralympic Games, the USA, Canada, and Brazil made up nearly 70% of participants from the North and South American region with 17 of the 28 committees sending five or less participants (Maleske & Sant, 2020). The present study investigates the social and cultural determinants in the Caribbean and Americas of para-sport participation in the region and their relation to …
Biomechanical Differences Between Recreational And Collegiate Runners, Ryan J. Evans
Biomechanical Differences Between Recreational And Collegiate Runners, Ryan J. Evans
Undergraduate Student Research Internships Conference
Using a pre-existing sample and data, various forces and limb positions were analyzed to determine movement pattern differences between recreational and collegiate level runners that influence injury and performance factors.
The Effect Of Sprint Interval Training And Intermittent Fasting On Cognitive Function, Dana Taghaddos
The Effect Of Sprint Interval Training And Intermittent Fasting On Cognitive Function, Dana Taghaddos
Undergraduate Student Research Internships Conference
This study will explore how a combination of a time-restricted eating (TRE) strategy and a sprint interval training (SIT) exercise program will affect cognitive function. Both TRE and SIT are easily implemented lifestyle habits that have been shown to present significant brain challenges. Participants will be randomized into 3 groups: either SIT + TRE (Group 1), SIT alone (Group 2), or TRE alone (Group 3). We will assess acute effects (single day of TRE, followed by a single session of SIT the next day), and the effects over a 6 week period. The SIT protocol consists of four 30 second …
Functional Performance Testing In Ice Hockey: The Role Of The Single Leg, Medial Countermovement Jump, Anthony S. Donskov
Functional Performance Testing In Ice Hockey: The Role Of The Single Leg, Medial Countermovement Jump, Anthony S. Donskov
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Due to the physical nature of the game, injuries are common in ice hockey. Injury rates have been difficult to interpret due to the inconsistencies in the definitions of injury and athlete exposure. Consensus statements on injury definitions have been developed for sports such as soccer and rugby but have not been established in ice hockey. Furthermore, many different off-ice tests are performed, but a hockey-specific performance test has not been promoted. Accordingly, the objective for this thesis was to investigate injury rates, injury definition, athlete exposure and injury type in men’s ice hockey, and providing information on a practical …
Effects Of Branched-Chain Amino Acid Supplementation On Exercise Induced Muscle Damage And Delayed Onset Of Muscle Soreness After A Bout Of Eccentric Exercise, Crystal Lee
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) have the potential to reduce both exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) and delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS) after a bout of eccentric contractions (ECC). The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of BCAA supplementation for 12 days prior to and for an additional 7 days following a bout of ECC on EIMD and DOMS. Sixteen women with no prior experience with strength training were assigned randomly to a BCAA group or a placebo group. Only four participants completed the trial due to COVID-19 (another completed 72h of recovery and was included). Participants supplemented …
