However, there is limited understanding of how differing body weight percentages influence gait and force production. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between force and gait parameters at different body weight percentages on a LBPPT. Twenty-seven healthy participants completed a series of walking, jogging, and running trials at three different body weight conditions: 100%, 90%, and 75%. Gait parameters, including cadence, stride length, stance time, and ground reaction force, were measured using the Digitsole Pro foot insoles and analyzed across the different conditions. Repeated measures ANOVA and pairwise comparisons were used to examine the effects of body weight percentage on the gait parameters. The results showed significant effects of BW on cadence, stride length, stance time, and impact force during running condition (p < 0.001). Jogging condition was significantly different across all % BW for all variables except ground reaction force (GRF). For walking, the only significant differences presented were for stride length on the right limb between 100% and 90% BW (p = 0.004) and 100% and 75% BW (p = 0.04) and time in stance on the left and right (p < 0.05). Pairwise comparisons revealed significant differences between the 100%, 90%, and 75% BW conditions for most gait parameters during jogging and running. These findings suggest that lower body weight percentages substantially influence gait mechanics and force production, especially as speed increases.</p>","PeriodicalId":14171,"journal":{"name":"International journal of exercise science","volume":"18 7","pages":"239-250"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11881985/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143567109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Urinary levels of leptin acutely increased after the first ST session, and after the last ST session. Chronic changes in the leptin levels were also found when comparing the values before the last ST and before the first ST session.

Participants were recreationally trained at baseline. Over a 16-week period, both groups completed assessments of strength and endurance, including deadlift, push-ups, and a two-mile run. The results indicated no significant difference in overall fitness improvements between the two groups, with both showing meaningful progress in strength and endurance measures. However, adherence rates were notably lower in the flexible group as the study progressed, potentially due to decision fatigue. Statistical significance was set at ρ ≤ 0.05, with main effects of time showing significant improvement in fitness scores across all groups. The findings suggest that while flexible programming offers similar benefits to traditional fixed programs, it may require strategies to maintain adherence over longer periods.

Therefore, we tested whether wearing compressive pantyhose (CP) during the Ballet-specific aerobic fitness test (BAFT) would influence performance, recovery, physiological, and perceptual indicators. Additionally, this pilot study tested the feasibility of the research procedures and informed adjustments for the main study. Nine young classical ballerinas attended two sessions on different days: a) wearing CP (pressure of 20-30 mmHg) or b) wearing a placebo pantyhose ([PLA] no compression, containing an illusory effect) during the BAFT. We assessed heart rate (HR) and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) during the BAFT, perceived recovery (PRS), lower-limb delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) at Pre and 24 h Post, and standing heel-rise test performance at Pre, 30 min, and 24 h Post. No variables differed (p>0.05) between CP and PLA (e.g., HR mean over 5 BAFT phases: 178±14 bpm vs. 179±17 bpm, p=0.63; RPE 30 min post: 9.1±0.8 vs. 9.1±0.8 arbitrary units, p=0.94). However, wearing CP promoted attenuation in acute fatigue, while PLA showed a performance decrement (p<0.05) 30 min Post in the standing heel-rise test: CP 30.2±6.0 to 22.8±7.5 repetitions and PLA 36.2±11.7 to 22.9±6.3 repetitions.

While stretching aids recovery, its effects on autonomic balance are inconsistent. Yoga's combination of postures, breathing, and relaxation may further activate the parasympathetic system, making it a promising tool for sports recovery. This study employed a crossover design to examine the effects of yoga and stretching on post 30-min session of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) recovery in male athletes. Twenty athletes of Mae Fah Luang University (Age 20.95±0.99 years old, VO2max 42.53±4.79 ml/kg/min) were given recovery methods, 15-min stretching and 15-min yoga following HIIT. Heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and heart rate variability were evaluated immediately after HIIT, 5-min, 10- min, 15-min of the recovery period, and at 24-hour after recovery. A Two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed to examine the interaction effects between different methods and time of recovery. A significance level of 0.05 indicated a statistically significant difference. The findings indicated a statistically significant interaction between the group and time of heart rate variability and respiratory rate (p<0.05, effect size [ES] medium). Post-hoc analysis indicated that performing yoga showed a significantly lower respiratory rate at 5-min, 10-min, and 15-min compared to stretching (p<0.05, ES large). Yoga demonstrated a noteworthy enhancement in heart rate variability during the 5-min and 10-min recovery periods in comparison to stretching. In summary, this study provides empirical evidence supporting the efficacy of yoga as a post-exercise recovery strategy following high-intensity interval training. The role of breathing, rhythmic muscle contractions, and deep relaxation in yoga appears to facilitate the recovery phase more effectively than stretching alone. This suggests incorporating yoga as an active recovery regimen.</p>","PeriodicalId":14171,"journal":{"name":"International journal of exercise science","volume":"18 6","pages":"79-91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11798559/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143364455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One program that has gained considerable popularity is the 12-3-30 treadmill workout (12-3-30), which involves walking at a 12% grade at 3 mph for 30 minutes. Despite widespread claims about its effectiveness in burning fat and calories, there is a lack of peer-reviewed scientific studies evaluating these claims. The present study investigated metabolic responses to 12-3-30 compared to self-paced treadmill running, with both sessions matched for total energy expenditure. Sixteen participants (7 female, 9 male) completed both sessions in a controlled laboratory setting, where metabolic data were collected using a metabolic analyzer. The measures recorded were completion time, total energy expenditure, energy expenditure rate, and substrate utilization (percentage of carbohydrate [%CHO] and fat [%FAT]). The results showed that, when matched for total energy expenditure, 12-3-30 had a significantly longer completion time, lower energy expenditure rate, higher %FAT, and lower %CHO than self-paced running. While 12-3-30 may be less time efficient than self-paced running for expending energy, it may be more advantageous for individuals aiming to increase fat utilization.
