The architectural and morphological adaptations of the hamstrings in response to training
33 with different exercises have not been explored. PURPOSE: To evaluate changes in biceps
34 femoris long head (BFLH) fascicle length and hamstring muscle size following 10-weeks of
35 Nordic hamstring exercise (NHE) or hip extension (HE) training. METHODS: Thirty
36 recreationally active male athletes (age, 22.0 ± 3.6 years, height, 180.4 ± 7 cm, weight, 80.8 ±
37 11.1 kg) were allocated to one of three groups: 1) HE training (n=10), NHE training (n=10),
38 or no training (CON) (n=10). BFLH fascicle length was assessed before, during (Week 5) and
39 after the intervention with 2D-ultrasound. Hamstring muscle size was determined before and
40 after training via magnetic resonance imaging.

Results from the present study quantify the effects of altering either the intensity of the
work or the recovery interval when performing interval sessions consisting of 60s of work and
60s of recovery for multiple repetitions. The information provided may aid those interested in
designing interval training sessions by providing ranges of values that could be expected for
individuals who possess moderate levels of cardiopulmonary fitness. Using a work intensity of
80% or 100% VGO2peak and a recovery intensity of 0% or 50% VGO2peak, subjects were able to
exercise within the ACSM recommended range for exercise intensity. Based upon the data it
would appear that a protocol such as the 80/0 may be appropriate for those individuals who
are just beginning a program or have little experience with interval-type activity. By contrast, a
100/50 protocol could not be completed by all of the subjects and therefore may be too intense
for some individuals.

There were
no significant group differences between control and either of the cold water immersion interventions. Seated cold water
immersion was associated with lower DOMS than standing cold water immersion (effect size = 1.86; P = 0.001). These
data suggest that increasing hydrostatic pressure by standing in cold water does not provide an additional recovery benefit
over seated cold water immersion, and that both seated and standing immersions have no benefit in promoting recovery

Short inter-set rest blunts resistance exercise-inducedFernando Farias
Manipulating the rest-recovery interval between sets of resistance exercise may influence
training-induced muscle remodelling. The aim of this study was to determine the acute muscle
anabolic response to resistance exercise performed with short or long inter-set rest intervals.
In a study with a parallel-group design, 16 males completed four sets of bilateral leg-press and
knee-extension exercise at 75% of one-repetition maximum to momentary muscular failure,

A CWI placebo is also as effective as

This can likely be attributed to improved subjective ratings
of pain and readiness for exercise, suggesting that the hy-
pothesized physiological benefits surrounding CWI may
be at least partly placebo related.
Effects of Cold Water Immersion on Muscle OxygenationFernando Farias
Postexercise cold water immersion has been advocated to
athletes as a means of accelerating recovery and improving perform-
ance. Given the effects of cold water immersion on blood flflw,
evaluating in vivo changes in tissue oxygenation during cold water
immersion may help further our understanding of this recovery
modality. This study aimed to investigate the effects of cold water
immersion on muscle oxygenation and performance during repeated
bouts of fatiguing exercise in a group of healthy young adults.
EFFECTS OF STRENGTH TRAINING ON SQUAT AND SPRINT PERFORMANCE IN SOCCER PLAYERSFernando Farias
We have demonstrated that a simple in-season strength training program resulted in an improvement in maximal back squat performance, which was reflected in improve- ments in short sprint performance, as identified by a decrease in sprint time over 5, 10, and 20 m, in professional soccer players, in line with the hypotheses. Furthermore, the changes in relative 1RM squat strength demonstrate strong associations with the changes in 5 (r = 0.62), 10 (r = 0.78), and 20-m (r = 0.60) sprint performances.
COMPARATIVE STUDY OF SLOW AND FAST SURYANAMASKAR ON PHYSIOLOGICAL FUNCTIONYogacharya AB Bhavanani
Numerous scientific studies have reported beneficial physiological changes after short and long term yoga training. Suryanamaskar is an integral part of modern yoga training and may be performed either in a slow or rapid manner. As there are few studies on suryanamaskar we conducted this study to study differential effect of 6 months training in the fast and slow versions. 42 school children in the age group of 12 to 16 were randomly divided into two groups of 21 each. Group I and Group II received 6 months training in performance of slow suryanamaskar (SSN) and fast suryanamaskar (FSN) respectively. Training in SSN produced a significant decrease in diastolic pressure. In contrast, training in FSN produced a significant increase in systolic pressure. Although there was a highly significant increase in hand grip strength and hand grip endurance in both the groups, the increase in hand grip endurance in FSN group was significantly more than in SSN group. MIP and MEP increased significantly in both groups and the increase of MIP in the FSN group was more significant as compared to SSN. Training in SSN reduced the resting diastolic pressure and rate-pressure-product, which, indicates a decrease in load on the heart. In contrast, FSN increased diastolic pressure and rate-pressure-product. The present study shows suryanamaskar has positive physiological benefits as evidenced by changes in pulmonary function, respiratory pressures, handgrip strength, handgrip endurance and resting cardiovascular parameters. It also demonstrates that there are differences between performance of suryanamaskar in a slow and fast manner and that the effects of FSN are similar to physical aerobic exercises whereas the effects of SSN are similar to those of Yoga training.
Sprint running acceleration is a key feature of physical performance in team sports, and recent
literature shows that the ability to generate large magnitudes of horizontal ground reaction force
and mechanical effectiveness of force application are paramount. We tested the hypothesis that
very-heavy loaded sled sprint training would induce an improvement in horizontal force
production, via an increased effectiveness of application. Training-induced changes in sprint
performance and mechanical outputs were computed using a field method based on velocity-
time data, before and after an 8-week protocol (16 sessions of 10x20-m sprints). 16 male
amateur soccer players were assigned to either a very-heavy sled (80% body-mass sled load)
or a control group (unresisted sprints). The main outcome of this pilot study is that very-heavy
sled resisted sprint training, using much greater loads than traditionally recommended, clearly
increased maximal horizontal force production compared to standard unloaded sprint training
(effect size of 0.80 vs 0.20 for controls, unclear between-group difference) and mechanical
effectiveness (i.e. more horizontally applied force; effect size of 0.95 vs -0.11, moderate
between-group difference)
High chronic training loads and exposure to bouts of maximal velocity running...Fernando Farias
The ability to produce high speeds is considered an important
quality for performance, with athletes shown to achieve 85–94% of
maximal velocity during team sport match-play.3 Well-developed
high-speed running ability and maximal velocity are required of
players during competition in order to beat opposition players
to possession and gain an advantage in attacking and defensive
situations.

Eccentric training using external loads greater than the
relative concentric training intensity is a potent stimulus for
enhancements in muscle mechanical function, and MTU
morphological and architectural adaptations. The inclusion
of eccentric loads above maximal concentric strength is
therefore an avenue to induce novel training stimuli and
effect change in key determinants, and functional metrics,
of strength, power and speed performance. Strength
improvements are largely mode-specific and arise from a
combination of neural, morphological and architectural
adaptations [8]. Increased agonist volitional drive is posited
as the primary contributing factor to the marked increases
in eccentric strength observed following training [54].
Eccentric training improves concentric muscle power and

A Study to Explore the Effects of Varied Tempo music on Brisk Walking Perform...IOSR Journals
Abstract: In the age of technological gadgets, music has become more than just background noise at a
party. Recent studies have seen that music has a much greater effect than just providing a distraction. Studies
conducted by sports psychologists have determined that music has a great impact on the performance level of an
athlete. A sports psychologist at Brunel University, Dr. Costas Karageorghis, has done studies to see the results
of synchronous music and asynchronous music. Synchronous music, music that has a clear and steady beat,
was what was shown to elevate a person’s performance by twenty percent whereas asynchronous music,
background music, was shown to calm the nerves of athletes by as much as ten percent. The above facts and
thoughts made the scholar enthusiastic about the amazing effects of music on human performance and hence he
premeditated to conduct “The Study to Explore the Effects of Varied Tempo music on Brisk Walking
Performance”. For the study 21 male and female B.P.Ed students age ranging between 21 to 26 of Department
of Physical Education University of Kalyani were selected randomly as the subjects of the present study. The
subjects were divided into two groups one Boys and the other Girls. Both the groups were made to perform 10
minutes continuous brisk walk in three different test days. On the first day the subjects were made to run without
any music, on the second day they were made to run with low tempo music and on the third day the subjects
performed 10 minutes brisk walking with slow tempo music. The author mainly measured the distances covered
by the subjects with brisk walking for three times namely once without music, another with high tempo or fast
music and for the third time with slow or low tempo music. Data analysis revealed that there was significant
difference in performance when compared between slow music and fast music and also between no music and
fast music. Thus the author reached to the ultimate conclusion that music i.e. fast music unquestionably has
positive impact on exercise or physical performance.

Study shows music affects exercise performanceTayla_Cheeseman
A study published in the International Journal of Physiology, Pathophysiology, and Pharmacology shows that fast and loud music increases the total duration of exercise and heart rate. Researchers, however, see no correlation between the increase in heart rate and presence or absence of music due to lack of uniformity in exercise protocol.

The Effectiveness of Music Therapy on Cerebral Palsy Patients Receiving Rehab...inventionjournals
Objective: To find out the effect of music therapy in cerebral palsy (CP) patients between who received conventional rehabilitation treatments and who additionally received music therapy Methods: In this retrospective study, 50 CP patients who received rehabilitation treatments on a day-ward basis for at least six months, between March 2013 and February 2015, were selected as subjects. Of the 50 patients, 25 received only conventional rehabilitation treatment (rehabilitation group), and the remaining 25 received both the conventional rehabilitation treatment and music therapy (music therapy group). In this study, the results of the Korean-version Denver Developmental Screening Test 2 (DDST-2) and the social quotient (SQ) were confirmed, before and after the treatments. Results: At baseline, no statistically significant differences were confirmed between the rehabilitation group and the music therapy group in terms of gender, age, and diagnosis. Korean-version DDST-2 scores and the SQ score also did not show statistically significant differences between the groups. With the intervention, the music therapy group showed more statistically significant improvements in the gross motor, fine motor, language, and personal-social parts than the rehabilitation group. The music therapy group also showed greater improvement in SQ score than the rehabilitation group, but the difference was statistically insignificant. Conclusion: This study was conducted to prove the effectiveness of the current music therapy program and to investigate the area in which the therapy produces the greatest effect. It is hoped that the therapy would find wider application among children in the future as it showed significant functional improvements in the gross motor, fine motor, language, and personal-social parts in this study
Effect of Yoga on Selected Physical and Physiological Variables of Physical E...iosrjce
According to medical scientists, yoga therapy is successful because of the balance created in the
nervous and endocrine systems which directly influences all the other systems and organs of the body. Yoga acts
both as a “Curative therapy”. The very essence of yoga lies in attaining mental peace, improved concentration
powers, a relaxed state of living and harmony in relationship.Regular practice of asana, pranayama and
meditation can help such diverse, ailments such as diabetes, blood pressure, digestive disorders, arthritis,
arteriosclerosis, chronic fatigue, asthma, varicose veins and heart conditions. Laboratory tests have proved the
yogi’s increased abilities of consciously controlling autonomic or involuntary functions, such as temperature,
heartbeat and blood pressure.The study was undertaken with the aim to observe the effect of yoga(asana
&pranayama) onselected physical & physiological variables of physical education B.P.ED (Bachelor of
Physical Education) and M.P.ED (Master of Physical Education) students.For this study total 40 male students
were selected as subject from SGGS Khalsa College Mahilpur, Punjab, India. Their age ranged between 18-24
years. Students were given the treatment of selected yogicasana &pranayama for 12 weeks Result shows that the
regular practice of yoga improvedphysical variables (Muscular strength & endurance of trunk; and flexibility)
& physiologicalvariables (Pulse Rate, Vital Capacity & Peak Flow Rate) significantly.

2 Case Reports of Gastric Ultrasound
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Effect of Music on Perceived Exertion during a 15-minute Run
1. Effect of Music on Perceived Exertion during a 15-minute Run

People are trying to become more active in their daily lives by exercising more,
eating healthier, or changing their lifestyle. A current trend shows individuals
incorporating music into training sessions, whether it be a personal session, group
fitness, or during competitive sport settings (10) as a possible way to stay motivated.
Motivation is the psychological reason or desire of the individual to want to work harder
during exercise. In the field of athletics, the music as a motivational tool leads to overall
sports performance and hopefully the athlete’s success. While most sports can easily
access music during practice and competitions, swimming has very limited applications.
There is a need to further investigate the effects of music on swimming performance
(12). Swimmers were chosen due to their training in the water and limited on land
exercise. The recreational exerciser group was compiled of individuals who moderately
exercised in accordance to ACSM guidelines to ensure for adherence to the study.
Music does have an effect on exercise (12). When deciding on what music to
listen to, tempo plays a role, whether it’s calming nerves before a race or match, or
moderate-fast tempo to keep the athlete on a consistent pace (4). Beats per minute
(BPM) was used as the measure of tempo during this study. The tempo is the easiest
part of a song to manipulate and does effect an individual’s heart rate (13). There are
studies that have questioned different tempos, but answers are still needed to
determine if an improvement in performance or change in perceived exertion (RPE) will
occur. Specifically controlling the tempo of pre-selected music has yet to be examined.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the use of music in a training
environment, specifically controlling its tempo, and its effect on perceived exertion of
swimmers or recreational exercisers. It was hypothesized that non-athletes will
experience a greater RPE in the music condition.
Introduction
Our data suggests recreational exercisers experienced a greater
challenge when correlating their RPE with their intensity in both trials.
Specifically during trial 2, the RPE of recreational exercisers dropped
significantly, explaining the greater effect of listening to music. The recreational
exercisers perceived a higher exercise intensity running with music rejecting
the null hypothesis. Recreational exercisers perceived themselves to be
working at a higher intensity with an exponential increase when compared to
the swimmers who had a gradual increase of RPE during the second trial.
Through this study, we learned that music does have some effects while
running, specifically its overall intensity. Because music seemed to make the
run more pleasurable, it is possible that music will help with the adherence to
exercise. The music seemed to make a difference on the level of comfort on
the participant which would further improve performance. A practical
application for the study would be to implement music into practices to help
athletes push themselves beyond what they currently do, more intensity, in
order to be more prepared for games.
Future research could test the psychological difference of self-selected
music and pre-selected music and how that affects the intensity of participants
during different activities. It would also be interesting to see this study
conducted with a different athlete group to determine if all athletes perceive
their exertion at a rate that correlates with their intensity.
Conclusion
A multivariate data analysis was used and showed there was not a statistical significant in the difference in
RPE between the two groups, F (4.20, 1.0), p = .068, Greenhouse-Geisser 7.752, η2 = 2.51. The swimmers perceived
a mean RPE score of 11.35 on the Borg Scale in trial 1. During the second trial, with music, mean RPE score went
up to 11.52. The recreational exercisers perceived a lower intensity than the swimmers with a mean RPE score of
10.00 for the first trial. The second trial saw a decrease in mean RPE score to 9.58. Without music, swimmers
perceived a lower mean RPE score 13.80 and increased compared to the intervention of music with a mean RPE
score of 14.08. Without music, the recreational exercisers perceived a high mean RPE score of 16.40, while the
intervention of music decreased mean RPE score down to 13.98.

Key Words
Participants were to run two 15-minute trials with a two-week break in between.
Research was conducted on an indoor track roughly 175 meters around. A heart rate
(HR) monitor and watch was worn by all participants. Prior to the run, participants
completed an informed consent and a dynamic warm-up consisting of high knees, butt
kicks, Frankenstein’s, lunges, karaoke, and ten leg swings on each leg - in that order -
conducted on the track, approximately 10 meters, down and back. Participants then
jogged a lap before beginning the timed run. A Borg scale was used to measure rate of
perceived exertion (RPE) which determined the intensity with which participants ran.
The scale ranged from 6-20. Every other lap, HR and RPE were taken. After the two-
week break, participants ran another 15-minute run with the addition of a pre-selected
playlist at 135 bpm and a pair of Bluetooth headphones. The same warm-up and data
collection was done.
We used SPSS 24 to perform a repeated-measures MANOVA to determine the
difference in RPE between swimmers and recreational exercisers during a 15-minute run
with and without music.
