25. Relationships among the Y balance test, Berg Balance Scale, and lower limb strength in middle-aged and older females
Background: Older females have less dynamic postural control and muscle strength than do middle-aged females. Aging-related strength losses may limit balancing performance. Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of the Y Balance Test (YBT) and lower limb strength to discriminate between females in 2 age groups, the relationship

26. Study of muscle fatigue in isokinetic exercise with estimated conduction velocity and traditional electromyographic indicators
INTRODUCTION: In the study of human biomechanics, it is often desirable to evaluate fatigue in the muscles that are involved in performing a particular task. Identifying the phenomena responsible for this condition is a problem that in most cases is complex and requires appropriate research mechanisms. Isokinetic dynamometry (ID) and surface electromyography

27. Strength deficits of the shoulder complex during isokinetic testing in people with chronic stroke
OBJECTIVES: To examine the strength deficits of the shoulder complex after stroke and to characterize the pattern of weakness according to type of movement and type of isokinetic parameter. METHOD: Twelve chronic stroke survivors and 12 age-matched healthy controls had their shoulder strength measured using a Biodex isokinetic dynamometer. Concentric meas

28. Effectiveness of muscle strengthening and description of protocols for preventing falls in the elderly: a systematic review
Background: Falls are a geriatric syndrome that is considered a significant public health problem in terms of morbidity and mortality because they lead to a decline in functional capacity and an impaired quality of life in the elderly. Lower limb muscle strengthening seems to be an effective intervention for preventing falls; however, there is no consensus

29. The acute effects of strength, endurance and concurrent exercises on the Akt/mTOR/p70S6K1 and AMPK signaling pathway responses in rat skeletal muscle
The activation of competing intracellular pathways has been proposed to explain the reduced training adaptations after concurrent strength and endurance exercises (CE). The present study investigated the acute effects of CE, strength exercises (SE), and endurance exercises (EE) on phosphorylated/total ratios of selected AMPK and Akt/mTOR/p70S6K1 pathway prot

30. Strength deficit of knee flexors is dependent on hip position in adults with chronic hemiparesis
BACKGROUND: The extent to which muscle length affects force production in paretic lower limb muscles after stroke in comparison to controls has not been established. OBJECTIVES: To investigate knee flexor strength deficits dependent on hip joint position in adults with hemiparesis and compare with healthy controls. METHOD: a cross-sectional study with ten su

31. CINESIOTERAPIA PERINEAL EM MULHERES COM DÉFICIT MUSCULAR NO ASSOALHO PÉLVICO E COM UMA ÚNICA VIA DE PARTO: ensaio clínico / PERINEAL KINESIOTHERAPY IN WOMEN WITH MUSCLE DEFICIT IN PELVIC FLOOR AND WITH ONE ROUTE OF CHILDBIRTH: trial
BACKGROUND: Pregnancy and delivery route influence the strength of pelvic floor muscles, which are considered risk factors for the onset of urinary incontinence and genital dystopias. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effects of kinesiotherapy in the pelvic floor muscles in women with a single delivery. METHODS: Participants were 503 women who responded to the pro

32. Variabilidade da frequência cardíaca após treinamento concorrente : comparação entre homens e mulheres de meia-idade = Heart rate variability after concurrent training : comparison between middle-aged men and women / Heart rate variability after concurrent training : comparison between middle-aged men and women
The autonomic nervous system dysfunction and the increase in chronic degenerative diseases are manifested by the aging process, leading to changes of the autonomic modulation cardiac, and therefore the heart rate variability. Regarding the response of the autonomic nervous system and cardiorespiratory adaptive responses are even less enlightening evidencing

35. O tempo e o percentual de alongamento estático influenciam a resposta mecânica do tendão? / How does static stretching influence the tendon s mechanical response
Background: Stretching exercises basically aim at obtaining physiological and functional balance since they reduce tissue rigidity and seem to have a positive impact on lesion prevention. However, the parameters that govern the practice of stretching have not yet been standardized. The objective of this study was to analyze in vitro the mechanical response o
