1. Twice-weekly exercise training reduces oxidative stress and proinflammatory cytokine levels in elder women
Abstract Aim: Reactive oxygen species and high concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines are related to diseases that are often triggered during the aging process. This study aimed to investigate the effect of moderate-intensity physical exercise, twice a week, on oxidative stress and inflammation biomarkers. Methods: Participants were older women aged 6

2. 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

3. Control of respiration in fish, amphibians and reptiles
Fish and amphibians utilise a suction/force pump to ventilate gills or lungs, with the respiratory muscles innervated by cranial nerves, while reptiles have a thoracic, aspiratory pump innervated by spinal nerves. However, fish can recruit a hypobranchial pump for active jaw occlusion during hypoxia, using feeding muscles innervated by anterior spinal nerves

4. Avaliação eletromiográfica comparativa de diferentes exercícios em quadrupedia do método Pilates / Comparative electromyographic evaluation of different quadruped Pilates method exercises
O método Pilates é um sistema de exercícios criado pelo alemão Joseph Pilates (1880-1967), que tem como foco o fortalecimento e estabilização da região abdominal e lombar, e que vem sendo adaptado para aplicação em diversas áreas da reabilitação, inclusive nas disfunções da região lombar. O controle dinâmico da musculatura do tronco tem um pa

5. Estudo do sono em trabalhadores noturnos e realiação da ginastica laboral / A study on night shift workers sleep and stretch break
The present study analyzed the effects of the stretch break on complaints associated to the sleep of night shift workers in a plastic manufacturing company in Sorocaba-SP. The purposes were: checking the existence of complaints associated to sleep, comparing the sleep subjective quality, identifying the habitual sleep pattern of the subjects before and after

6. Comparative study of the use effects of two kinds of verbal commands in the muscle stretch training / "Estudo comparativo dos efeitos da utilização de dois tipos de comandos verbais diferentes no treinamento de alongamento muscular"
Avaliou-se os efeitos da utilização de um comando verbal detalhado (CVD) e um simplificado (CVS) sobre a força muscular e a flexibilidade em 31 alunos dos cursos de Fisioterapia e de Terapia Ocupacional. O Grupo A submeteu-se a um programa de alongamento muscular com CVD, e o Grupo B, com CVS. Mensurou-se a força muscular por meio da miometria e avaliou-

7. ContribuiÃÃes da musculaÃÃo na postura em portadores de escoliose estrutural
Considering two common sense evidence â the growing search for physical activities and the number of cases of postural shunting line, the effects of body building had been observed in individuals of the female gender with ages between 15 and 29 with confirmed diagnosis of structural scoliosis varying from 10 to 40 degree angle de Cobb. Began from the anamne

9. Stretch-stimulated glucose uptake in skeletal muscle is mediated by reactive oxygen species and p38 MAP-kinase
Alternatives to the canonical insulin-stimulated pathway for glucose uptake are exercise- and exogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS)-stimulated glucose uptake. We proposed a model wherein mechanical loading, i.e. stretch, stimulates production of ROS to activate AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) to increase glucose uptake. Immunoblotting was used to measure prote

10. Effects of prolonged walking on neural and mechanical components of stretch responses in the human soleus muscle
After repeated passive stretching, tendinous tissue compliance increases in the human soleus (SOL) muscle–tendon unit. During movement, such changes would have important consequences for neural and mechanical stretch responses. This study examined the existence of such effects in response to a 75 min walking intervention. Eleven healthy subjects walked on

11. Muscle stiffness, strength loss, swelling and soreness following exercise-induced injury in humans.
1. In order to study injury-related changes in muscle stiffness, injury to the elbow flexors of thirteen human subjects was induced by a regimen of eccentric exercise. 2. Passive stiffness over an intermediate range of elbow angles was measured with a device which held the relaxed arm of the subject in the horizontal plane and stepped it through the range of

12. Cyclic stretch reduces myofibrillar protein synthesis despite increases in FAK and anabolic signalling in L6 cells
Muscle protein synthesis is increased after exercise, but evidence is now accruing that during muscular activity it is suppressed. In life, muscles are subjected to shortening forces due to contraction, but may also be subject to stretching forces during lengthening. It would be biologically inefficient if contraction and stretch have different effects on mu
