Este estudo teve como objetivo verificar a influência de um treinamento de força (TF), unilateral (UL) ou bilateral (BL), no déficit bilateral (DB). O TF foi composto de 2 (duas) séries de 10 (dez) repetições máximas, na cadeira extensora e flexora de joelho, com duração de 8 (oito) semanas e fr...
Patrones de actividad física de adolescentes escolares: validez, confiabilidad y propuesta de percentiles para su evaluación
Rev. chil. pediatr; 88 (1), 2017
La actividad física (AF) regular durante la infancia y adolescencia es importante para prevenir las enfermedades no transmisibles y sus factores de riesgo. Objetivos: Validar un cuestionario que mide patrones de AF, su fiabilidad, comparar los niveles de AF alineados por edad cronológica y biológica y...
Carbohydrate mouth rinse reduces rating of perceived exertion but does not affect performance and energy systems contribution during a high-intensity exercise
Motriz (Online); 23 (3), 2017
Aim: The study aimed to verify the effect of carbohydrate (CHO) mouth rinse on time to exhaustion, energy systems contribution and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) during a high-intensity exercise. Methods Fourteen men performed an incremental exercise test to determine their maximal oxygen uptake and...
Moderate physical training counterbalances harmful effects of low-protein diet on heart: metabolic, oxidative and morphological parameters
Motriz (Online); 23 (3), 2017
Aims: Maternal low-protein diet induces several impairments on cardiac system. Conversely, moderate exercise has been widely recommended to health improvement due to its effects on heart function. Thus, we investigated whether the moderate physical training is capable to offset the lasting injuries of a...
Performance Optimization in Sport: A Psychophysiological Approach
Motriz (Online); 23 (4), 2017
In the last 20 years, there was a growing interest in the study of the theoretical and applied issues surrounding psychophysiological processes underlying performance. The psychophysiological monitoring, which enables the study of these processes, consists of the assessment of the activation and function...
Exercise training reverse autonomic dysfunction and hypertension in rats fed with high-fat diet
Motriz (Online); 23 (4), 2017
AIMS: We evaluated whether exercise training ameliorates cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction in obesity-induced by high-fat diet (HFD) in rats. METHODS Wistar male rats were assigned in normal diet, sedentary (ND-S) and trained (ND-T) and HFD, sedentary (HFD-S) and trained (HFD-T). Blood pressure (BP),...
Effects of isometric handgrip training in patients with cardiovascular disease: rationale and design of the ISOPRESS network
Motriz (Online); 23 (4), 2017
Meta-analytical studies have indicated that isometric handgrip training promotes significant reduction in blood pressure in hypertensive patients with similar or greater decreases in blood pressure than observed after aerobic and dynamic resistance training. However, several gaps in the literature still ...
Relationship between aerobic capacity and pelvic floor muscles function: a cross-sectional study
Braz. j. med. biol. res; 50 (11), 2017
The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between aerobic capacity and pelvic floor muscles (PFM) function in adult women. Women aged 18 or over and without urinary dysfunction or other chronic diseases were eligible to participate. They completed the habitual physical activity (HPA) q...

Bradykinin, insulin, and glycemia responses to exercise performed above and below lactate threshold in individuals with type 2 diabetes
Braz. j. med. biol. res; 50 (11), 2017
The aim of this study was to analyze the acute responses of bradykinin, insulin, and glycemia to exercise performed above and below lactate threshold (LT) in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Eleven participants with a diagnosis of T2D randomly underwent three experimental sessions 72 h ap...
