Filter by:Introduction: Cycling represents a very important level of practice, being among the most practiced sports in Spain. As in any other sport discipline, its practice is associated with the appearance of overloads and sports injuries. Specifically, the 2 most affected areas are the lumbar and knee areas, with an annual prevalence of 58% and 36%, respectively. There is no clear hypothesis to explain the low back pain associated with the practice of cycling, but several authors agree that it may be due to holding an inverted posture of the rachis and the characteristics associated with this sport: long duration, static posture, high intensities, vibrations generated by the terrain, and so forth. The project proposes to analyze the acute effect of a long-lasting bicycle trip (3 hours) on the muscles involved in low back and knee pain, see, lumbar paravertebral, quadriceps and hamstrings, by means of tensiomyography (TMG). Objectives: the main objective of this study is to evaluate the behavior of the mechanical characteristics of the lower back and thigh muscles, by means of tensiomyography, in amateur cyclists after an acute effort on road and mountain bikes, and to study their possible relationship with low back pain (LBP).
This study evaluates the effects of an isokinetic fatigue protocol of the quadriceps on the amount of co-contractions of this last with the hamstrings during a maximal isometric flexion movement in hemiparetic stroke patients. The effect of such a protocol on gait parameters and spasticity of the quadriceps will be evaluated also.
This project aims to evaluate if after 14 days of grape juice ingestion there is improvement of the parameters of strength, fatigue and oxidative stress in judo fighters. The study will be a randomized, blind, crossover clinical trial of 20 Judo athletes. Judo wrestling simulations will be performed on 3 different days.
The aims of this study are to investigate the effects of scapular muscle fatigue on scapular joint position sense and neuromuscular performance (scapular muscle strength, the kinematics data and muscle activity of shoulder during scaption (arm elevation in the scapular plane)). The investigators hypothesize that scapular muscle fatigue would increase scapular reposition error and affect neuromuscular performance of the scapular during scaption.
The aim of the study is to investigate a pre and post workout supplementation (15 days) with Recoverben® , a Aloysia citriodora extract on recovery after exhaustive exercise. Effects will be investigated with 400mg Recoverben® and compared to placebo.
Sometimes, during strenuous aerobic activity, activity ceases only when the discomfort that follows lack of oxygen would be intolerable. Reaching this fatigue condition can cause organ damage, muscular damage and / or in different tissues of the body. In this study, investigators aim at developing new indexes, based on hemodynamics measurements from the peripheral micro - circulation system, for the benefit of early detection of fatigue during accelerated physical activity.
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Kinesio taping on lactic acid in an running anaerobic test.
Nerves are the rate limiting factor that control muscle function. However, it is unknown if a nutritional supplement can change the nerve-muscle interaction, and therefore alter human performance. This study will be the first to examine the effects of omega-3 supplementation on neuromuscular function in trained individuals.
The effect of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA, e.g. rocuronium) on respiratory muscle activity is well known. However, since the availability of sugammadex, to our knowledge, no study has been conducted to evaluate the effect of this novel product on these muscles. Our hypothesis is that by applying a different strategy in the use of neuromuscular blocking agents and their reversal agents we might see a different activity of the respiratory muscles.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether supplementation with SierraSil can improve anaerobic power and reduce muscle fatigue in a group of well-trained athletes. A secondary purpose is to examine the effect of SierraSil on the severity of delayed onset muscle soreness.
