  • The Role of Aerobic and Anaerobic Training Programs on CD34+ Stem Cells and Chosen Physiological Variables
    Journal of Human Kinetics volume 35/2012, 69-79 DOI:10.2478/v10078-012-0080-y 69 Section II- Exercise Physiology & Sports Medicine The Role of Aerobic and Anaerobic Training Programs on CD34+ Stem Cells and Chosen Physiological Variables by Mohammed Nader Shalaby1, Mohammed Saad2, Samy Akar2, Mubarak Abdelreda Ali Reda3, Ahmed Shalgham2 Exercise is one of the most powerful non-pharmacological strategies, which can affect nearly all cells and organs in the body. Changes in the behavior of adult stem cells have been shown to occur in response to exercise. Exercise may act on regenerative potential of tissues by altering the ability to generate new stem cells and differentiated cells that are able to carry out tissue specific functions. The purpose of this study was to reveal the role of aerobic and anaerobic training programs on CD34+ Stem Cells and chosen physiological variables. Twenty healthy male athletes aged 18-24 years were recruited for this study. Healthy low active males and BMI matched participants (n=10) aged 20-22 years were recruited as controls. Aerobic and anaerobic training programs for 12 weeks were conducted. VO2max pulse observation was carried out using the Astrand Rhyming protocol. RBCs, WBCs, HB and hematocrit were estimated using a coulter counter, lactate by the Accusport apparatus, CD34+ stem cells by flow cytometry. VO2max was increased significantly in case of the aerobic training program compared to anaerobic one (62±2.2 ml/kg/min vs. 54±2.1 ml/kg/min). Haemotological values increased significantly in the anaerobic program when compared to the aerobic one, RBCs (5.3±0.3 and 4.9±0.2 mln/ul), WBCs (6.6±0.5 and 6.1±0.4 thous/ul), HB (15.4±0.4 and 14.2±0.5 g/de), Hematocrit (4.6±1.2 and 4.4±1.1 %), CD34+ stem cells count increased significantly in case of the anaerobic program compared to the aerobic (251.6±21.64 and 130±14.61) and sedentary one (172±24.10).

  • PE Fitness Components.Pdf
    The 5 Fitness Components 1. Cardiovascular (aerobic) – Cardiovascular fitness is how efficient the heart, lungs and blood vessels work during activity. 2. Muscular Endurance – How long you can sustain activities like: sit- ups, push-ups, rowing, running uphill and other muscle building exercises is muscular endurance. 3. Flexibility – The range of motion of your joints and muscles and your ability to stretch is flexibility. 4. Muscular strength – How much hard work your muscles can do and how explosive and quick you are is muscular strength 5. Body composition (fat to muscle ratio) – Your body should have a high percent of muscle and a low percent of fat to be healthy. CARDIOVASCULAR FITNESS - AEROBICS (means with oxygen) Aerobic exercise would be any large muscle movement done in a continuous and repetitive way for a long period of time. It is recommended that the exercises continue for at least 20 minutes at a pace, which raises the heart rate 60% to 80% of the maximum heart rate (MHR) and the increases respiration. The FIT (frequency, intensity, time) principle for an aerobic workout is: F (frequency) – exercise 3 to 5 times a week I (intensity) – keep your heart rate at about 60% - 80% of MHR T (time)– Exercise continuously for 20 minutes Cardiovascular exercise is the most important to maintain weight and health. DIFFERENT TYPES OF AEROBIC EXERCISE Aerobic exercises can be running or jogging, walking briskly, swimming laps, bicycling, dancing, rope jumping, stair climbing, playing handball, racket ball, squash, basketball, soccer, or interval training. TYPES OF AEROBIC CLASSES 1. High Impact – Doing large muscle movements with vigor.

  • Training Adaptations in Cycling How They Work Layout 1
    PERFORMANCE CYCLING CONDITIONING A NEWSLETTER DEDICATED TO IMPROVING CYCLISTS www.performancecondition.com/cycling Training Adaptations in Cycling - How They Work Kathy Zawadzki Have You Ever Wondered Why? We all hope (and sometimes pray) that the physical demands we place on our bodies during training will make us faster cy- clists. Traditional training has always included long hours in the saddle with countless miles on the open road. And usually, after much sweat and tears (and a few saddle sores and sunburn) we ride faster. Have you ever wondered why? What happens inside our bodies that allows us to keep pushing the envelope? How can we complete that race at the end of the season that would have killed us only a few months before? The human body is a remarkable combination of interacting systems that allow for great amounts of training adaptation. Training adaptation is a good thing as long as we don’t carry it too far. The million dollar question always comes back to “How much training, how hard and for how long?” In addition, you need to know how different types of training affect different as- pects of the sport. The demands of cycling are unique in that each athlete must have the ability to sprint well, maintain power for prolonged periods of time and be able to recover quickly. Sounds easy, right? Finding the perfect balance between stressing a rider’s body and allowing for proper recovery is crucial. Each rider is different and everyone adapts to training in individual ways. However, there are similar adaptations that take place in all of our bodies.

Forty-five male bodybuilders were divided into three groups: bodybuilders using growth hormone for at least 1 year (i.e., 3 to 4 times in the year) (GH-user, n = 15), bodybuilders using insulin-like growth factor-1 for at least 1 year (i.e., 3 to 4 times in the year) (IGF-1-user, n = 15), and peptide hormone-free bodybuilders (Non-user, n = 15). The heavy resistance exercise protocol consisted of five sets with 80% of one repetition maximum for six exercises. Blood samples were obtained pre and post heavy resistance exercise (HRE) in order to evaluate changes in oxidative stress (8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), malondialdehyde (MDA), and nitric oxide (NO)) and antioxidant biomarkers (glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT) and glutamate (GLU)) level.
