Cerebrovascular regulation parameters were not associated with white matter lesions (p>0.468).

Derek Kingsley, FACSM) Email: [email protected] (No relevant relationships reported) WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 2019 29, MAY WEDNESDAY, While data have demonstrated that resistance exercise without blood flow restriction (BFR) decreases vagal tone up to 30 minutes, the effects of upper- versus lower-body resistance exercise with BFR on autonomic modulation are unknown.PURPOSE: To evaluate autonomic modulation in response to upper- and lower-body resistance exercise with BFR. METHODS: Autonomic modulation was assessed in twenty resistance-trained individuals at rest, 30 (R30), and 60 (R60) minutes after either upper- or lower-body resistance exercise with or without BFR. The upper- and lower- body resistance exercise consisted of the lat pulldown and chest press, and knee extension and knee flexion, respectively. The BFR (40% of arterial occlusion pressure) and without BFR conditions consisted of 4 sets of 30, 15, 15, and 15 repetitions at 30% 1-repetition maximum (1RM), and 4 sets of 8 repetitions at 70% 1RM, respectively. Autonomic modulation was expressed as natural logarithm (Ln), and included total power (LnTP), high frequency power (LnHF), and sympathovagal balance (LnLF/ LnHF ratio). An ANOVA was used to evaluate groups (upper- or lower-body) across conditions (BFR or without BFR) across time (Rest, R30, and R60) on autonomic modulation. RESULTS: There were no significant 3-way interactions for any variables. There were no changes for LnTP. There were significant main effects of time for LnHF (Upper-body with BFR (UBFR): Rest: 7.3±1.6ms2, R30: 6.3±1.6ms2, R60: 6.7±1.5ms2; Upper-body without BFR (UW): Rest: 7.1±1.4ms2, R30: 6.1±1.5ms2, R60: 6.5±1.3ms2; Lower-body with BFR (LBFR): Rest: 6.9±1.3ms2, R30: 6.2±1.6ms2, R60: 7.1±1.4ms2; Lower-body without BFR (LW): Rest: 7.3±1.5ms2, R30: 6.3±1.8ms2, R60: 7.1±1.4ms2) and the LnLF/LnHF ratio (UBFR: Rest: 3.9±0.9ms2, R30: 5.1±10.9ms2, R60: 4.8±1.0ms2; UW: Rest: 3.7±1.0ms2, R30: 4.9±0.8ms2, R60: 4.8±0.7ms2; LBFR: Rest: 4.0±1.0ms2, R30: 4.8±1.1ms2, R60: 4.5±1.0ms2; LW: Rest: 3.9±1.0ms2, R30: 5.0±0.9ms2, R60: 4.65±0.84ms2) such that LnHF and LnLF/HF ratio were significantly reduced, and augmented, after upper- and lower-body resistance exercise with and without BFR. CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that either upper- or lower-body 63 Board #3 May 29 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM resistance exercise with or without BFR significantly alters autonomic modulation up to 60 minutes after an acute bout of resistance exercise.

A secondary aim was to muscle oxygen delivery in the training-induced increase in VO max. As lack of change explore the relationship between cerebrovascular regulation and 1) the presence of 2 in a-vO2diff does not necessarily indicate a lack of change in peripheral function, white matter lesions and 2) cognitive function. the purpose of this study was to determine the combined influences of adaptations Methods: We recruited individuals who were cognitively normal older adults.

We have therefore compared the changes of cardiac biomarkers after workload-matched intermittent and continuous exercise in such runners. METHODS: Twelve endurance runners (11 males, 1 female; age, 23.5±5.5 y; VO2max, −1 −1 −1 62.4±5.4 ml.kg .min ; velocity of VO2max [vVO2max], 17.1±1.4 km.h ; training volume, 44 ± 25 km.wk−1) completed intermittent and continuous exercise trials in random order. Intermittent exercise consisted of hard running at 90% vVO2max for 2 min followed by easy running at 50% vVO2max for 2 min, repeated for 92 min in total. The continuous run was performed at 70% vVO2max for 92 min. Blood samples were drawn before exercise and at 0, 2, 4, 24 and 48 h after the completion of exercise for assay of various cardiac biomarkers. Changes in concentration of each biomarker were averaged over 0-24 h for comparison of intermittent with continuous exercise after adjustment for baseline concentration and exercise intensity expressed as percent of heart-rate reserve (%HRR). RESULTS: There were trivial differences between the changes in concentration adjusted to the mean intensity of 78%HRR for all biomarkers investigated, but at 85%HRR high-sensitivity cardiac troponin-I and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin-T were moderately higher following intermittent exercise (factor mean change ×/÷90% confidence limits: 3.4 ×/÷1.9 and 2.1 ×/÷1.8 respectively). Changes in other cardiac biomarkers at 85%HRR were trivial. CONCLUSIONS: Prolonged intermittent exercise is potentially more damaging to 64 Board #4 May 29 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM heart muscle than continuous exercise of the same average running speed at higher average heart rates.

    THE UNITED STATES OLYMPIC COMMITTEE ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT. JOE KOVACS, SHOT PUT As the track & field outdoor season comes to a close, shot put thrower Joe Kovacs has enjoyed a breakout year in 2015. At the 2015 IAAF World Championships in Beijing, Kovacs won his first World Championship title in the men’s shot put on August 23. Kovacs finished the qualifying round in the lead with a mark of 21.36m, automatically qualifying him for the final on just his second attempt. In the final, he threw a 21.93m for his fifth attempt at the Bird’s Nest, setting him apart from the pack with a 19cm lead. The win in Beijing marks Kovacs’ seventh first place victory so far in 2015 and he is the sixth United States thrower to win a world title. Leading up to the World Championships in Beijing, Kovacs led the pack throughout the season. He had a strong start at the UCLA Rafer Johnson/Jackie Joyner-Kersee Invitational in April where he claimed first place and improved his personal best distance. Kovacs continued this strong momentum into the 2015 IAAF Diamond League meets where he dominated the competition earning three first place finishes as well as a second and a fourth place. To add to his list of 2015 gold medals and first place finishes, Kovacs won gold at the USA Track & Field National Championships in June with a throw of 21.84m. One of Kovacs’ biggest victories during his outstanding 2015 season was at the IAAF Diamond League meet in Monaco in mid-July.
