“…However, not much research has been conducted on the effects of detraining adaptations with regard to different training modes and physical performance (28), although a number of recent studies focused on detraining have been based on a program of combined resistance and endurance training (4,8,(35)(36)(37). Moreover, although numerous studies have also focused on obese subjects or seniors (2,8,27,37,39,40), less is known concerning changes in body weight with regard to intervention research focusing on young men (25), particularly comparing the responses to resistance vs. endurance training (28,31).…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in the body composition, body size, muscle strength, and VO2max after 24 weeks of resistance or endurance training and detraining in young men. Thirty healthy college-aged men (20.4 ± 1.36 years) participated in the study. Subjects were assigned to resistance training group (RTG, n = 10), endurance training group (ETG, n = 10), and control group (CG, n = 10). The training program consisted of running or weight-resistance exercise for 3 sessions per week under supervision. VO2max, upper and lower body strength (UBS, LBS), body fat, lean body mass, and body circumference were measured at baseline and after training and detraining. After the training period, the exercise groups demonstrated significant increases in VO2max and LBS (p < 0.05). The UBS, lean mass (LM), and body size of arm and calf were significantly greater in the RTG than in the other 2 groups (p<0.05). In addition, the strength and LM of the RTG were still greater than the baseline values after 24 weeks of detraining (p < 0.05). The conclusions of this study are (a) that endurance or resistance training alone led to training-specific improvements in physical performance, body composition, and body size of the arms for the young men examined and (b) that the RTG maintained the gains in strength and LM for more prolonged periods after training ceased than the endurance training group.

“…In fact, despite evidence of physiological decline during detraining, there is not enough data suggesting how long the beneficial effects of training are maintained, how this affects the health related quality of life (HRQoL) and how functional fitness changes following the cessation of exercise intervention in institutionalized elders [12]. …”

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of different strategies of health on the levels of physical activity (PA), physical fitness (PF), cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and quality of life (QoL) of the institutionalized elderly. Concurrently studies were made of the effect of detraining on these same variables. In this investigation we carried out a prospective longitudinal study with an experimental design, with 1 year plus 3 months of a detraining period. Methodology. (a) A questionnaire with socio-demographic characteristics and a QoL scale (MOS SF-36); (b) Functional Fitness Test to assess PF; (c) An MTI Actigraph to evaluate the PA; (d) Biochemical analysis of blood, blood pressure and bio-impedance. The Main Results Indicated That: (i) ST significantly improved strength and body flexibility and AT the aerobic endurance, agility/dynamic balance and lower strength and flexibility; (ii) Implications of detraining were more evident on the PA groups in the lower body flexibility, which is associated with agility/dynamic balance and lower strength in the AT group; (iii) Cardiovascular variables improved significantly especially blood pressure, cholesterol and glucose in the ST and HDL in the AT group; not having undergone significant changes with the detraining. The results of this thesis contribute positively to highlight the importance of PA in the promotion of health, prevention and reduction of CVD risk factors and the improvement of the PF and QoL.

“…Research has also shown that people with a higher frequency of falls have greater sway velocity and greater anteroposterior (AP) displacement during quiet standing (Fernie, Gryfe, Holliday, & Llewellyn, 1982;Maki, Holliday, & Topper, 1994). Gait has been documented as a sensitive predictor of fall risk, frailty, and functional decline (Riley, DellaCroce, & Kerrigan, 2001;Teixeira-Salmela et al, 2005;Winter, Patla, Frank, & Walt, 1990;Wong, Wong, Pang, Azizah, & Dass, 2003;Woo, Ho, Lau, Chan, & Yuen, 1995). Specifically, spatiotemporal gait parameters such as gait velocity, stride length, cadence, double support time, swing time, and the coefficients of variation (CV) for stride length and swing time are predictors of fall risk in older adults (Callisaya et al, 2011;Callisaya, Blizzard, Schmidt, McGinley, & Srikanth, 2010;Hausdorff et al, 2001).…”
