“…To determine training intensity, and to measure 1-RM, an indirect method was utilized (29). In addition to the resistance training protocol, the RT + AT performed additional aerobic training using a treadmill thrice weekly for the eight weeks beginning at an intensity of 55% maximum heart rate (HR max ) for 20 minutes per session.…”

Background: Obesity, as a chronic disease, is becoming increasingly prevalent especially among women. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the effects of resistance training (RT), concurrent resistance training and aerobic training (RT + AT) on visfatin concentrations and body composition in overweight and obese women. Methods: An eight-week pretest-posttest design with two experimental exercising groups and one control group was used. 45 overweight and obese women were randomized into resistance training (RT), concurrent resistance and aerobic training (RT + AT) or an education-only groups (EDU). All participants received a dietary and education/counselling intervention. However, only the RT and RT + AT group participated in the eight-week exercise training. Results: Repeated measures analysis showed that visfatin was significantly decreased by 8.5% in the RT (P = 0.02) and 29.2% in the RT + AT (P < 0.001), but not in EDU (3.7%; P = 0.22). BMI was decreased in the RT (6.8%; P < 0.001), RT + AT (8.1%; P < 0.001) and EDU (4.4%; P < 0.001), while BF% decreased in the RT (6.9%; P = 0.001), RT + AT (13.1%; P= 0.001), and EDU (4.9%; P = 0.020). WHR was decreased in the RT (2.4%; P = 0.001), in the RT + AT (4.2%; P = 0.002) and EDU (2.5%; P = 0.02). VO2max (mL.kg -1 .min -1 ) increased in the RT (16.3%; P =

“…En la investigación de Paula, Cunha, y Tufanin (2014), evaluaron los efectos del ER sobre los marcadores glucé-micos, pero con una mayor utilización del EA que el ER. No obstante, lo que es evidente en la literatura es que el ER en conjunto con el EA, tiene la capacidad de disminuir la grasa corporal, especialmente la abdominal y visceral, así como la glucemia post prandial, o sea, tanto el ER como el EA son eficaces para la mejora de la aptitud física, siendo así, esta desarrolla un papel esencial en la promoción de la salud de sus practicantes (De Souza et al, 2013, Park, Park, Lim, & Park, 2015, Roma et al, 2013, Shaw, Shaw, & Brown, 2015, Slentz et al, 2011. En el estudio de Hamasaki et al, (2015), utilizando una muestra de pacientes obesos con diabetes tipo 2, los autores detectaron que el ER de baja intensidad con movimiento lento, junto con el EA al 50% de la FC, fue capaz de disminuir la masa corporal (-2.2 kg), la masa grasa corporal (-2.1 kg), y el porcentaje de grasa corporal (-1.1%), mejorando así el porcentaje de lipoproteínas de alta densidad (HDL) (+9.8%) y bajando las lipoproteínas de baja densidad (LDL) (-7.7%) y la hemoglobina glucosilada (HbA1c) (-16%), este último indicador de bienestar de los niveles de glucosa en sangre y en el torrente sanguíneo.…”

. Análisis del entrenamiento resistido en el perfil glicémico: una revisión bibliográfica. Revista Ciencias de la Actividad Física UCM, N° 18(2) julio-diciembre, 1-8. RESUMENLa presente revisión bibliográfica surge de la necesidad de revisar la evidencia sobre el efecto del entrenamiento resistido en el perfil glicémico. La búsqueda de información se realiza en las bases de datos Ebsco, PubMed, Google Académico y Researchgate, restringida a publicaciones de los años 2011 a 2016. Se utilizaron las siguientes palabras clave: Entrenamiento de Resistencia y de control de la diabetes, el Entrenamiento de Resistencia y el control de glucémico, el Entrenamiento de Resistencia y Control de la Salud. Fueron encontrados 841 artículos, a continuación, se excluyeron los artículos que no cumplían con los criterios de inclusión del estudio, de estos 75 fueron excluidos porque no manifestaran el efecto del entrenamiento de resistencia en la glucosa. Finalmente solo 6 estudios fueron seleccionados y analizados para la presente investigación. Los resultados de esta revisión muestran que los métodos de ER, se consideran importantes componentes cuando el objetivo principal es preservar el buen estado de salud, interviniendo positivamente en el perfil glucémico y minimizando los factores de riesgo inherentes a una dieta pobre y estilo de vida sedentario, demostrando que no es sólo el entrenamiento aeróbico el que puede mantener el buen estado de salud. PALABRAS CLAVEEntrenamiento de resistencia, diabetes, perfil glicémico. ABSTRACTThe present literature review arises from the need to review the evidence on the effect of resistance training on the glycemic profile. The search for information is carried out in the Ebsco, PubMed, Google Scholar and Researchgate databases, restricted to publications from the years 2011 to 2016. The following keywords were used: Resistance training and diabetes control, Resistance and glycemic control, Resistance Training and Health Control. 841 articles were found. Then, articles that did not meet the inclusion criteria of the research were excluded, and from those, 75 more were excluded because they did not manifest the effect of resistance training on glucose. Finally, only 6 research studies were selected and analyzed for this investigation. The results of this review show that RT methods are considered important components when the main objective is to maintain good health by positively intervening on the glycemic profile and by minimizing risk factors inherent to a poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle, and therefore demonstrating that it is not just aerobic training that can maintain good health.

“…For recreational gym users, competitive bodybuilders, and athletes attempting to increase lean muscle mass, the recommended resistance training intensity falls within this range [50] and could therefore be recommended for increased performance and consequential hypertrophy. For athletes and those participating in maximal resistance work the recommendation is ambiguous.…”

Caffeine (1, 3, 7-trimethylxanthine) which can be ubiquitously found in energy drinks, sodas, coffee, and supplements, is one of the principal legal drugs consumed worldwide. Caffeine based ergogenic aids are utilized prolifically within training and competition for an ergogenic benefit to enhance sporting performance by both recreational and elite athletes. The evidence of caffeine's ability to enhance endurance performance is well established, however, evidence of an ergogenic benefit for muscular endurance and strength-based tasks is limited. Moreover, the limited evidence for caffeine's ergogenic benefit in muscular endurance and strength is equivocal, and therefore, practical recommendations for the implementation of caffeine supplementation in training and competition for coaches, and practitioners is difficult. Indeed, it is currently not known if, and how caffeine may improve muscular endurance and/or strength based tasks. Variability in the findings could be due to several factors including muscles tested, participant characteristics, exercise protocol, type and dose of caffeine used. This brief review will discuss the current literature relating to the potential efficacy of caffeine to enhance muscular endurance and strength based performance, and provides evidence based recommendations for athletes and coaches to implement. Caffeine's primary mechanistic process likely occurs through the antagonising of adenosine [27]. This process is achieved by caffeine binding to adenosine receptors, reducing adenosine's ability to slow neural activity, reduce arousal, and induce sleep [28]. Further rewards from caffeine's effect on adenosine receptors include enhanced neurotransmitter release, increased firing rates, and amplified spontaneous and evoked potentials [29]. Caffeine has also been shown to alter metabolic substrate utilization [9] and provide enhanced fat oxidation and consequential glycogen sparing [30]. Alterations to pain perception following caffeine supplementation have also been reported [31] most likely due to enhanced secretion of β-endorphins [32]. More specifically to strength performance, possible mechanisms also include increased muscle activation [33], motor unit recruitment [34], and enhanced excitation contraction coupling [35]. KeywordsIt should be noted, that it is beyond the scope of this review to provide a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms of caffeine. The primary purpose of this review is to provide in depth analysis of the evidence relating to the use of caffeine in muscular endurance and strength based exercise, and provide coaches and athletes, at both elite and recreational level, with recommendations for the use of caffeine with regards to muscular strength and muscular endurance. For a complementary, wider-ranged review of all current literature, readers is direct to other published review articles [36,37] and a meta-analysis [38].
