“…Higher levels of physical fitness have been shown to be associated with higher self-rated health (Shirom et al, 2008), as well as a lower risk of suffering from all-cause and cardiovascular-related mortality at all ages, even amongst otherwise healthy individuals (Blair et al, 1995). It is known that exercise, alcohol consumption, and smoking are important predictors of physical fitness (Marti et al, 1988). Relatively little, however, is known about the relationship between physical fitness and early-life conditions.…”

“…Tal estudo demonstrou que o número de anos de prática da corrida foi inversamente relacionado às lesões e que a prevalência das mesmas parece estar mais relacionada à falta de adaptação musculoesquelética ou progressão de carga inadequada 1,9 . No entanto, noutros estudos foi demonstrado que o tempo de prática da corrida aumenta a prevalência de lesões.…”

“…O interesse científico na literatura internacional não tem se restringido exclusivamente aos corredores de elite, mas também às pessoas com atividade de treinamento moderado, denominados, corredores amadores. Resultados de investigações com corredores de alto nível de longa distância não podem ser inteiramente aplicáveis à grande massa de corredores, que representa 90-95% dos participantes das corridas de rua 1 . Já é bastante documentado na literatura que a prática da corrida de longa duração traz uma série de benefícios aos praticantes, tanto físicos, quanto mentais 2,3 , porém existem algumas implicações negativas 4,5 .…”

CorrEdorEs dE rua: CaraCtErístiCas dEmográfiCas, trEinamEnto E prEvalênCia dE lEsõEs RECREATIONAL ROAD RUNNERS: INJURIES, TRAINING, DEMOGRAPHICS AND PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICSrEsumo O objetivo deste estudo foi: identifi car características físicas, demográfi cas, de treinamento e a prevalência de lesões musculares/osteoarticulares em corredores de rua amadores. Verifi car também o grau de associação entre lesões com a idade, freqüência do treinamento diário e semanal, distância percorrida por semana, orientação especializada, prática de outra atividade física e tempo de prática da corrida. Além disso, mediu-se o perímetro da cintura, massa corporal e estatura e, assim, também se determinou o índice de massa corporal (IMC) dos corredores. O grupo estudado foi composto por 115 homens, participantes de provas realizadas em Santa Catarina, no ano de 2006: 22ª Maratona de Blumenau e 5º Desafi o Praias e Trilhas (Florianópolis). A estatística descritiva e o teste do Qui-quadrado foram utilizados para caracterização do grupo e para verifi car a associação da prevalência de lesões com as variáveis estudadas, tendo como referência p<0,05. Os corredores de rua apresentaram as seguintes características: 63,2% com idade entre 18-50 anos e 36,8% acima de 50 anos; 24,3% cursaram ensino fundamental, 35,4% o ensino médio e 40% o superior; a renda familiar de R$ 300-999 (23,3%), 45,2% entre R$ 1000-2900 e 31,3% maior de R$ 3000; 72% corriam regularmente há mais de seis anos e 57% recebiam orientação especializada; 56,5% corriam mais de 64 km por semana. A prevalência de lesões no período de um ano foi de 37,7%; os valores médios de IMC e perímetro da cintura estavam adequados à saúde. Não foi encontrada associação signifi cativa entre a prevalência de lesões e as outras variáveis analisadas. palavras-chave:Lesão; Antropometria; Atleta; Treinamento. aBstraCtThe purpose of this study was to study recreational road runners in order to identify: their physical characteristics, demographics, running profi le (training distance, frequency, duration, and experience) and the prevalence of injuries and their association with age, running profi le, and other sports practiced. Body mass, height (from which BMI was calculated) and waist circumference were also measured. The sample of runners was composed of 115 men who participated in two events organized in Santa Catarina State, Brazil, in 2006: 22 nd Maratona de Blumenau and 5 th Desafi o Praias e Trilhas (Florianópolis). The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and the chi-square test to identify associations between injury prevalence and other variables (p<.05). The majority of the runners were aged between 18 and 50 years (63.2%), with 36.8% older than 50 years. In terms of educational level 24.3% had attended only elementary school, 35.4% high school, and 40% degree courses. Monthly family income (based on Brazilian minimum wage in Reais -R$ 380.00) varied between R$ 300 and R$ 999 for 23.3% of the runners, between R$ 1000 and R$ 2900 for 45.2%, and above R$ 3000 for 31.3% of ...

“…Some crosssectional studies show that cigarette smoking is correlated with cardiovascular fitness [17][18][19]. Hirsch et al [17] evaluated the immediate effects of cigarette smoking on aerobic exercise capacity, and cigarette smoking resulted in a significantly lower _ VO 2 max and higher heart rate after 3 cigarettes/h for 5 h. Marti et al [18] reported that, among army conscripts, the distance covered in a 12-min endurance run was inversely related to daily cigarette consumption and years of smoking. Rotstein et al [19] also reported that smoking retards physiological responses to submaximal exercise immediately after smoking three cigarettes.…”

The link between cigarette smoking and ventilatory threshold (VT) was investigated. We used data for 407 men and 418 women not taking medication. Habits of cigarette smoking were obtained through interviews by well-trained staff. The influence of cigarette smoking on oxygen uptake, work rate, and heart rate at VT was evaluated. Oxygen uptake at VT in women and work rate at VT in men with cigarette smoking were significantly lower than in subjects without cigarette smoking after adjusting for age. The differences of parameters at VT did not reach significant levels after adjusting for age and exercise habits in both sexes. However, in women without exercise habits, there was significant difference of oxygen uptake at VT between women with and without cigarette smoking after adjusting for age [cigarette smoking (?): 11.5 ± 1.8 ml/ kg/min, cigarette smoking (-): 12.4 ± 2.1 ml/kg/min, p = 0.0006]. The number of cigarettes smoked per day and the Brinkman Index were not clearly correlated with oxygen uptake at VT. A combination of promoting exercise habits and prohibiting cigarette smoking might be recommended for improving the aerobic exercise level, especially in women.
