Guo K, Mu T. Comparative Analysis of Adaptive Changes in Immunoendocrine and Physiological Responses to High-Intensity Sprint Interval Training with Progressive and Nonprogressive Loads in Young Wrestlers. J Sports Sci Med 2024; 23:455-464. [PMID: 38841648 PMCID: PMC11149081 DOI: 10.52082/jssm.2024.455] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to explore the effects of a 7-week short sprint interval training (SSIT) with differing in programming volume-loads including progressive (P-SSIT) and nonprogressive (NP-SSIT) approaches on the immunoendocrine, physical fitness attributes and physiological parameters in male wrestlers during the pre-season. Thirty young freestyle wrestlers at the collegiate national-level were included in the study and were divided into three groups: P-SSIT (n = 10), NP-SSIT (n = 10), and an active control group (n = 10). The wrestlers engaged in their specific wrestling training three days weekly, while the P-SSIT and NP-SSIT groups underwent a 7-week SSIT, with scheduling in either progressed or nonprogressed volume-based overloads, three times per week. Before and after the intervention, various aspects of physical fitness (such as 20-m sprint, 4×9-m shuttle run, and maximal strength) and physiological parameters (including cardiorespiratory fitness and anaerobic power output), as well as immunoendocrine responses (such as immunoglobulin-A, testosterone, and cortisol) were measured. Following the training intervention, the control group did not show any significant changes in the variable measured; however, both the P-SSIT and NP-SSIT groups experienced significant improvements (p = 0.001) in physical fitness attributes and physiological parameters with effect sizes ranging from small to very large, and also more adaptive responses compared with control group (p < 0.05). In addition, there were no statistically significant changes observed among the P-SSIT and NP-SSIT groups in terms of immunoendocrine response to training, and physical fitness, as well as physiological parameters (p > 0.05). In conclusion, neither the progressed nor nonprogressed approaches of SSIT demonstrated superior effects on adaptations compared to one another. Therefore, it is recommended for strength and conditioning coaches in wrestling to incorporate both P-SSIT and NP-SSIT into their annual training plan, especially during the pre-season phase, to maximize the physical fitness and physiological parameters of their wrestlers while minimizing changes in immunoendocrine responses.

Sallam NA, Wang B, Laher I. Exercise training and vascular heterogeneity in db/db mice: evidence for regional- and duration-dependent effects. NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2024; 397:2421-2436. [PMID: 37843589 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-023-02775-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
Exercise training (ET) has several health benefits; however, our understanding of regional adaptations to ET is limited. We examined the functional and molecular adaptations to short- and long-term ET in elastic and muscular conduit arteries of db/db mice in relation to changes in cardiovascular risk factors. Diabetic mice and their controls were exercised at moderate intensity for 4 or 8 weeks. The vasodilatory and contractile responses of thoracic aortae and femoral arteries isolated from the same animals were examined. Blood and aortic samples were used to measure hyperglycemia, oxidative stress, inflammation, dyslipidemia, protein expression of SOD isoforms, COX, eNOS, and Akt. Short-term ET improved nitric oxide (NO) mediated vasorelaxation in the aortae and femoral arteries of db/db mice in parallel with increased SOD2 and SOD3 expression, reduced oxidative stress and triglycerides, and independent of weight loss, glycemia, or inflammation. Long-term ET reduced body weight in parallel with reduced systemic inflammation and improved insulin sensitivity along with increased SOD1, Akt, and eNOS expression and improved NO vasorelaxation. Exercise did not restore NOS- and COX-independent vasodilatation in femoral arteries, nor did it mitigate the hypercontractility in the aortae of db/db mice; rather ET transiently increased contractility in association with upregulated COX-2. Long-term ET differentially affected the aortae and femoral arteries contractile responses. ET improved NO-mediated vasodilation in both arteries likely due to collective systemic effects. ET did not mitigate all diabetes-induced vasculopathies. Optimization of the ET regimen can help develop comprehensive management of type 2 diabetes.

Effect of High-Intensity Interval Exercise versus Continuous Low-Intensity Aerobic Exercise with Blood Flow Restriction on Psychophysiological Responses: A Randomized Crossover Study. J Sports Sci Med 2024; 23:114-125. [PMID: 38455431 PMCID: PMC10915608 DOI: 10.52082/jssm.2024.114] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
This study compared the effect of continuous low-intensity aerobic exercise with blood flow restriction (LI-AE-BFR) versus high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE), matching total external mechanical work between conditions, on perceptual (exertion, pain, affective and pleasure) and physiological responses (heart rate [HR], blood lactate [BL] and muscle fatigue). Ten healthy untrained men (25.6 ± 3.78 years old; 75.02 ± 12.02 kg; 172.2 ± 6.76 cm; 24.95 ± 3.16 kg/m²) completed three visits to the laboratory. In visit 1, anthropometry, blood pressure and peak running velocity on the treadmill were measured. In visits 2 and 3, participants were randomly assigned to HIIE or LI-AE-BFR, both in treadmill. HIIE consisted of 10 one-minute stimuli at 80% of peak running velocity interspersed with one-minute of passive recovery. LI-AE-BFR consisted of 20-minutes of continuous walking at 40% of peak running velocity with bilateral cuffs inflated to 50% of arterial occlusion pressure. BL and maximum isometric voluntary contraction (MIVC - fatigue measure) were measured pre- and immediately post-exercise. HR, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and rating of perceived pain (RPP) were recorded after each stimulus in HIIE and every two minutes in LI-AE-BFR. Affective response to the session, pleasure, and future intention to exercise (FIE) were assessed 10 minutes after the intervention ended. Increases in BL concentrations were greater in HIIE (p = 0.028; r = 0.51). No effects time or condition were reported for MIVC. HR was higher in HIIE at all analyzed time points (p < 0.001; d = 3.1 to 5.2). RPE did not differ between conditions (p > 0.05), while average session RPP was higher in LI-AE-BFR (p = 0.036; r = 0.46). Affective positive response (p = 0.019; d = 0.9) and FIE (p = 0.013; d = 0.97) were significantly higher in HIIE. Therefore, HIIE elicited higher physiological stress, positive affective response, and intention to engage in future exercise bouts compared to LI-AE-BFR.

Impact of a 4-week intensive track and field training intervention on glycaemia in adolescents with type 1 diabetes: The ChilDFiT1 study. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024; 26:631-641. [PMID: 37985360 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15352] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
AIM To investigate the safety and efficacy of track and field training compared with intensification of insulin treatment only in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D). MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighteen adolescents (seven females) with T1D were included (age 15.1 ± 1.1 years, HbA1c 7.3% ± 1.0% [56.3 ± 10.9 mmol/mol]). After a 4-week observational control phase, participants were randomized to either stand-alone intensive glycaemic management (IT; telemedicine or on-site visits, three times/week) or additionally performed track and field exercise (EX; three 60-minute sessions/week) for 4 weeks. Glycaemia was assessed via continuous glucose monitoring during observational control and intervention phases. RESULTS Time in range (70-180 mg/dL; 3.9-10.0 mmol/L) significantly improved from the observational control phase to the exercise intervention phase in EX (69% ± 13% vs. 72% ± 11%, P = .049), but not in IT (59% ± 22% vs. 62% ± 16%, P = .399). Time below range 1 (54-69 mg/dL; < 3.9 mmol/L) improved in IT (3.1% ± 1.9% vs. 2.0% ± 0.8%, P = .017) and remained stable in EX (2.0% ± 1.7 vs. 1.9% ± 1.1%, P = .999). The EX group's HbA1c ameliorated preintervention to postintervention (mean difference: ΔHbA1c -0.19% ± 0.17%, P = .042), which was not seen within the IT group (ΔHbA1c -0.16% ± 0.37%, P = .40). Glucose standard deviation was reduced significantly in EX (55 ± 11 vs. 51 ± 10 mg/dL [3.1 ± 0.6 vs. 2.8 ± 0.6 mmol/L], P = .011), but not in IT (70 ± 24 vs. 63 ± 18 mg/dL [3.9 ± 1.3 vs. 3.5 ± 1.0 mmol/L], P = .186). CONCLUSION Track and field training combined with intensive glycaemic management improved glycaemia in adolescents with T1D, which was not observed in the non-exercise group.

Halle JL, Counts BR, Zhang Q, Carson JA. Short duration treadmill exercise improves physical function and skeletal muscle mitochondria protein expression after recovery from FOLFOX chemotherapy in male mice. FASEB J 2022; 36:e22437. [PMID: 35816153 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202200460r] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2022] [Revised: 06/10/2022] [Accepted: 06/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
FOLFOX (5-FU, leucovorin, oxaliplatin) is a chemotherapy treatment for colorectal cancer which induces toxic side effects involving fatigue, weakness, and skeletal muscle dysfunction. There is a limited understanding of the recovery from these toxicities after treatment cessation. Exercise training can improve chemotherapy-related toxicities. However, how exercise accelerates recovery and the dose required for these benefits are not well examined. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of exercise duration on physical function, muscle mass, and mitochondria protein expression during the recovery from FOLFOX chemotherapy. 12-week-old male mice were administered four cycles of either PBS or FOLFOX over 8-weeks. Outcomes were assessed after the fourth cycle and after either 4 (short-term; STR) or 10 weeks (long-term; LTR) recovery. Subsets of mice performed 14 sessions (6 d/wk, 18 m/min, 5% grade) of 60 min/d (long) or 15 min/d (short duration) treadmill exercise during STR. Red and white gastrocnemius mRNA and protein expression were examined. FOLFOX treatment decreased run time (RT) (-53%) and grip strength (GS) (-9%) compared to PBS. FOLFOX also reduced muscle OXPHOS complexes, COXIV, and VDAC protein expression. At LTR, FOLFOX RT (-36%) and GS (-16%) remained reduced. Long- and short-duration treadmill exercise improved RT (+58% and +56%) without restoring GS in FOLFOX mice. Both exercise durations increased muscle VDAC and COXIV expression in FOLFOX mice. These data provide evidence that FOLFOX chemotherapy induces persistent deficits in physical function that can be partially reversed by short-duration aerobic exercise.

Effects of Different Durations at Fixed Intensity Exercise on Internal Load and Recovery-A Feasibility Pilot Study on Duration as an Independent Variable for Exercise Prescription. J Funct Morphol Kinesiol 2022; 7:jfmk7030054. [PMID: 35893328 PMCID: PMC9326728 DOI: 10.3390/jfmk7030054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Duration is a rarely investigated marker of exercise prescription. The aim of this study was to test the feasibility of the methodological approach, assessing effects of different duration constant-load exercise (CLE) on physiological responses (internal load) and recovery kinetics. Seven subjects performed an incremental exercise (IE) test, one maximal duration CLE at 77.6 ± 4.8% V˙O2max, and CLE's at 20%, 40%, and 70% of maximum duration. Heart rate (HR), blood lactate (La), and glucose (Glu) concentrations were measured. Before, 4, 24, and 48 h after CLE's, submaximal IE tests were performed. HR variability (HRV) was assessed in orthostatic tests (OT). Rating of perceived exertion (RPE) was obtained during all tests. CLE's were performed at 182 ± 27 W. HRpeak, Lapeak, V˙Epeak, and RPEpeak were significantly higher in CLE's with longer duration. No significant differences were found between CLE's for recovery kinetics for HR, La, and Glu in the submaximal IE and for HRV or OT. Despite no significant differences, recovery kinetics were found as expected, indicating the feasibility of the applied methods. Maximum tests and recovery tests closer to CLE's termination are suggested to better display recovery kinetics. These findings are a first step to prescription of exercise by both intensity and duration on an individual basis.
