Impact of tele-exercise on quality of life, physical fitness, functional capacity and strength in different adult populations
Effects of an Easily Implemented Physical Exercise Program on the Ventricular Ejection Fraction of Women with Breast Cancer Undergoing Chemotherapy
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer among women, with an incidence of 85-94 per 100,000 people annually in Europe. Despite the increasing incidence of BC, advancements in early detection and novel therapeutic approaches have improved survival rates. However, adjuvant treatments are associated with side effects, including a reduction in the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), which can result in severe cardiac damage and progress t…
Matemática E Cinema Ao Longo De 25 Anos
O trabalho consiste de uma pesquisa com abordagem qualitativa, cujo objetivo é analisar obras cinematográficas que exploram a Matemática em seus enredos. Para isso, buscamos compreender a origem e o desenvolvimento das mídias enquanto ferramentas tecnológicas da informação, com o intuito de remontar ao estabelecimento do cinema como um mecanismo de contação de histórias - reconhecendo também suas funcionalidades. Após buscas refinadas na internet…
Mathematics and Cinema Throughout 25 Years
The paper consists of qualitative research that aims to analyze cinematographic works that explore Mathematics in their plots. To do so, we sought to understand the origin and development of media as information technology tools, in order to trace back the establishment of cinema as a storytelling mechanism - also recognizing its functionalities. After refined searches on the internet, we found 23 movies that feature scientists' concepts and/or s…
Changes in Muscle Thickness after 8 Weeks of Strength Training, Electromyostimulation, and Both Combined in Healthy Young Adults
The aim of this study was to verify and compare the effects of electromyostimulation training (EMS), strength training (ST), and both combined (STEMS), through the analysis of the elbow flexors muscle thickness. Forty subjects (24.45 ± 3.53 years), were randomly divided equally in 4 groups: 3 experimental groups and 1 control group. Each experimental group was submitted to one of three interventions, either an ST protocol, an EMS protocol, or a S…
A Novel Approach to Training Monotony and Acute-Chronic Workload Index
Load is a multifactorial construct, but usually reduced to parameters of volume and intensity. In the last decades, other constructs have been proposed for assessing load, but also relying on relationships between volume and intensity. For example, Foster's Training Monotony has been used in athletes' load management simply by computing mean weekly load divided by its standard deviation, often multiplied by session rate of perceived exertion. Mea…
Are Heart Rate and Rating of Perceived Exertion Effective to Control Indoor Cycling Intensity
Indoor cycling's popularity is related to the combination of music and exercise leading to higher levels of exercise intensity. It was our objective to determine the efficacy of heart rate and rating of perceived exertion in controlling the intensity of indoor cycling classes and to quantify their association with oxygen uptake. Twelve experienced males performed three indoor cycling sessions of 45 min that differed in the way the intensity was c…
