Is Standing Long Jump Performance More Strongly Associated with Health-Related Outcomes than Maximal Isometric Handgrip Strength in Adolescents
SLJ appears to be a more sensitive and consistent indicator of health-related outcomes in adolescents than MIHS. These findings support the use of SLJ as a practical, low-cost, and easily implementable tool for health and fitness screening in school and community settings
The winter is coming: Seasonal variations in BDNF levels among older adults in a high-latitude region — a preliminary study
In this small longitudinal cohort, winter was associated with a reduction in plasma BDNF in older adults, independent of baseline cognition and anxiety. These results require replication in larger samples
Effects of active exergames on physical performance in older people: An overview of systematic reviews and meta-analysis
This overview assessed the available body of published peer-reviewed systematic reviews and meta-analyses related to the effects of active exergames compared with active/passive control on physical performance outcomes in older people. The methodological quality and certainty of evidence were assessed using PRISMA, AMSTAR 2, and GRADE. The protocol was registered in PROSPERO (code: CRD42023391694). The main outcomes indicate that 4,477 records, f…
Impact of adapted taekwondo vs. multicomponent training on health status in independent older women: A randomized controlled trial
This study, called the TKD and Aging Project, aimed to analyze and compare the effects of an adapted taekwondo program concerning multicomponent training on blood pressure, morphological variables, food consumption frequency, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), physical fitness, handgrip strength, and postural balance in independent older women. A randomized controlled trial study was conducted with parallel groups for 8 weeks (24 sessions of…
Validity and Reliability of Short-Term Heart Rate Variability Parameters in Older People in Response to Physical Exercise
Our results provide moderate to strong evidence for using HRV to measure cardiac autonomic response to moderate exercise, suggesting that it is sufficiently reliable to show similar results to those shown in this test-retest protocol
Effectiveness of elastic band training and group-based dance on physical-functional performance in older women with sarcopenia: A pilot study
Elastic band training produces significantly greater responses on physical-functional performance regarding group-based dance in older women with sarcopenia. On the other hand, the EBG revealed a significant improvement in fat-free mass and upper and lower limb muscle strength, as well as a significant decrease time in TUG, and walking speed. Elastic band exercise is a safe, easy, affordable, and effective physical activity strategy, according to…
Factors Associated with Poor Health-Related Quality of Life in Physically Active Older People
This study aimed to associate morphological variables and physical fitness with health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in physically active older people. A cross-sectional study was carried out that evaluated 470 older people (89.57% female) with a mean age of 70.13 ± 6.57 years, residing in two regions of Chile. Morphological variables (body weight, bipedal height, waist circumference, body mass index, and waist to height ratio), physical fitnes…
Warm-Up and Handgrip Strength in Physically Inactive Chilean Older Females According to Baseline Nutritional Status
This study aims to analyze the effect of different types of warm-ups on handgrip strength (HGS) in physically inactive older females. Secondarily, it aims to compare HGS according to their baseline nutritional status. A randomized crossover trial study was conducted with 44 physically inactive older females distributed into normal weight (n = 12, BMI = 23.9 ± 3.2 kg/m 2 ), overweight (n =16, BMI = 27 ± 4.7 kg/m 2 ) and obese (n = 16, BMI = 31.6 ±…
