▼ Clinical movement screens have become increasingly popular in strength and conditioning programs designed for the tactical athlete. Whereas conventionally administered movement screens are largely not sensitive to behaviors which impact soldierrelevant physical performance, recent evidence suggests that modified screens which incorporate external load-bearing strengthen the relationship between movement behaviors and performance outcomes. It remains unclear, however, which mechanisms may account for this improvement in association. Physical performance is considered a multidimensional construct influenced by several independent factors. Among the factors which influence military physical performance, movement screens may require high levels of strength, balance, and range of motion. This project used penalized interaction models to determine the role of strength, balance, and range of motion in modifying the effects of external load bearing on movement quality and movement. Additional confirmatory analyses examined differences in the abilities of FMS item scores to predict physical performance outcomes when those scores were obtained during control vs. external load-bearing conditions. Results suggest that the effect of load on movement complexity is modified by strength, balance, and range of motion whereas the effect on clinically rated movement quality is modified by only balance and range of motion. While the direction of the observed effects did not always coincide with our hypotheses, the present findings mirror those of previous research with respect to differential validity of weighted vs. control FMS item scores in predicting criterion performance measures.

▼ Context: Adolescent female athletes are at a 4-6 times
greater risk for an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury than
male adolescent athletes. Most ACL injuries occur during a
non-contact mechanism while decelerating and/or changing direction.
Previous research uses unanticipated cutting tasks to recreate
realistic scenarios that show an increased load on the ACL when the
task is unplanned. Biomechanical and neuromuscular factors can be
modified for the athlete to be better prepared for the high demands
placed on the knee. Identifying deficits in female athletes during
unanticipated cutting maneuvers can contribute to improving
mechanics at the knee and work to prevent ACL injuries. Objective:
To determine differences in knee biomechanics during an anticipated
and unanticipated sidestep cutting task through trunk, hip, knee,
and ankle kinematics and kinetics. Study Design: Cross-over study.
Setting: Laboratory. Participants: 10 healthy high school female
athletes. Inclusion: Healthy with no lower extremity injury in the
past six months or cleared by physician. Exclusion: History of ACL
injury or repair, previous injury to ankle, hip, or knee in past 6
months, and any vestibular or balance disorders. Intervention:
Participant will run 6 m at a speed of 3.5-5.0 m/s toward a force
plate to perform either an anticipated or unanticipated sidestep
cut or crossover cut. Main Outcome Measures: Kinematic data was
assessed using a 12 camera 3D analysis. Kinetic data was assessed
using an in-ground force plate. A time series analysis was
conducted on the data. Results: No significant differences were
found for the frontal plane, sagittal plane, or ground reaction
forces for kinematics or kinetics. Conclusion: The data shows a
trend that the female athletes were in a more at risk position of
sustaining an ACL injury during the unanticipated task compared to
the anticipated task.

▼ In the learning and cognitive fields it has been well established that a two-way interaction between instructor and participant is more beneficial for learning. Within Motor Control and Learning, this process comes to fruition through what is known as self-controlled practice. The purpose of this study is to determine how goals influence the process of self-controlled practice. It was hypothesized that there will be a difference in learning between the self-controlled group (SC) and a yoked group (Y) as well as a difference in learning between the SC groups with respect to timing goal. One hundred and twenty young adults participated in this experiment. Participants in the self-control group were provided control over the amount of practice trials they completed during practice while participants in the yoked group received the same amount of practice trials as the individuals in the self-control group. Additionally, self-control participants were grouped according to timing goals. Error score measures were collected to assess changes in performance. Results indicated partial confirmation of differences due to stringency of the timing goal, as well as, no differences between self-control and yoked groups.

▼ Ergogenic aides are widely used by fitness enthusiast and athletes to increase performance. Alpha Glycerylphosphorylcholine (A-GPC) has demonstrated some initial promise in changing explosive performance. The purpose of the present investigation was to determine if 6 days of supplementation with A-GPC would augment isometric force production compared to a placebo. Thirteen college aged males (Means ± SD; Age: 21.9 ± 2.2 yrs, Height: 180.3 ± 7.7 cm, Weight: 87.6 ± 15.6 kg; VO2 max: 40.08 ± 7.23 ml O2*Kg-1*min-1, Body Fat: 17.5 ± 4.6 %) gave written informed consent to participate in the study. The study was a double blind placebo controlled, cross-over design. The participants reported to the lab for an initial visit where they were familiarized with the isometric mid-thigh pull in a custom squat cage on a force platform and upper body isometric test against a high frequency load cell, and baseline measurements were taken for both. The participant then consumed either 600 mg per day of A-GPC or placebo, and at the end of 6 days, performed isometric mid-thigh pull and an upper body isometric test. A one week washout period was used before the participants baseline was re-measured and crossed over to the other treatment. The A-GPC treatment resulted in significantly greater isometric mid-thigh pull peak force change from baseline (t= 1.76, p=0.044) compared with placebo (A-GPC: 98.8.±236.9N vs Placebo: -39.0±170.9N). For the upper body test, the A- GPC treatment trended towards greater change from baseline force production (A-GPC: 50.9±167.2N Placebo: -14.9±114.9N), but failed to obtain statistical significance (t=1.16, p=0.127). The study found that A-GPC is effective at increasing lower body force production after 6 days of supplementation. Sport performance coaches can consider adding A-GPC to the diet of speed and power athletes to enhance muscle performance.

▼ Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NALFD) is characterized as excessive lipid accumulation in the liver in the absence of excessive alcohol consumption. NAFLD is generally considered benign; however, at an undefined threshold, lipid accumulation becomes toxic; i.e., lipotoxic, triggering an inflammatory response progressing to steatohepatitis or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Currently, pharmaceutical interventions provide limited benefits for the treatment of NAFLD and NASH. Lifestyle modifications such as caloric restriction and increasing physical activity to promote weight-loss may provide a more effective therapeutic approach. It remains unclear; however, if a negative caloric balance induced by diet alone or in combination with physical activity is the most effective strategy for reducing hepatic inflammation during weight-loss. <b> Purpose:</b> To determine if weight-loss by caloric restriction when combined with unrestricted physical activity will show lower expression of hepatic inflammation in obese, male C57BL/6 mice when compared to diet alone. <b> Methods:</b> To induce obesity, 8-week old, male C57BL/6 mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) (60% kcal from fat) for 10 weeks. An age-matched group of male mice were fed a low-fat diet (LFD) (10% kcal from fat) for the entire 18 weeks of the study, which served as the lean controls. After 10-weeks, mice fed the high-fat diet were randomly assigned to one of three groups for 8-weeks: 1) a high-fat diet , 2) a low-fat diet (DIET) (10% kcal from fat) or 3) a low-fat diet plus <i>ad libitum</i> access to a running wheel (DIET+PA). At the end of the 8 weeks, mice were sacrificed using approved humane methods and plasma and hepatic tissue were collected. Plasma was analyzed for circulating concentrations of total cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose, insulin, interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). The degree of insulin resistance was estimated using the vi homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Hepatic total lipids, triglycerides, and cholesterol were measured to characterize the degree of lipotoxicity in the tissue. To determine changes in the inflammatory profile of the liver, the expression of hepatic levels of interleukin 1 β(IL-1β), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interferon gamma (IFN-γ), and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) mRNA were measured by quantitative RT-PCR. <b>Results:</b> DIET+PA mice had significantly (P<0.05) lower body mass and hepatic triglyceride and cholesterol levels than the LFD, HFD, and DIET groups. The addition of exercise in the DIET+PA group lead to significantly (P<0.05) lower expression of IFN-γ mRNA when compared to HFD mice. These positive changes in hepatic inflammatory profiles were not seen with diet alone. In addition DIET+PA mice had significantly higher expression of IL-6 mRNA and IL-1β in the liver than HFD mice. <b>Conclusion:</b> The addition of exercise to…

▼ Recently, Canada endured an economic
recession where various industries and sectors were affected by the
altering economic environment. The purpose of this study is to
examine the impact the 2008 recession had on youth sport programs
offered by the public and voluntary sectors with respect to
participation rates and the manner by which the sport organizations
dealt with potential consequences. Thirteen semi-structured
interviews were conducted with managers or board members of
community sport programs in London, Ontario (Canada). The results
indicate that the recession had no impact on the overall
participation rates for the sports that were examined. However,
underlying processes caused shifts in participation patterns (e.g.,
higher attraction to lower cost programs). Individuals in higher
socioeconomic brackets were less impacted. An increase was seen in
the usage of existing subsidy programs. Organizations developed
various business strategies, (e.g., freezing prices), to minimize
the impact of the recession.

▼ Yoga has become a popular alternative to
traditional exercise regimes and many therapies to enhance physical
and psychological well-being. Many yoga studios and health clubs
now offer hot yoga in addition to regular yoga where the room
temperature is elevated before the yoga practice begins. There are
many anecdotal benefits to practicing hot yoga but any
physiological adaptations have yet to be documented in the
scientific literature. Novice and beginner yoga practitioners, 10
males and 21 females, aged 19-33 years were randomized to either an
8 week trial of Hatha yoga performed under normal temperatures
(n=15) or hot yoga (n=16). For the normal temperature yoga and hot
yoga, 3 and 4 participants, respectively, were lost to drop out.
All participants attended 80 minute yoga classes at a local studio
3 times per week and several physiological and psychological
outcomes were evaluated at baseline, at 4 weeks, and at the end of
trial, including: body mass index (BMI), body composition (BF%),
systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP, DBP), flexibility, peak
oxygen consumption, Beck Depression Inventory, and State Trait
Anxiety Inventory. Participants' heart rates and temperatures were
monitored during weekly yoga classes to assess cardiovascular
intensity of yoga as exercise. Hot yoga participants worked at a
significantly higher cardiovascular intensity (61.0▒2.0 versus
48.2▒1.8 percent of their maximum recorded HR respectively,
p<0.05). Further, participants in the hot yoga group spent more
time at greater than 60%, 70% and 80% of their maximum heart rate
throughout the exercise period (p<0.05). For all training
groups, improvements were seen in body composition and flexibility,
but there were no differences between groups. Further, mean SBP
decreased by 5.8 ▒12.5 mmHg after 4 weeks of yoga training and
remained reduced at the end of 8 weeks (p<0.05). There was a
significant improvement in trait anxiety levels and depression
scores. These observations suggest that there are no additional
psychological or physiological benefits gained by hot yoga
training, but more importantly, there are several health benefits
of engaging in regular yoga practice.

▼ In a recent report, Canadian children
received an overall "F" grade in Physical Activity Level (AHK,
2010). Contributing to this failing grade is a lack of time spent
engaging in physically active play. As imagery has proven to be an
effective motivational tool in the exercise setting (e.g.,
Hausenblas et al., 1999), the present study sought to qualitatively
investigate children's use of active play imagery. Using
self-determination theory as a motivational framework, gender
differences were also examined. One hundred and four children aged
7-14 years (n= 48 male; n= 56 female) participated in focus group
discussions guided by three basic psychological needs (i.e.,
autonomy, competence, and relatedness) proposed within basic needs
theory (Deci & Ryan, 2000). Thematic analysis resulted in three
hierarchical trees revealing children's use of active play imagery
as it satisfies the three basic needs. Several gender differences
were also noted at the lower levels of
analysis.

▼ Caffeine is a commonly used substance by
athletes and has become more widespread since it's legalization by
the World Anti Doping Association (WADA) and the International
Olympic Committee (IOC). Extensive research has been done on the
effect of caffeine on exercise performance, however, most studies
were done at low intensity, and none compared differences in
performance between men and women. Thus, 18 university aged (9 men
and 9 women) individuals were recruited to perform three 20km
cycling time trials including a familiarization trial (FAM), a
carbohydrate plus placebo condition (CHO+P) and carbohydrate plus
caffeine (5mg/kg) condition (CHO+C). Time to complete the 20km
distance was significantly decreased in the CHO+C trial compared to
the CHO+P trial in both men and women. This was concomitant with an
increase in post-exercise blood glucose levels in the CHO+C trial
but not in the CHO+P trial. However, ratings of perceived exertion
(RER), respiratory exchange ratio (RER), tympanic temperature and a
novel measure of arousal (long term excitement, LTE) were not
different between trials. It is concluded that caffeine can improve
performance when combined carbohydrate over carbohydrate alone.
Moreover, these performance improvements are not different between
sexes. Of the subjective (RPE), physiological (HR, RER) and
excitement (LTE) variables that were measured, it is unclear why
caffeine had this effect. Nonetheless, these findings are
intriguing, especially for those athletes looking to gain an
advantage in activity that requires intense work over the span of
20-35min, as well as WADA in their decisions to examine the use of
caffeine during competition. Caffeine is currently a legal
ergogenic aid and these data add to the significant body of
literature indicating its powerful ergogenic properties in many
activities.

▼ Sauna bathing improves heart rate variability
(HRV), resting blood pressure (BP), fasting plasma glucose (FPG)
and body composition in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF)
and diabetes, and benefits depressed patients. Sauna bathing
elicits similar physiological responses to exercise, including
increases in core temperature, sweating, heart rate and skin blood
flow. Exercise training decreases cardiovascular and metabolic
disease morbidity and mortality rates. Despite these benefits, only
50.9% of Windsor-Essex County is moderately physically active.
Further, reduced aerobic fitness, BP, FPG, body composition, etc.
occur with age. As such, it is of interest to examine whether sauna
bathing as a form of passive heating prevents the onset of
cardiovascular and metabolic disease by improving health markers in
middle aged adults. To examine this question, we recruited 5
healthy, sedentary to moderately active middle-aged participants to
undergo sauna bathing 5 times per week for 2 weeks. The sauna
intervention consisted of a 15 minute dry sauna exposure at
approximately 60░C followed by 30 minutes of covered rest. Resting
HR and BP, HRV, body composition, blood lipids (TC, HDL, LDL, TRG),
FPG, hematocrit (HCT) and state trait anxiety (STAI) were measured
at baseline, following two weeks of normal activity and following
two weeks of daily sauna bathing. Tympanic temperature was measured
during each sauna exposure and showed a significant increase
following the 15 minute sauna bath (p<.001). Resting HR, BP,
HRV, body composition, STAI, blood lipids, and FPG were unchanged
following two weeks of sauna use (p>.05). HCT increased
following two weeks of sauna use (p<.05). These results suggest
that daily dry sauna bathing with a concomitant 1.9 ▒ 0.6 ░C
tympanic temperature increase does not improve markers of
cardiovascular, metabolic and psychological health among generally
healthy middle-aged adults.

▼ Athlete leadership has been defined as an
athlete occupying a formal or informal role within the team, who
influences a group of team members towards achieving a common goal
(Loughead et al., 2006). The purpose of the present study was to
examine whether an athlete's leadership status (i.e., formal
athlete leader, informal athlete leader, athlete non-leader)
moderated the leadership behavior to cohesion relationship.
Overall, four moderation results were found. The relationship
between Positive Feedback and ATG-T, ATG-S, and GI-T differed
between informal athlete leaders and athlete non-leaders. In
addition, Positive Feedback to GI-T differed between formal athlete
leaders and athlete non-leaders. In all cases, the relationship
between Positive Feedback and cohesion was in a positive direction
for athlete leaders, and in a negative direction for athlete
non-leaders. For all other relationships, no differences were found
between leadership statuses, indicating a sense of shared
leadership amongst teammates. Practical implications of these
results are discussed.

▼ The purpose of the present study was to
investigate the applicabilityof the exerciser stereotype in a
female weight training population, in addition to the influence of
gender and impression motivation on ratings of physical and
personality characteristics. Two hundred and fifty one participants
(M
age = 19.94)
read a vignette describing one of four female weight trainer
targets (typical, excessive, non-weight trainer, or control), then
rated the target on physical and personality characteristics before
completing itemsfrom the Self-Presentation in Exercise
Questionnaire - modified for weight training (SPEQ-WT; Gammage,
Munroe-Chandler, & Hall, 2005). Results indicated a significant
main effect (ps < .05) for one
personality, and four physical characteristics. However,
participant gender and impression motivation did not influence
ratings (ps > .05). The findings
provide evidence of self-presentational advantages for female
weight trainers, though future research should examine the
influence ofthese significant characteristics on both weight
trainers and observers.

▼ The Cornerstones Performance Model of
Refereeing identifies psychological skills as key in optimizing
refereeing performance (Mascarenhas et al., 2005). The present
study examined the psychological skills most frequently utilized by
basketball officials, as well as differences between high (varsity
college or higher) and low (high school or lower) level officials
and gender. Participants included 513 male (n = 450) and female (n
= 58) basketball officials who completed the Test of Performance
Strategies Questionnaire (Thomas et al., 1999). Officials reported
using psychological skills most to maintain their emotional control
and least to help them relax. There was a significant difference in
level of officiating, (F(2, 507) = 2.22, p < .05, τ2 = .03),
with higher level officials reporting higher frequency of
self-talk, automaticity, and imagery. An overall gender effect was
also found (F(2, 507) = 2.89, p < .01, τ2 = .04), with female
officials reporting a higher frequency of self-talk and
automaticity. The implications of these results are
discussed.

▼ The purpose of the present study was to
examine the influence of gender on athlete leader and coach
leadership behaviours. Two hundred and four athlete leaders (Mage =
21.18) completed the Leadership Scale for Sports (Chelladurai &
Saleh, 1980) evaluating their own and their coach's leadership
behaviours. Athlete leaders were grouped into one of three
coach-athlete leader dyads based on the gender of their coach: male
coach-male athlete leader, male coach-female athlete leader, and
female coach-female athlete leader. Results indicated that
regardless of coach-athlete leader dyad, coaches and athlete leader
behaviours differed with coaches using more Training and
Instruction. In contrast, athlete leaders used more Social Support,
Positive Feedback, and Democratic Behaviour compared to coaches.
Additionally, it was found that the gender of athlete leaders did
not influence their use of leadership behaviours. Findings provide
evidence that athlete leader behaviours are consistent across
gender and support the notion that coaches and athlete leaders
provide different amounts of leadership behaviours to their
teams.

▼ Sport is one avenue through which positive
youth development (PYD) can occur (Jones et al., 2011). While some
aspects about sport participation are positive, structural issues
and registration cut-off dates may detract from positive
development. The relative age effect (RAE) suggests that athletes
born in the first two quartiles of a given selection year
experience a selection advantage and therefore a greater
opportunity for success. The purpose of the present study was to
examine the relationship between relative age and dropout rates of
Ontario Minor Hockey Association male ice-hockey players from ages
10 to 15 years (n=14,325). From chi-square analyses, it appears
that dropout was highest amongst players born in quartiles three
and four [χ
2(3) = 12.85, p <
.05; w = .03]. The over-representation of dropouts in the
relatively younger players represents an important finding in youth
ice-hockey research that has not previously been systemically
examined by researchers.

▼ Within team sport, cohesion is not only
associated with group level outcomes such as performance but also
with individual outcomes, which may include a sense of protection
and security. These benefits of group membership are related to
reduced levels of anxiety associated with self-presentational
concerns (Carron, Estabrooks, Horton, Prapavessis, &
Hausenblas, 1999), which are inherent in sport competition (Leary,
1992). The purpose of this study was to examine how
self-presentational concerns are predicted by perceptions of
cohesion. It was hypothesized that high cohesion would be
associated with low self-presentational concerns. A total of 163
competitive team sport athletes completed the Group Environment
Questionnaire (GEQ: Carron, Widmeyer, & Brawley, 1985),
Self-presentation in Sport Questionnaire (SPSQ; Wilson &
Eklund, 1998), and the Sport Anxiety Scale (SAS; Smith, Smoll,
& Shutz, 1990). Structural Equation Modeling determined that
perceptions of cohesion (R= -.20) significantly predicted 4% of the
variance of self-presentation in sport.

▼ According to the Centers for Disease Control, 33.9% of U.S. adults are overweight and 35.1% are obese. Individuals with the highest rates of overweight and obesity are African Americans (48%) followed by Latinos (43%), who in many cases are also underserved. Regular physical activity and proper nutrition have many health benefits; however, overweight and obese undeserved individuals may not be aware of the available resources, nor have the financial means to partake in quality fitness and nutrition programing. Kinesiology and Nutrition students, on the other hand, have limited opportunities to provide fitness and nutrition programming to underserved communities while developing their well-being, character, and leadership strengths. Because of the dual-natured need, the Beach Community Wellness Program (BCWP) was created. The BCWP is a free fitness and nutrition intervention program taught by CSULB Kinesiology and Nutrition students. The program is offered to underserved citizens in the North Long Beach area. The purpose of this project was to provide a comprehensive synopsis of the BCWP that focuses on: 1) the design and implementation of BCWP; and 2) the program’s effects from both the adults and student perspectives.

▼ Objective: To determine if application of fibular
reposition tape (FRT) has any effect on ankle, knee, or hip
kinematic, kinetics as well as vertical ground reaction forces
(vGRFs) during gait in individuals with chronic ankle instability
(CAI). Design: Cross over repeated measures laboratory study.
Subjects: Twenty active individuals with bilateral CAI (age = 21.5
± 4.1 years, height = 170 ± 7.5 cm, mass = 81.8 ± 22 kg).
Measurements: Time series curve analysis were used for group
comparisons. Groups included FRT, Sham FRT, and no tape.
Measurements included ankle, knee, and hip kinematics and kinetics
in the sagittal, frontal, and transverse planes throughout the
entire gait cycle as well as vGRFs during the stance phase.
Results: There were no significant differences when comparing the
no tape and sham FRT groups for all variables across the entire
gait cycle. Additionally, there were no significant results when
comparing the sham FRT and FRT groups for all variables across the
entire gait cycle. Conclusion: Application of FRT did not have any
effect on ankle, knee, or hip kinematics or kinetics across the
entire gait cycle as well as vGRFs during the stance phase in
individuals with CAI.

▼ Context: Individuals with chronic ankle instability
(CAI) often present with both mechanical and functional
insufficiencies that that contribute to long-term dysfunction.
Positional fault of the distal fibula is a possible impairment that
contributes to CAI. Fibular reposition taping (FRT) technique is a
suggested intervention to correct this malalignment. No research
has looked at the tape’s effectiveness in changing the fibular
position. Objective: To examine if the position of the fibula
changes after application of the FRT technique, and to assess the
interrater reliability of utilizing diagnostic ultrasound. Study
Design: Cross-over study. Setting: Laboratory. Participants: 20
individuals with chronic ankle instability (Age: 21.5±4.1years,
Mass: 81.8±22kg, Height: 170±7.5cm) with no history of lower
extremity surgery, ankle fracture, ankle injury in the past 6
weeks, or any vestibular or balance disorders. Intervention:
Participants completed three taping conditions: FRT technique, sham
tape, and no tape. Main Outcome Measures: Ultrasound measurements
were taken for each taping condition, and the distance between the
talus and fibula was measured. Paired-t tests were used to compare
differences between sham to control and then sham to FRT. Alpha was
set at p<.05. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC3,1) and
associated standard error of measure (SEM) was calculated to
determine intrarater reliability. Results: No significant
differences in fibular position were observed between taping
conditions. Intertester reliability was deemed to be excellent
(ICC3,1=0.98). Conclusion: No significant differences were found
between any of the conditions, indicating that the FRT technique
did not alter the position of the fibula. Diagnostic ultrasound is
a reliable tool for assessing position of the fibula.

▼ Sled towing is a common form of overload training in sports to work on muscular strength. This type of training leads to two results; chronic and acute. Acute training leads to postactivation potentiation (PAP), which is when subsequent muscle performance is enhanced following a preloading stimulus. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to determine the optimal rest intervals following sled towing on acute sprint speed. Twenty healthy recreationally trained males (age = 22.35 ± 2.41 years, height = 176.95 ± 5.46 cm, mass = 83.19 ± 11.31 kg) who were currently active in a field sport twice a week for the last six months volunteered to participate. A max 30-meter (m) pre-test BW sprint was performed followed by a 2-minute (min) recovery period. On the remaining 5 visits, participants then sprinted 30-m towing a sled at 30% BW then rested for 2, 4, 8, or 12-min. Participants were instructed to sit still during this time. After the recovery period, a max 30-m post-test BW sprint was performed. The major finding was that post sled pull bodyweight sprint times were less than baseline times on an individualized rest interval basis. This decrease occurred in the acceleration phase over the first 5-m only and was probably the result of PAP and the complex relationship between fatigue and potentiation relative to the intensity of the sled pull and rest interval.

The normalization of risk culture within sport
injury has created an environment where athletes train and compete
while injured despite the known health risks (Nixon, 1992, 1996;
Wiese-Bjornstal, 2010). Athlete beliefs about their capacity to
perform while in pain and pressure from social network sources are
factors thought to influence their risk taking behaviors related to
training and competing while injured. The purpose of this study was
to examine this risk subculture characterized by pain beliefs, risk
behaviors, and social network influences in the context of a
demanding, high injury risk sport. Intercollegiate wrestlers (N =
195) at fifteen National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA)
Division I universities participated by completing a paper and
pencil survey, which consisted of a demographics questionnaire, the
Sports Inventory for Pain (SIP), the Risk Behavior Conformity in
Sport Injury Questionnaire (RBSCI), and the Sport Network Pressure
and Support Questionnaire. Results of a multiple regression
analysis examining the ability of beliefs to predict deceit
behaviors among those wrestlers with prior injuries showed a
significant model (p = .03, Adjusted R square = .043), with the SIP
Coping subscale score a significant predictor of the RBCSI Deceit
Behaviors (β = - .30, p = .001). Employing direct pain coping
thought processes such as ignoring pain and toughing it out were
directly related to the undesirable behaviors of deceiving others
about one’s health status. A second multiple regression analysis
also showed a significant model (p = .003, Adjusted R square =
.074) in which two belief measures were significant predictors of
RBCSI Impression Management Behaviors, SIP Coping (β = - .20, p =
.022) and SIP Catastrophizing (β = -.23, p = .01). Direct pain
coping thought processes (such as ignoring pain and toughing it
out) and catastrophizing thoughts (such as dwelling on pain and
giving up when in pain), were directly related to the undesirable
actions associated with maintaining a tough façade. With respect to
analyses concerning behaviors and injury components, frequency of
injury was moderately correlated (r = .42, p < .05) with RBCSI
Healthy Behaviors, with high frequencies of injury associated with
the more likely use of healthy behavior strategies. Social network
influences descriptive analyses showed that coaches (69.5%) and
teammates (63.5%) were reported to “always” or “sometimes” pressure
wrestlers to compete while injured. Wrestlers felt pressured to
compete while injured “always” or “sometimes” 20.8% of the time by
their athletic trainers and 10.9% of the time by their physicians.
Implications of these results are discussed as they relate to the
beliefs and behaviors of athletes, influences of their social
network sources, and ties to injury components.

Major: Kinesiology. Advisor: Dr. Nicole M. LaVoi. 1 computer file
(PDF); iv, 52 pages.
The popularity of dance television series has risen
in the United States. Sport media often produces gender ideologies
that reflect hegemonic masculinity, which might limit female and
male participation in physical activity such as dance. In this
study judging commentary was examined, through the lens of the
framing theory, toward dancers on the dance television series So
You Think You Can Dance? Season 8. The amount of categorical
comments and the content were analyzed to determine if either
female and/or male dancers were marginalized. The findings support
past sport media research and dance research showing the
marginalization of female dancers through over-sexualization and
highlighting femininity, while male dancers were hypermasculinized
by highlighting strength and power.

January 2011. Major: Kinesiology. Advisor: Beth Lewis. 1 computer

The prevalence of depression is between 5-10% in
adults and is the fourth most significant cause of disability in
the world. It also is the second most common reported mental health
disorder among college students, second to eating disorders.
Research indicates that exercise is an effective intervention for
depression (Blumenthal et al., 2007); however, few laboratory-based
experimental studies have examined the effect of exercise on
depression. The purpose of this research was to conduct an
experimental study examining the effect of exercise intensity on
depressed mood in college students. The study consists of
undergraduate college students (n=25) self-reporting depressed
mood. These students were randomly assigned to a vigorous exercise
group, a moderate intensity exercise group, or a control. Depressed
mood was examined before, immediately after, and 24 hours following
a single bout of exercise using the Profile of Mood States (POMS).
The hypothesis was that participants randomly assigned to vigorous
intensity exercise would have greater mood changes (in the positive
direction) than participants assigned to moderate intensity
exercise or the control. Results indicated no differences between
the groups on pre-test to post-test changes on mood as measured by
the POMS at either timepoint. Future studies should use larger
sample sizes in order to better detect significant differences.
Also, it would be beneficial to use a population of clinically
depressed students to better determine if exercise can be used and
how it should be used in the treatment of
depression.

Introduction: Cardiac resynchronization therapy
(CRT) is a well-established treatment for heart failure (HF)
patients with a wide (>120 msec) QRS complex. Despite not
meeting current guidelines, some narrow QRS HF patients with
mechanical dyssynchrony receive CRT. The effects of CRT on cardiac
function, HF symptoms, and outcomes are not clearly known in these
patients. Methods: All consecutive CRT recipients between 2003 –
2008 with ejection fraction (EF) ≤ 35% and New York Heart
Association (NYHA) class III or IV were studied. There were 146 and
492 patients with narrow and wide QRS complex, respectively.
Eighty-five narrow QRS patients in sinus rhythm with suitable
images were matched by age and gender to wide QRS patients for a
multi-plane tissue tracking and speckle-tracking echocardiographic
analysis. Results: Narrow QRS patients were younger and had less
radial dyssynchrony at baseline. Increases in EF of 3.2 ± 9% and
6.8 ± 9% (p<0.05) were seen in narrow and wide QRS patients,
respectively. Wide QRS patients had decreased left ventricular size
(p<0.01) and increased longitudinal systolic function (p=0.04),
while narrow QRS patients had decreased delayed longitudinal
contraction (p<0.01), while tending to decrease longitudinal
dyssynchrony (p=0.076) and increase radial strain (p=0.086). Both
groups improved diastolic function (p<0.01), and had a similar
proportion of patients with improved clinical symptoms (p=0.17).
Five-year mortality rates were 40% and 46% in the narrow and wide
QRS groups respectively (p=0.234); however, wide QRS patients
tended to have a more favorable survival free of cardiovascular
hospitalization (p=0.056). Conclusion: Narrow QRS HF patients with
mechanical dyssynchrony respond favorably to CRT, but to a lesser
extent than wide QRS patients.

Psoriasis is the most common auto-immune disorder
worldwide and most often manifests itself as scaly plaques on the
skin. It can substantially affect a person‘s quality of life (QOL)
and overall wellness. In addition, individuals with
moderate-to-severe psoriasis are likely at greater risk for chronic
co-morbidities like cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes,
obesity, and metabolic syndrome. There is currently a dearth of
literature evaluating the lifestyle habits of individuals with
psoriasis, especially in regards to physical activity (PA). This
exploratory, cross-sectional study examined the PA habits of people
with psoriasis and explored whether PA was related to psoriasis
severity and QOL. The results suggest that total PA was not related
to psoriasis severity. However, individuals with more severe
disease were less physically active in their leisure time. In
addition, symptoms such as itchiness, stinging, soreness, and pain
showed a strong inverse association with leisure PA, independent of
the body surface area involved. Physical and psychological aspects
of QOL were not strongly related to leisure PA. Overall, it appears
that individuals with more severe disease, as measured by a
combination of symptoms, are less physically active in their
leisure time, which could contribute to some of the co-morbidities
seen in moderate-to-severe psoriasis.

▼ Kinesiology
Vascular aging has been implicated in the etiology of many vascular diseases. A common process linking the vascular aging to the development of vascular complications is the accumulation of senescent endothelial cells (ECs) in the vessel wall. Senescent ECs often exhibit the endothelial activation, a cell interactive pro-inflammatory and pro-coagulant state, which becomes a hallmark of early stage of atherosclerosis. Regular practice of aerobic exercise has been recognized as the single most effective non-pharmacological anti-aging intervention. While multiple factors play a role in bringing about the salutary effect of aerobic exercise, I hypothesized here that unidirectional laminar shear stress (LSS) is a prominent cellular mechanism responsible for the protective effect of aerobic exercise against vascular aging. In chapter 1, the purpose of study was to investigate the protective effects of LSS against EC senescence. In in vivo study, C57BL/6J mice were allowed for 4-week voluntary wheel exercise after a partial ligation surgery on the left carotid artery (LCA) as to induce a local intravascular disturbed flow. Right carotid artery (RCA) was used as an internal control. In in vitro studies, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were preconditioned by being exposed to LSS for 36 hours (20 dyne/cm2 for 12 hours and 5 dyne/cm2 for 24 hours) using a cone-and-plate shear apparatus. EC senescence was induced by incubating cells in 100 μM H2O2 contained media for 1 hour followed by 72 hours of serial culture in normal growth media. For mechanistic studies, we used resveratrol (RSV) and sirtinol as a SIRT1 activator and a sirtuin deacetylase inhibitor, respectively. EC senescence was determined by the percentage of senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) positive cells as well as the expression levels of cell senescence markers such as p53, p21, and p16. In in vivo study, en face SA-β-gal staining showed deposition of senescent cells only in the LCA but not in the RCA, suggesting a direct association of disturbed flow with vascular cell senescence. In in vitro studies, the number of SA-β-gal positive ECs and the expressions of p53, p21 and p16 were significantly increased in H2O2-induced senescent ECs. LSS pre-conditioned cells showed significant reduction in the expression levels of cell senescence markers. Furthermore, in senescent ECs, increased reactive oxygen species generation, decreased cell migration and angiogenic dysfunction were observed, which were improved by LSS pre-conditioning. The protective effect of LSS against EC senescence was completely abolished by SIRT1 inhibition. This study suggests that high-flow LSS on endothelial cells has protective effects against H2O2-induced senescence through a SIRT1-dependent mechanism. In chapter 2, the purpose of study was to investigate the effects of LSS on mitochondrial remodeling and endothelial activation. To investigate the effects of exercise on endothelial homeostasis, twenty one pre-hypertensives have performed supervised…

▼ Brazilian Jiujitsu is a martial art practiced by millions of people. It is a grappling art in which students are taught to win against opponents through the use of leverage, technique and tactics. Like many martial arts, coaches are seldom well-suited to impart crucial knowledge to their students. Many coaches are in the position due to high level competition success which does not translate into good teaching ability. Coaches often teach in a way that they themselves have been taught, instead of relying on scientific knowledge of correct biomechanics, motor learning, and physiology. This manual will provide a scientific background in biomechanics, motor learning, and physiology to instructors to improve their training protocols.

▼ Context: External stabilizing devices serve to limit
the range of motion of the involved joint. As the most common
injury in collegiate athletes, ankle injuries are frequently
supported by external devices such as external ankle tape. Changes
in biomechanical values at the ankle may result in changes up the
kinetic chain. By using external ankle tape, clinicians may be
increasing the risk of pathology in the athletic popultion.
However, no research exits to support this theory. Objective: To
compare the effect of external ankle taping on knee and hip
kinematics and kinetics compared to no taping during an anticipated
sidestep cutting task and a straight sprint task. Study Design:
Cross-over study. Setting: Laboratory. Participants: 16 healthy
males (Age: 23.1±2.6years, Mass: 81.4±11.4kg, height: 181.7±7.3cm)
with no history of lower extremity surgery, lower extremity injury
in the past six months or any vestibular or balance disorders.
Intervention: Participants completed both an external taping
technique and a no taping condition. Main Outcome Measures:
Three-dimensional kinematics and kinetics were collected with a
12-camera motion capture system and in-ground force plate.
Participants completed 5 trials each of a sprint and an anticipated
side-step cut with or without external ankle taping. Group means
and associated 90% confidence intervals were plotted, with
significance being identified when the confidence intervals did not
overlap for three consecutive data points. Results: No significant
differences in speed, kinetics, or kinematics were identified
between conditions for the tasks. Conclusion: External ankle tape
did not have a significant effect on the kinetics or kinematics in
healthy adult males during a sprinting or anticipated side-step
cutting task. However, the basis of the study was dependent on the
assumption that ankle kinematics and kinetics would be changed.
Future research should evaluate potential influences of external
taping on lower extremity function in female or pathological
participants.

▼ Over the last 40 years, a new paradigm has been posited where the variability observed in physiological systems is a consequence of the interactions occurring between the various components that affect the system. While quantifying the magnitude of variability can be useful, analyses that measure how the structure of the variability (dynamics) changes over time have been posited to reflect the health of the system. Many researchers interpret the results of these analyses to be indicative of the system’s adaptive capacity. While there is ample indirect evidence to support this notion, a lack of direct findings has left the literature lacking a definitive foundation to move forward with this interpretation. While many physiological systems are too invasive to safely perturb, the movementbased systems are routinely perturbed in real-world environments without dire consequences. Of particular interest is the locomotor system, which is constantly challenged in real-world environments via slips and trips. Furthermore, the locomotor system can be safely and validly perturbed in the laboratory. A range of locomotor dynamics-based measures have been used to describe differences between various clinical populations, but none have been directly associated with a person’s ability to remain upright when perturbed. The objectives of this study are to (1) examine the relationship between locomotor dynamics/stability to overall fall-risk prior, (2) examine how locomotor dynamics relate to the ability to recover from a trip via global stability, and (3) determine the extent to which an acute trip-training session alters locomotor dynamics and global stability. Forty healthy, older adults (75.2 ± 4.9 yrs) were recruited by convenience from the local community. The participants completed a variety of clinical assessments in order to determine overall fall-risk. Afterwards, they participated in three walking trials consisting of: 1) a 15-minute unperturbed walking session, 2) a 10-minute unperturbed walking session (control) or a 10-minute trip-training session (intervention), and 3) a 15-minute unperturbed walking session. Various measurements of locomotor dynamics and adaptability were calculated from full-body 3-D kinematics collected at 100Hz. Multiple regression and repeated measure analysis of variance models were calculated to determine to what extent locomotor dynamics and adaptability relate to one another and how an acute trip-training session affects their relationship. The results from our first experiment suggested that locomotor dynamics and stability during steady state do not significantly relate to overall fall-risk. However, the second experiment showed that locomotor dynamics are predictive of an individual’s ability to recover from a trip. Our last experiment showed the feasibility of using an acute trip-training session to alter locomotor dynamics and stability. These data represent the first direct evidence of physiological variability being indicative of adaptive capacity in the…
