A comparison of body composition, body cathexis, and attitude toward obesity in women with different levels of physical activity

Creator:: Lai, Shu-mei
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to identify significant differences in body composition, body cathexis, and attitudes toward obesity of women in various age groups involved in different levels of physical exercise. A total of 216 women, ranging in age from 17 to 64, took part in this study. They...

A comparison of bone mineral density between active and nonactive men with spinal cord injuries

Creator:: Eddins, William C.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to compare the levels of bone mineral density (BMD) of the whole body (WB) and proximal femurs of physically active men with spinal cord injuries (SCI) to nonactive men with spinal cord injuries. Also, the lean muscle mass (LMM) of active men with SCI...

A kinematic analysis of the karate back thrust kick

Creator:: Cullings, Deborah Ann
Abstract:: The back thrust kick is a karate technique used primarily in a defensive setting. This research described the kinematic variables involved in the skilled execution of the kick. Variables examined included movement sequencing, angular position of the trunk, thigh and leg, angular velocity of the thigh and leg, linear velocity...

An evaluation of chlorine as a disinfectant for potable water supplies in the United States : weighing the human health risks

Creator:: Monaghan, Pegeen
Abstract:: The removal of microbial populations from potable water has been a practice with great importance towards public health, as it has resulted in the reduction of literally millions of cases of infectious disease. In the United States, pathogenic organisms are most commonly removed from drinking water through the application of...

Bone gains in adolescent athletes and non-athletes

Creator:: Rinder, Todd Anthony
Abstract:: Discordance in bone mass between young adult swimmers and soccer players may be a direct result of differences in bone loading patterns that influence bone mineralization during growth. Our aim was to evaluate whether sports participation (soccer and swimming) had an independent effect on bone mass accrual at the hip...

Carbohydrate loading, vitamin B-6 supplementation, and fuel metabolism during exercise of differing intensity in post-absorptive man

Creator:: DeVos, Ann
Abstract:: Four young trained men were studied during 50 min of continuous bicycle ergometer exercise [30 min at 60%, 15 min at 80%, and 5 min at 90% maximal heart rate (MHR)] to elucidate changes in fuel metabolism resulting from a glycogen depletion-repletion regimen, and to determine the effect of supplemental...

Cardiorespiratory responses to circuit weight training as measured by a biokinetic swim-bench test and a treadmill run test

Creator:: Chiang, Jasson
Abstract:: The goal of this study was to determine if the cardiorespiratory adaptations to an eight-week circuit weight training program are better measured with a biokinetic swim-bench test versus a standard treadmill test. The working hypothesis of the study was that since standard circuit weight training programs stress the upper body...

Color in the work environment

Creator:: Ainsworth, Rebecca A.
Abstract:: This study examined the effect that three environmental hues had on subjects' work performance and on mood levels of anxiety, depression, and arousal in an office work environment. Pre-test post- test measurements of differences in work performance and mood levels were used to test twelve hypotheses. Work performance was measured...

Comparative nutrient intake and biochemical interrelationships among healthy vegetarian and nonvegetarian Seventh-Day Adventists, nonvegetarians, and hormone dependent cancer subjects

Creator:: Shultz, Terry Dale
Abstract:: The purposes of the research presented in this thesis were to: (l) assess the nutritional status of vegetarian and nonvegetarian Seventh-day Adventists (SDA), non-SDA non-vegetarians, and non-vegetarian hormone dependent cancer subjects; (2) determine the relationship of various blood and urinary biochemical parameters to dietary intake; (3) determine hormonal status in...
