(MDPI, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
This study explored the mediating factors of sarcopenia in a group of women survivors
of breast cancer in Bogotá, Colombia. This was a descriptive cross-sectional study with 98 women
survivors of breast cancer, who were ...
High muscular fitness has a powerful protective cardiometabolic effect in adults: influence of weight status
(BioMed Central, 2016)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Low levels of muscular fitness (MF) are recognized as an important marker of nutritional status and a
predictor of metabolic complications, cardiovascular disease and death, however, the relationship between ...
Exercise during pregnancy on maternal lipids: a secondary analysis of randomized controlled trial
(BioMed Central, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Today, scientific evidence has supported the popular belief that physical activity is associated

Prevalence of non-responders for glucose control markers after 10 weeks of high-intensity interval training in adult women with higher and lower insulin resistance
(Frontiers Media, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,

Effects of 6-weeks high-intensity interval training in schoolchildren with insulin resistance: influence of biological maturation on metabolic, body composition, cardiovascular and performance non-responses
(Frontiers Media, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Previous studies have observed significant heterogeneity in the magnitude of change in measures of metabolic response to exercise training. There are a lack of studies examining the prevalence of non-responders ...
Similar cardiometabolic effects of high- and moderate-intensity training among apparently healthy inactive adults: a randomized clinical trial
(BioMed Central, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
