Abstract Objective: Falls are among “the ‘giants’ of geriatrics”. The aim of the study was to examine the consequences of falls to physical activity (PA), sleep duration and quality of life (QoL) among institutionalized older people. Methods: 253 residents of three nursing homes at the age of 65 years or more participated in the study. Falls were registered during one year and after this time the Stanford Usual Activity Questionnaire was performed with each subject and each subject answered the questions concerning the sleep duration. The QoL was examined with the EuroQol-5D questionnaire. Results: Falls occurred in 103 subjects. The subjects with the history of fall were characterized by a lower level of PA, lower number of sleep hours and lower basic activities of daily living. In the EuroQol 5D questionnaire responses indicating mobility, self-care and anxiety problems were more pronounced in fallers. Conclusions : Low level of PA is a serious consequence of falls occurrence. History of falls is related to shorter sleep duration. PA and sleep restrictions as well as worse functional capacity may consequently deteriorate the quality of life among older institutionalized adults. Future studies should assess prospectively the bidirectional relationship of lower PA and falls as well as the influence of other factors such as sarcopenia or frailty.

Objective: To compare the acute responses of rate pressure product (RPP) between dynamic and isometric sets of resistance exercise (RE); compare the acute responses of RPP between upper and lower limbs in RE. Methods: Nineteen active men (22.7 ± 2.2 years) attended this study in a random crossover model. In the first day they performed hemodynamic measurements and one maximum repetition tests (1RM) in leg press (LGP) and bench press (BCP) exercises. In the second, third, fourth and fifth days they performed the following tests: LGP isometric, BCP isometric, LGP dynamic and BCP dynamic, respectively. Isometric protocols were conducted in 3 sets of 40 s (1 st set: 25% 1RM, 2 nd set: 50% 1RM, 3 rd set: 75% 1RM) and dynamic protocols in 3 sets of 10 repetitions (1 st set: 25% 1RM, 2 nd set: 50% 1RM, 3 th set: 75% 1RM). The RPP was obtained immediately after each set. Results: A comparison between protocols showed that RPP was higher (P < 0.05) in dynamic than in isometric protocol. A comparison between exercises showed that RPP was higher (P < 0.05) in LGP than BCP exercise. Conclusions: In similar relative intensities, the acute cardiac responses are influenced by the exercise protocol, since the RPP was higher in the dynamic condition. Furthermore, RPP seems to be related with recruited muscle mass, since that were observed higher values of RPP in exercises for lower limbs .

Objective: To investigate the acute effects of different antagonist manipulation protocols on maximal repetition performance and muscle activation during seated row (SR) exercise. Methods: Fifteen men (22.4 ± 1.1 years old, height 175 cm ± 5.5, weight 76.6 kg ± 7, and 12.3 ± 2.1 of body fat percentage) with previous resistance training experience (3.5 ± 1.2 years) performed four experimental protocols: (TP) one set to repetition failure of SR exercise; (AS) Antagonist static stretching for the pectoralis major (PM) followed by one set of SR; (PNFA) Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation for PM followed by one set of the SR; (APS) One set of the bench press with a 10 RM loads followed by one set of the SR. The maximal repetitions and the electromyographic (EMG) signal were recorded for the latissimus dorsi (LD), biceps brachii (BB), triceps brachii lateral head (TL), and PM during the SR. Results: A significant increase in SR repetition performance was noted for the APS (14 ± 1) versus the TP (9 ± 1.2, P = 0.0001), PNFA (10 ± 1.5, P = 0.001), and AS (12 ± 1.5, P = 0.004) protocols. A significant increase in SR repetitions was also noted for the AS versus the TP (P = 0.001) and PNFA (P = 0.002) protocols. The muscle activation of the BB and LD were significantly higher during the APS and AS versus the PNFA and TP sessions. Conclusions: These results suggest that either using the APS or AS approaches can facilitate an increase in SR repetition performance versus traditional resistance exercise sets.

Objective: To investigate participation and performance trends regarding the nationality of successful solo swimmers (513 women and 1,167 men) in the ‘English Channel Swim’. Methods: The nationality and the total swimming times were analyzed for all swimmers who successfully crossed the English Channel from 1875 to 2012. Results: The number of successful swimmers increased exponentially across years in both women and men. The highest number of successful female and male swimmers lived in Great Britain, followed by athletes living in the USA and in Australia. The annual fastest women and men improved their swimming times across years. The sex difference in performance remained unchanged at 15 ± 12%. Between 2001 and 2012, the annual fastest three women and men were not able to improve their swimming times. Men achieved 541 ± 57 min and were 55 ± 47 min (13 ± 7%) faster than women with 596 ± 37 min. Regarding the nationality of the successful swimmers, female swimmers from Great Britain achieved most of the annual fastest swimming times ahead of athletes from the USA and Australia. In men, British swimmers achieved most of the annual fastest swimming times ahead of swimmers from Egypt and the USA. Considering the ten fastest swimmers per country, female swimmers from Australia were the fastest ahead of athletes from USA and Great Britain. In men, the ten fastest swimming times were achieved by swimmers living in the USA, Great Britain and Australia. Conclusions: Women and men from Great Britain, Australia and the United States of America represented the largest number of successful solo swimmers in the ‘English Channel Swims’. Additionally, swimmers from these countries achieved the fastest swimming times.

Objective: To assess the effectiveness of cardiac rehabilitation on physical capacity and heart function in post-myocardial infarction women and to compare it to the results of rehabilitation in a group of post-infraction men. Methods: The study included 27 women aged between 43 and 75 years (mean age 62 ± 8.51 years) and 34 men between 46 and 74 years of age (mean age 63 ± 8.4 years) who suffered a myocardial infarction, were treated in a hospital, and afterwards participated in cardiac rehabilitation. The following tests were performed prior to and after 24 one-hour sessions of physical training: assessment of the ejection fraction, treadmill MET levels test for the evaluation of effort tolerance, estimation of perceived exertion using the Borg scale, level of heart failure in NYHA classification, intensity of stenocardial pain in CCS, and BMI. The obtained results were compared and analysed using statistical methods. Results: MET-measured physical capacity increased significantly from 4.30 ± 2.61 to 6.36 ± 2.21 (P < .001) in women and from 5.85 ± 2.60 to 8.38 ± 2.57 (P < .001) in men. Ejection fraction also increased from 59.69% ± 9.07 to 61.91% ± 10.41 (P < .05) in women, and from 54.12% ± 10.44 to 56.09 % ± 9.64 (P < .05) in men. In both groups, deterioration of heart failure or intensification of stenocardial pain was not observed. In women, the level of perceived exertion scored in the Borg scale decreased from 14.11 ± 1.09 to 13.7 ± 1.14 (P < .05). In contrast, no significant changes in the level of perceived exertion were documented in men. Conclusions: Following cardiac rehabilitation, increased physical capacity and improved left ventricle systolic function was observed in both men and women.

It has been assumed that cryotherapy treatments improve athletic recovery and prevent the negative effects of strain caused by training. Body response to low temperatures is reflected in many changes in the hormonal, blood, nervous and immune systems, which may significantly influence tissue regeneration mechanisms. The use of ice or other forms of local cooling is a popular method for the treatment of sports-related injuries. This method is widely used by athletes and allows for fast return to sports activities shortly after injury. The purpose of this paper was to compare the literature reports on three different cryotherapy treatments (ice massage, whole-body cryotherapy, and cold water immersion) and to demonstrate the efficacy of these methods in the athletic recovery.
