A cross-sectional analysis of baseline fitness data collected during preventive medical examination of 13,037 women aged 20 to 64 years evaluated at the Cooper Clinic in Dallas, Texas, from January 1, 1970, through December 30, 2004, who underwent a body composition assessment and a maximal treadmill exercise test. Probiotic therapy had a positive effect on selected parameters of body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness of study participants and showed a tendency to reduce inflammation.

Participants were defined as MHO or MUO if their insulin-stimulated glucose disposal, measured by a 3-hour hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp, was in the upper quartile or in the lower three quartiles. We compared body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) between metabolically healthy overweight/obese (MHO) versus metabolically unhealthy overweight/obese (MUO) adolescents in 189 black and white adolescents (BMI ≥ 85th percentile, 12–18 years of age). p.rump@hb.unimaas.nlAbstract.Relations between frequently used indicators of cardiorespiratory fitness, sex and body composition were studied in a birth-cohort based sample of young prepubescent children (age range: 6.8 - 8.2 years). https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jadohealth.2018.08.024. The Bruce treadmill test was used to assess submaximal heart rate, endurance time (ET), calculated total work (W(total)) and maximal power output (P(max)) in 100 children (50 boys, 50 girls). Body composition was determined by skinfold measurements. Although cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is determined by a number of nonmodifiable factors, such as gender, age, and genetic factors, it has also been considered in recent years an objective indicator of physical activity and used to assess the relationship between physical activity and health status [30,31]. However, findings from studies in children are inconsistent. Background: Some studies have been conducted to verify the effects of Pilates for individuals who are obese, but conclusive results are not yet available due to methodological concerns. Low-volume HIIT, therefore, appears to be a time-efficient treatment for increasing fitness, but not for the improvement of body composition. However, the most efficacious exercise prescription to improve anthropometry, cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and metabolic health … The results further demonstrate that when oxygen uptake measurement is not feasible, W(total) or P(max) (expressed per kilogram fat-free mass) seem to provide better indicators of aerobic power than endurance time.Publication Types: Clinical Trial, AB - Nutrition and Toxicology Research Institute Maastricht (NUTRIM), The Netherlands. author = "P. Rump and W.J.M. Independent of race, CRF was higher in MHO versus MUO adolescents. A new study led by researchers at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology examined how cardiorespiratory fitness and body composition relate to neuronal health in 290 healthy young adults. Outcome measures of body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness and background variables Height (cm) and weight (kg) were measured to the nearest 0.1 using standard procedures allowing for the calculation of body mass index—BMI (kg/m 2 )—for each child. The primary outcomes were changes in percentage body fat and in maximum oxygen uptake (VO 2max). Percent body fat was negatively associated with ET and relative oxygen uptake (ml x min(-1) x kg(-1)) and was positively related to submaximal heart rate at 6 minutes exercise (HR6). Absolute oxygen uptake (ml x min(-1)) was related to W(total) and P(max). The results further demonstrate that when oxygen uptake measurement is not feasible, W(total) or P(max) (expressed per kilogram fat-free mass) seem to provide better indicators of aerobic power than endurance time. Current international guidelines recommend people living with obesity should be prescribed a minimum of 300 min of moderately intense activity per week for weight loss.

Black MHO adolescents had lower (p < .05) 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test glucose, triglycerides, very-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, with a lower prevalence of impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance compared with black MUO adolescents. OBJECTIVE: To investigate cross-sectional associations of PA and sedentary time (ST) with body composition and CRF in mid-childhood. The concentration of N-acetyl aspartic acid (NAA) is of interest because it is a marker of neuronal integrity. Conflicts of interest: All authors have no conflicts of interest to declare. Fat-free mass was positively related to W(total), P(max) and absolute oxygen uptake (ml x min(-1)). Objective: We examined the health benefits of leanness and the hazards of obesity while simultaneously considering cardiorespiratory fitness. Absolute oxygen uptake (ml x min(-1)) was related to W(total) and P(max). White MHO adolescents had lower (p < .05) triglycerides and very-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, with a lower prevalence of impaired fasting glucose compared with white MUO adolescents. Measures of skeletal muscle function including muscle strength, cross-sectional area (CSA), and whole-body composition (lean vs. body mass) are central determinants of reduced exercise tolerance in chronic heart failure (CHF) and … CRF was measured by a graded maximal treadmill test. T. Body composition was measured using the pediatric option for BodPod and cardiorespiratory fitness by the 20 m shuttle run. Total fat was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and visceral adiposity and liver fat were measured by magnetic resonance imaging and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy, respectively.

We compared body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) between metabolically healthy overweight/obese (MHO) versus metabolically unhealthy overweight/obese (MUO) adolescents in 189 black and white adolescents (BMI ≥ 85th percentile, 12–18 years of age). 1 However, sole focus on weight loss is not the optimal, as it fails to consider cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), which can, at medium to high fitness levels, attenuate the adverse consequences of obesity on health, irrespective of body mass index (BMI). The purpose was to compare body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, and physical activity (PA) engagement between women with ACLR and healthy controls. Body composition was determined by skinfold measurements. Refugee Somali women were invited to participate in sessions to assess physical fitness and body measurements. Comparing the health-related fitness exam scores by the FITNESSGRAM classification system, students who were classified as Very Lean and High Risk for body composition had lower exam scores than those classified in the healthy fitness zone. The answer is false. © 2018 Published by Elsevier Inc. on behalf of Society for Adolescent Health and Medicine. The Bruce treadmill test was used to assess submaximal heart rate, endurance time (ET), calculated total work (W(total)) and maximal power output (P(max)) in 100 children (50 boys, 50 girls). Relative oxygen uptake (ml x min(-1) x kg(-1)) was related to ET. The observed differences in indicators of cardiorespiratory fitness between boys and girls were largely attributable to a difference in body composition. Body composition was determined by skinfold measurements. Epidemiological researches have found that not only obesity but also cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) plays a pivotal role in the prevalence of CVD. Percent body fat was negatively associated with ET and relative oxygen uptake (ml x min(-1) x kg(-1)) and was positively related to submaximal heart rate at 6 minutes exercise (HR6). Although there is a strong direct relation between BMI and mortality (27), there has been little research on the relation between measured body fatness and mortality (16).

Relationship between body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness in Japanese junior high school boys and girls. title = "Body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness indicators in prepubescent boys and girls". However, the optimal intensity and frequency of aerobic exercise training to improve these outcomes in colorectal cancer survivors is unknown. p.rump@hb.unimaas.nl. Fat-free mass was positively related to W(total), P(max) and absolute oxygen uptake (ml x min(-1)). Here we focus on how fat mass and lean tissues affect cardiorespiratory fitness, with emphasis on their effects on peak oxygen consumption. This study aimed to investigate relationships between age, bone mineral measurements, body composition measurements, and cardiorespiratory fitness level in a group of young healthy Australian men. The aim of this study was to verify body composition, cardiorespiratory fitness, and biochemical markers of prepubertal overweight and obese boys to a 16-week futsal training program. In 17 children, maximal oxygen consumption was measured. Methods: Sixteen boys (age: 7-10 y, body mass index>thanat 95th percentileaccording to Center for Disease Control and Prevention; 35.5±7.4 percent fat) participated to futsal training program. is not the optimal, as it fails to consider cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), which can, at medium to high fitness levels, attenuate the adverse consequences of obesity on health, irrespective of body mass index (BMI).5–7 Growing evidence suggests that improved CRF largely neutralizes the adverse effects of increased adiposity as well as other MHO adolescents had significantly lower trunk fat, waist circumference, and visceral fat compared with MUO adolescents in both races. Results: Aerobic fitness was a statistically significant predictor of exam score (β = 0.563, p < 0.001), but percent body fat was not (β = 0.185, p =0.074). Just because someone is lean does not mean that they will perform better in a triathlon, because without training their cardiorespiratory fitness, they may not even last the distance. We observed a direct relation between body fatness and all-cause and CVD mortality. In 17 children, maximal oxygen consumption was measured. However, being fi… The factors that influence cardiorespiratory fitness are age, gender, genetics, body composition, and a person's level of conditioning.

Body composition was measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and cardiorespiratory fitness using cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). Two longitudinal studies have shown that low CRF was a strong and independent predictor of metabolic health in adults , . A number of additional factors effect cardiorespiratory fitness, but body composition is a big one. Body composition, however, is not a great predictor of performance. PURPOSE:We compared body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) between metabolically healthy overweight/obese (MHO) versus metabolically unhealthy overweight/obese (MUO) adolescents in 189 black and white adolescents (BMI ≥ 85th percentile, 12-18 years of age).

The contribution of body composition compartments in the development and progress of HF has been the object of numerous studies. Thirty-five healthy men aged 18–25 yr had anthropometric measures, body composition, and cardiorespiratory fitness level assessed. Height, bodyweight and waist and hip circumference were measured. In whites, MHO adolescents had lower (p = .055) liver fat compared with MUO adolescents. Measure cardiorespiratory fitness in terms VO2max and evaluate the correlation of body composition measures such as body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (BF%), lean body mass percentage (LBM%), and/or waist circumference (WC) with VO2max, in individuals in a firefighter population. The observed differences in indicators of cardiorespiratory fitness between boys and girls were largely attributable to a difference in body composition.
