Effects of core strength training using stable versus unstable surfaces on physical fitness in adolescents : a randomized controlled trial Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Effect of High-Intensity Interval Training in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes on Physical Fitness and Retinal Microvascular Perfusion Determined by Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Objective: Physical activity may protect from ocular complications of diabetic retinopathy (DR). We investigated exercise training effects on the retinal microvasculature using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in type 1 diabetes (T1D). Methods: Twenty T1D patients without clinical signs of DR performed four weeks of high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Cycle ergometry was used for determination of physical fitness. OCTA of ...

Intrinsic exercise capacity in rats influences dopamine neuroplasticity induced by physical training Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The study evaluates whether the intrinsic capacity for physical exercise influences dopamine neuroplasticity induced by physical training. Male rats were submitted to three progressive tests until fatigue. Based on the maximal time of exercise (TE), rats were considered as low performance (LP), standard performance (SP) or high performance (HP) to exercise. Eight animals from each group (LP, SP, and HP) were randomly subdivided in sedentary ...

Effects of Plyometric Training on Physical Performance Vrije Universiteit Brussel
BACKGROUND: Plyometric training can be performed through many types of exercises involving the stretch-shortening cycle in lower limbs. In the last decades, a high number of studies have investigated the effects of plyometric training on several outcomes in different populations.
OBJECTIVES: To systematically review, summarize the findings, and access the quality of published meta-analyses investigating the effects of plyometric ...
