TL;DR: A 10-week hatha yoga intervention delivered at the office worksite during lunch hour did not improve HF power or other HRV parameters, however, improvements in flexibility, state anxiety and musculoskeletal fitness were noted with high adherence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exercise training in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis: a systematic review of clinical trials.
TL;DR: According to the 29 trials reviewed, HD patients can safely derive a myriad of health-related adaptations from engaging in appropriately structured exercise regimens involving aerobic and/or resistance training, but methodological limitations within this body of literature may be partially responsible for minimal advocacy for exercise in this cohort.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progressive resistance training in breast cancer: a systematic review of clinical trials
Birinder S Cheema,Catherine A. Gaul,Kirstin Lane,Maria A. Fiatarone Singh,Maria A. Fiatarone Singh +4 more
TL;DR: Overall, the studies reviewed suggest that women surgically treated for breast cancer can derive health-related and clinical benefits by performing PRT after breast cancer surgery, and robustly designed RCTs prescribing targeted PRT regimens throughout various phases of breast cancer treatment are warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Full-body exercise training improves fitness and quality of life in survivors of breast cancer.
TL;DR: It is suggested that survivors of breast cancer can safely benefit from engaging in a full-body exercise regimen and psychological QOL and overall QOL improved significantly during and after the training period.
Journal ArticleDOI
A randomized controlled trial for the effect of passive stretching on measures of hamstring extensibility, passive stiffness, strength, and stretch tolerance.
TL;DR: Passive stretching increases hamstring extensibility and decreases passive stiffness, with no change in stretch tolerance defined by pain intensity during the stretch, with the volume of stretching higher in this study.
