Journal ArticleDOI
An acute bout of static stretching: effects on force and jumping performance.
TL;DR: The parallel duration of changes in ROM and quadriceps isometric force might suggest an association between stretch-induced changes in muscle compliance and isometricforce output.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of acute static stretching on force, balance, reaction time, and movement time.
TL;DR: It appears that an acute bout of stretching impaired the warm-up effect achieved under control conditions with balance and reaction/movement time.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ‘food addiction’ contributes to severity of obesity and body composition measurements from normal weight to obese individuals in the general population with higher rate in women as compared to men.
Journal ArticleDOI
High dietary magnesium intake is associated with low insulin resistance in the Newfoundland population.
Farrell Cahill,Mariam Shahidi,Jennifer L. Shea,Danny Wadden,Wayne Gulliver,Edward Randell,Sudesh Vasdev,Guang Sun +7 more
TL;DR: Higher dietary magnesium intake is strongly associated with the attenuation of insulin resistance and is more beneficial for overweight and obese individuals in the general population and pre-menopausal women.
Journal Article
Cooling hyperthermic firefighters by immersing forearms and hands in 10 degrees C and 20 degrees C water.
TL;DR: Hand and forearm immersion in cool water is simple, reduces heat strain, and may increase work performance in a hot, humid environment.
