Students' perceptions of using Facebook as an interactive learning resource at university

TL;DR: The authors evaluated students' perceptions of using "Facebook pages" within individual university subject offerings and found that most students (n=135, 78.0%) anticipated that a Facebook page would facilitate their learning by increased interaction with students and instructors, and notifications for course information.
Journal ArticleDOI

Concurrent strength and endurance training. A review.

TL;DR: In this paper, both chronic and acute hypotheses have been proposed to explain the phenomenon of strength inhibition during concurrent training, which is due to the difficulties associated with comparing results of studies which differ markedly in a number of design factors, including the mode, frequency, duration and intensity of training, training history of participants, scheduling of training sessions and dependent variable selection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term metabolic and skeletal muscle adaptations to short-sprint training: Implications for sprint training and tapering

TL;DR: The adaptations of muscle to sprint training can be separated into metabolic and morphological changes as mentioned in this paper, with the adaptations represented by muscle fiber type, sarcoplasmic reticulum, and muscle cross-sectional area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural Influences on Sprint Running Training Adaptations and Acute Responses

TL;DR: Improved temporal sequencing of muscle activation and/or improved fast twitch fibre recruitment may contribute to superior sprint performance and speed of impulse transmission along the motor axon may also have implications on sprint performance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute exercise and subsequent energy intake. A meta-analysis

TL;DR: Results suggest that exercise is effective for producing a short-term energy deficit and that individuals tend not to compensate for the energy expended during exercise in the immediate hours after exercise by altering food intake.
