Six-year follow-up of a world record-breaking master marathon runner.

Article Synopsis
- Older athletes, like the 76-year-old runner who broke a marathon record, often run slower as they age, mainly because their body uses oxygen less effectively.
- Even though this runner still competes at a high level, his ability to take in oxygen (V̇Omax) dropped by about 15% over a 6-year period.
- This study helps us understand how aging affects athletic performance and shows that even elite athletes can experience changes as they get older.
To compare energy expenditure during and after active and handheld video game drumming compared to walking and sitting. Ten experienced, college-aged men performed four protocols (one per week): no-exercise seated control (CTRL), virtual drumming on a handheld gaming device (HANDHELD), active drumming on drum pads (DRUM), and walking on a treadmill at ~30% of VO (WALK). Protocols were performed after an overnight fast, and expired air was collected continuously during (30min) and after (30min) exercise.

Thus, the effect of exercise-intensity on energy expenditure has yielded varying results, especially with explosive resistance exercise. This study was designed to examine the effect of exercise-intensity and kilograms/set on energy expenditure during explosive resistance exercise.
