We compared the heart rate variability (HRV) after a low-intensity resistance exercise (LI-RE) with short (SSC/LI-RE) and long (LSC/LI-RE) set configurations, composed of 10 and 20 repetitions, respectively. Randomly, ten young males performed one session of both RE protocols. Time- and frequency-domain, and nonlinear HRV parameters were assessed at baseline and 20-30 and 50-60 min after protocols. Significant reductions in time-domain, frequency-domain and nonlinear HRV parameters were observed at 20-30 min and 50-60 min after LSC/LI-RE compared to baseline. A low-intensity RE with a long set configuration induces an acute vagal withdrawal and loss of heart rate complexity after exercise.

Impact of Weight Loss on Testosterone Levels: A Review of BMI and Testosterone.
Cureus
December 2024
Internal Medicine and Family Medicine, Larkin Community Hospital Palm Springs Campus, Miami, USA.
The purpose of this review is to explore the relationship between weight loss (WL), specifically reductions in body mass index (BMI), and increases in testosterone levels. Obesity and excess body fat are linked to reduced testosterone levels, which can lead to metabolic dysfunctions, reduced libido, and diminished muscle mass. To attain this purpose, this review will summarize current evidence on how weight reduction interventions, including dietary changes, exercise, and bariatric surgery, affect testosterone production in overweight and obese individuals.

Diabetes mellitus, characterized by high blood glucose due to inadequate insulin action, comprises two main types: type 1, an autoimmune disease, and type 2, marked by insulin resistance. This review provides a comprehensive overview of diabetes management and treatment advancements. Effective diabetes management includes maintaining blood glucose levels within normal ranges and monitoring HbA1c, a marker reflecting average glucose levels over the past few months.

Faculty of Sport Sciences, Waseda University, Tokorozawa, Japan.
Introduction: The effect of mechanoreflex on central blood pressure (BP) is unclear, although the influence of metaboreflex has been investigated. A relatively small contribution of the mechanoreflex to the pressor response to exercise has been considered in humans because many studies have failed to isolate the mechanoreflex-mediated pressor response. In a recent study, we successfully isolated a mechanoreflex-mediated pressor response using static passive stretching (SPS) in the forearm.

Front Physiol
January 2025
Laboratory of Exercise Physiology, Department of Movement, Human, and Health Sciences, University of "Foro Italico, Rome, Italy.
Introduction: Early increases in muscle strength following unilateral resistance training are typically accompanied by strength gains in the contralateral untrained muscles, a phenomenon known as cross-education. However, the specific motor unit adaptations responsible for this gain transfer remain poorly understood. To address this gap, we recorded myoelectrical activity from the biceps brachii using high-density electromyography.

In this Classics in Diabetes article, we revisit the article by Amati et al., "Skeletal Muscle Triglycerides, Diacylglycerols, and Ceramides in Insulin Resistance: Another Paradox in Endurance-Trained Athletes?" Published in the October 2011 issue of Diabetes, this article was among the first to highlight the nuanced roles of exercise-induced changes in bioactive lipids such as ceramide and diacylglycerol (DAG) in insulin signaling.
