Influence of high and low glycemic index meals on endurance running capacity
Article Abstract:
No difference in endurance running capacity was found by a study carried out to look into the effect of high- and low-glycemic-index (GI) carbohydrate pre-exercise meals on capacity for endurance running. Five male and three female subjects, all active, ran on a treadmill to exhaustion on two occasions 7 days apart. After an overnight fast, and 3 hours before the run, each subject had a single-blind, random-order isoenergetic meal with either high carbohydrate content or low carbohydrate content, regulated as to weight of food relative to body weight.

The effects of graded resistance exercise on platelet aggregation and activation
Article Abstract:
Results demonstrate that resistance exercise enhances platelet count , plateletcrit, and mean plaelet volume in parallel with an activation of platelet and increases in platelet agregation and beta-thromboglobulin. Data indicate that the increases are statistically significant.
