Comparison of Borg- and OMNI-RPE as markers of the blood lactate response to exercise

Article Abstract:

Investigations were conducted to study the relationship between OMNI-ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) and the blood [La.sup.-] response to incremental exercise. It is concluded that RPE obtained from both Borg and OMNI scales show predictive utility as markers of the blood lactate response to incremental treadmill exercise in individuals with metabolic syndrome.

Thinness and weight loss: beneficial or detrimental to loongevity?

Article Abstract:

This article discusses whether epidemiological evidence supports views that low body mass index increases longevity or if weight loss reduces mortality rates. Neither hypothesis is supported by data, although thinness and weight loss in some cases increases mortality.

Intensity of exercise recovery, blood lactate disappearance, and subsequent swimming performance

Article Abstract:

The study examined the effects of recovery after exercise on blood level lactase on the performance of male swimmers. The coaches need to integrate recovery rate proportionate to the lactate threshold during competitions and training.
