Abstract:
У сучасному суспільстві людина відчуває на собі цілий комплекс несприятливих чинників: емоційні напруги, інформаційні перевантаження, погані екологічні умови. Ці фактори дуже часто поєднуються з недостатньою фізичною активністю. Сукупна дія несприятливих факторів навколишнього середовища і малорухливого способу життя надає надзвичайно негативний вплив на організм, порушуючи його нормальне функціонування і сприяючи розвитку різних захворювань.

Abstract:
<p> Objective: While brief bouts of exercise improve cognitive function, more prolonged exercise can suppress attention and executive function. Dehydration and heat exposure are known contributors to these deficits, though the role of blood sugar changes during exercise in cognitive dysfunction is less understood at this time. The current study sought to clarify the independent contribution of blood glucose levels to cognitive function following demanding exercise. </p><p> Method: Healthy adult males (N= 10, age= 21.9 +/- 1.97 years) presented for two counterbalanced experimental trials in

Abstract:
Cancer survivors are more than twice as likely as the general population to suffer the debilitating effects of depression. This comorbid condition is associated with several negative consequences, such as reduction in compliance with cancer treatments, and hastened mortality. Recent research has examined the therapeutic effect of exercise on depression and reported excellent results of similar magnitude to those achieved with pharmacotherapy or psychological intervention. However, no research, to date, has examined the effectiveness of exercise on reducing depression in depressed cancer surviv

Abstract:
Background: Nearly half of the US population is overweight or obese, carrying with them a higher risk for morbidity and mortality and rising healthcare costs. Rural women are disproportionately affected, with higher rates of obesity, obesity-related chronic diseases, and poorer health outcomes (Befort, Nazir, & Perri, 2012; Penney, Rainham, Dummer & Kirk, 2014). There may be several factors. In general, rural health systems are more isolated, with a lack of healthcare resources including quality providers, technology, and public health services (IOM, 2009).

Physical activity has been demonstrated in the literature as an effective way to reduce the risk for development of chronic disease.

The model is centered on "stages of change", which describe a continuum of readiness to engage in a health behavior change. Stages contain temporal, qualitative, and quantitative characteristics.
