BACKGROUND: Research has suggested that balance ability contributes to musculoskeletal injury (MSKI) rates in firefighters. Though the Y-Balance Test (YBT) can predict injury, it is unclear what physical measures inform YBT performance in firefighters. Thus, there is a lack of knowledge regarding best practice for improving balance in firefighters. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between the YBT and fitness measures, including body composition, aerobic capacity, functional total-body power, upper and lower-body strength, and movement efficiency, among firefighters.

Explosive-type strength training may alter kinetics and neuromuscular activity during stair ascent in elderly women. This may improve functional ability. Nineteen women (69.7 ± 3.4 yr) were randomly allocated to strength training (TG; twice per wk, 12 wk) or a control group (CG). Stair ascent was assessed at self-chosen (AFV), standardized (ASV), and maximal velocity (AMV) pre- and posttraining. Ground-reaction force (GRF) and EMG quantified kinetics and neuromuscular activity. After training, TG increased AMV and AFV velocity by 8% (p= .02) and 17% (p= .007), respectively (TG vs.CG; p< .05

804 Background: Physical capability describes the ability to do the physical tasks of everyday living. Oncologists usually evaluate physical capability through anamnesis generating a performance status (PS) score. Some authors have proposed the use of cardiorespiratory reserve, muscular strength and objective evaluation of physical activity to avoid the subjective, unreliable and non-reproducible condition of PS. Methods: Patients with a recent diagnosis of colorectal cancer who accepted to participate were evaluated at the hospital setting. Walking speed was evaluated through both one-mile wa

BackgroundThe attainment of walking is a focus of physical therapy intervention in children with cerebral palsy (CP) and may affect their independence in mobility and participation in daily activities. However, knowledge of determinants of independent walking to guide physical therapists' decision making is lacking.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to identify child factors (postural control, reciprocal lower limb movement, functional strength, and motivation) and family factors (family support to child and support to family) that predict independent walking 1 year later in young children wit

Purpose: Japan is one of few countries with a male life expectancy over 80 years. The gap between the healthy life span and the total life expectancy is large, highlighting the importance of maintaining physical performance. The present study aims to establish reference values for multiple physical performance measures among high-functioning oldest-old Japanese men and to investigate the correlations among these measurements to understand how these variables are related.

Background. In patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), there is a decline in muscle strength and physical capacity due to demyelination and axonal loss in the central nervous system. In patients with advanced MS or in a later stage of the disease, also respiratory impairment may occur. The degree of pulmonary dysfunction in the earlier stages of MS has not been thoroughly described. Therefore, the primary aims of this study are to describe pulmonary function and respiratory muscle strength in patients with a moderate disease course and to identify associations between respiratory muscle strengt

Abstract Domains of functional performance (strength, balance) and cognition (executive function, processing speed) have been shown to independently predict both comfortable and gait speed. Walking speed reserve (WSR) reflects an individual’s ability to increase their walking speed when needed to adjust to environmental demands. Increasing speed requires a higher demand of neuromuscular control and cognitive resources. Few studies have investigated WSR; however, poorer cognitive status has been shown to be associated with a smaller WSR. Understanding mechanisms in WSR could help with intervent
