Multiparametric MRI Assessment of Morpho-Functional Muscle Changes Following a 6-Month FES-Cycling Training Program: Pilot Study in People With a Complete Spinal Cord Injury

Multiparametric MRI Assessment of Morpho-Functional Muscle Changes Following a 6-Month FES-Cycling Training Program: Pilot Study in People With a Complete Spinal Cord Injury

Due to the unloading following an SCI, skeletal muscle (SM) undergoes numerous adaptations, including rapid and profound atrophy, intramuscular fat accumulation, impaired muscular glucose metabolism and decreased force generation and muscle performance [4]. Therefore, to counteract detrimental effects of SCI on SM health, rehabilitation plays a crucial role with promising positive effects [4-7].

Resistance Training in Patients After Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery: Protocol for a Systematic Review

Resistance Training in Patients After Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery: Protocol for a Systematic Review

Resistance training is defined as a form of physical activity that is designed to improve muscular fitness by exercising a muscle or a muscle group against any external resistance [6]. This can include modalities such as machines, free weights, bands, and body weight movements. Resistance training should be implemented to mitigate sarcopenia or skeletal muscle loss, which has in turn been shown to improve strength in patients who have undergone MBS [9-11].
