Maximum Aerobic Capacity

This study was intended to investigate the effect of aerobic gymnastic training at the menstrual cycle phase and perceptions of female students of Sport Science Faculty of State University of Padang on maximum aerobic capacity. The research was conducted using repeated factorial design 2 x 3. Aerobic gymnastic training was a treatment given to the menstrual cycle phase as independent variables, perception as the attribute variable, and the maximum aerobic capacity as the dependent variable. 40 students were taken by using purposive sampling technique as the samples from 170 female students enrolled at 2010/2011 academic year. The data of menstrual cycle phase and perception were collected by using questionnaires while the data of maximum aerobic capacity were taken by using MSFT (beep test). The data of maximum aerobic capacity were then analyzed using by inferential statistics ANOVA 2 x 3 two paths .The data analysis and interpretation indicate that: (1) as the whole, there is a significant difference of the effect of aerobic gymnastic training during premenstrual, menstrual, and postmenstrual phases on the maximum aerobic capacity; (2) there is an interaction between the effects of aerobic gymnastic training during the menstrual phases and the perception on maximum aerobic capacity; (3) there is no significant effect of aerobic gymnastic training during premenstrual and menstrual phases of the students whose positive perception on maximum aerobic capacity; (4) there is a significant effect of aerobic gymnastic training during premenstrual and postmenstrual phases of the female students whose positive perception on maximum aerobic capacity; (5) there is no significant effect of aerobic gymnastic training during menstrual and postmenstrual phases of the female students whose positive perception on maximum aerobic capacity; (6) there is a significant effect of aerobic gymnastic training during premenstrual and menstrual phases of the female students whose negative perception on maximum aerobic capacity; (7) there is no significant effect of aerobic gymnastic training during premenstrual and postmenstrual phases of the female students whose positive perception on maximum aerobic capacity; and (8) there is a significant effect of aerobic gymnastic training during menstrual and postmenstrual phases of the female students whose negative perception on maximum aerobic capacity. The findings imply that the lowness of maximum aerobic capacity of the students during menstruation is not mainly due to the menstruation itself but more to the negative perception during on the maximum aerobic capacity. Therefore, the teachers, lecturers, and trainers are expected to provide the female students (at any levels of education) with better explanation on the menstrual cycle phases and their effects on physical activities (sports)

A large part of research using questionnaires for female university students relies on self-reported body mass, height, and body mass index (BMI) data; however, the validity of these data in this population group is unknown. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to examine the validity of self-reported body mass, height, and BMI in female students. Female students of biomedical sciences (n = 93, age 21.8 ± 4.7 years, height 1.63 ± 0.06 m, weight 60.5 ± 11.9 kg, and BMI 22.7 ± 3.8 kg/m2) completed the short version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and were tested for anthropometric characteristics at three different times of the day (12–2 p.m., n = 36; 2–4 p.m., n = 20; 4–6 p.m., n = 37). Participants over-reported height (+0.01 ± 0.02 m, +0.9 ± 1.2%, Cohen’s d = 0.22) and under-reported weight (−0.8 ± 2.1 kg, −1.2 ± 3.6%, d = −0.07) and BMI (−0.7 ± 1.0 kg/m2, −2.9 ± 4.2%, d = −0.19) (p < 0.001). A moderate main effect of time of day on %Δweight (p = 0.017, η2 = 0.086) and %ΔBMI (p = 0.045, η2 = 0.067), but not on %Δheight (p = 0.952, η2 = 0.001), was observed, where the group tested at 4–6 p.m. under-reported weight and BMI more than the 2–4 p.m. group. The weekly metabolic equivalent (MET) × min did not correlate with %Δheight (r = 0.06, p = 0.657), but its correlations with %Δweight (r = −0.27, p = 0.051) and %ΔBMI (r = −0.238, p = 0.089) reached statistical significance. Participants in the early follicular phase reported BMI more accurately (p = 0.084, d = 0.68) than those in the mid-luteal phase. In conclusion, female students over-reported height and under-reported weight and BMI. Under-reporting weight and BMI is influenced by time of day and menstrual cycle phase. These findings should be considered by health professionals and researchers when administering questionnaires to female students.

Objective: To determine changes in flexibility, dynamic balance, agility, vertical jump, aerobic capacity, anaerobic capacity, and muscle strength performances in women in the early follicular and midluteal phases of the menstrual cycle. Material and Methods: The study included eumenorrheic women over 18 years of age. Ovulation was detected using LH urine kits. Physical activity levels were determined using the "International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form". Flexibility was evaluated with the sit-and-reach test, dynamic balance with the Y balance test, agility with the hexagon agility test, anaerobic power with the vertical jump test, aerobic capacity with the 20-meter shuttle run test, anaerobic capacity with the Wingate test, and muscle strength with an isokinetic dynamometer. Results: Twenty women participated in the study. The average age was 22.4 ± 0.9 years, and the average level of physical activity was 1162.2 ± 189.1 MET-min/week. The average menstrual cycle was 30.3 ± 0.5 days. The ‘minimum power’ value in Wingate test was higher during the midluteal phase compared with the follicular phase (p=0.048). The remaining parameters were not statistically different for the two menstrual phases (p>0.05). Conclusion: We conclude that different phases of the menstrual cycle affect performance parameters minimally and do not cause a statistically significant difference. Nevertheless, instead of establishing these changes as ‘clinically non-significant’, each athlete should be evaluated on an individual basis to develop individual training programs by taking into account the phases of the menstrual cycle.

Exercise Transients

The changes occurring in the esophageal temperature (Tes) thresholds for initiation of heat loss responses as affected by the circadian period and menstrual cycle were studied. Four women exercised at 60% peak Vo2 in 35 degrees C (ambient water vapor pressure 1.73 kPa) for 30 min at 0400 and 1600 during the follicular (F) and luteal (L) phase. Tes, arm sweating rate (msw), and forearm blood flow (FBF) were measured frequently. At rest, Tes averaged 0.3 degrees C higher during L than F at both 0400 and 1600 and approximately 0.4 degrees C higher at 1600 than at 0400 during both phases. During exercise transients, the slopes of the FBF:Tes and the msw:Tes relationships were not different among treatments. The thresholds for initiation of sweating and cutaneous vasodilation were higher at 1600 than 0400 during both phases. Thresholds during F at 0400 averaged 36.44 degrees C for msw and 36.80 degrees C for vasodilation. The thresholds during L at 1600 averaged 37.46 and 37.53 degrees C for sweating and vasodilation, respectively. Our data indicate that the thermoregulatory effector activity during exercise is a function of numerous inputs, and one of these may be hormonal or hormonal-like in action. Controlling time of day and menstrual cycle phase are as important as controlling for aerobic power, age, and fitness in studying female thermoregulatory responses during exercise.
