A New Approach to Express Regional Adiposity and Its Association with Blood Lipids, Inflammation and Insulin Resistance Markers
Álvarez-Carnero, Elvis
; Pinto, Ronei; Valamatos, Maria J.; Mil-Homens, Pedro S.; Sardinha, Luis, B. (2014-05-05)
Regional adiposity is classically related with inflammation, insulin resistance (IR) and an altered blood lipid profile. Traditionally, central adiposity expressed as a ratio (%FM) = fat mass/total mass of the region is ... -

Benitez-Porres, Javier; Raya, Juan Francisco; Correas-Gómez, Lorena; Carrillo-de-Albornoz, Margarita; Alvero-Cruz, Jose Ramon; Álvarez-Carnero, Elvis[et al.] (2014-06-26)
Introduction: Internal abdominal fat (IAF) measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has been proposed as subrogate of visceral adipose tissue, which is a cornerstone measurement for screening of metabolic ... -
Hydration characteristics of elite male climbers
Alvero-Cruz, Jose Ramon; Fernández-Vázquez, Rosalía; Fernández-García, José Carlos; Álvarez-Carnero, Elvis (2014-01-30)
INTRODUCTION: Significant scientific evidence documents the deleterious effects of reduced total body water (TBW) on endurance exercise performance, however, the influence of hypohydration on muscular strength, power and ... -
Lean Body Mass and Anaerobic Performance in Children and Adolescents
(UMA Editorial, 2017-09-21)The acquisition of lean body mass (LBM) during childhood and adolescence must be a main concern to ensure motor development and healthy growth. Participation in regular physical activity programs during the growth period ... -
Longitudinal differences of physical activity and adiposity in adolescents: a 2-year follow-up
Benitez-Porres, Javier; Alvero-Cruz, Jose Ramon; Barrera-Expósito, Jesús; Dorado-Guzmán, Manuel; Álvarez-Carnero, Elvis (2014-06-26)
It is commonly believed that boys are more physically active than girls, which could affect body composition changes during adolescence. One major point not always considered or controlled is the maturational differences ... -
Maturation level in adolescents: effects on body composition and physical activity changes
Benitez-Porres, Javier; Alvero-Cruz, Jose Ramon; Moore, Justin B.; Álvarez-Carnero, Elvis (2016-03-29)
Background and aims: Longitudinal studies help move researchers closer to understanding determinants and mediators of maturation, physical activity (PA) and adiposity. The aim of this study was to longitudinally explore ... -
Obesity and strength exercises in children: body composition influence
Fernández-García, José Carlos; Álvarez-Carnero, Elvis; Wärnberg, Julia; Alvero-Cruz, Jose Ramon (Karger, 2013)
Great levels of explosive dynamic strength (EDS) are needed to improve intermittent physical activity (PA) performance. Isometric strength (IS) has been associated with healthier metabolic and body composition profiles. ... -
Physical activity and health assessment in children and adolescents: application and usefulness of Physical Activity Questionnaire (PAQ)
Benitez-Porres, Javier (UMA Editorial, 2016)
Physical activity (PA) has been identified as an important agent in the prevention of chronic diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and metabolic syndrome. In order to know more precisely the levels of PA ... -
