The Effects of Exercise Training on Resting Prostacyclin and Thromboxane A2 in Older Adults
Richard D. Kauffman, Gary S. Sforzo, Blaise Frost, and Mikel K. Todd
Ten adult volunteers participated in Id weeks of cardiovascular exercise training (EG) to determine the effects of training on resting prostacyclin (PGI2) and thromboxane A2 (TXA2). Six volunteers of similar age served as sedentary controls (CG). Blood was collected in tubes after training and eicosanoids were measured by standard 125I RIA methods. Over the 16 weeks of the study, PGI2 decreased 48% for EG and 33% for CG. There were no between-group differences for PGI2 values. No significant within-group changes in TXA2 were found, whereas between-group pretraining TXA2 values were significantly different. A time main effect for PGI2 may indicate a seasonal shift in this eicosanoid: however, the additional 15% decrease in PGI2 for EG may be due to a training-induced reduction in PGI2 substrate and/or endothelial sensitivity to agonists. The lack of within-group changes in TXA2 may be due to a combination of high platelet turnover and a training stimulus inadequate to alter platelet function.

Exercise Training for Older Adults with Limitations in Physical Function
Claire Peel, Carolyn Utsey, and Jan MacGregor
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of an 8-week supervised exercise program on physiological measurements during treadmill walking, muscle strength, functional performance, and health status in older adults limited in physical function. Twenty-four participants were randomly assigned to an exercise group (EG, N = 13) or a control group (CG, N = 11), and were evaluated before and after the exercise program (EG) or 8-week period (CG). Evaluations included a progressive treadmill lest, strength testing, the Physical Performance Test (PPT), and the SF-36 Health Survey. The exercise program consisted of 3 sessions per week of brisk walking and strengthening exercises. The EG demonstrated increases in cardiorespiratory fitness and increases in treadmill walking time. The EG also demonstrated increases in force production in 3 of the 6 muscle groups that were tested. Both the EG and CG demonstrated improvements in PPT scores and in 2 health concepts on the SF-36 Health Survey.

However, few studies have demonstrated the reversibility of the benefits of exercise training on insulin sensitivity and GLUT4 content with the cessation of exercise training, which is quite common in daily

The muscle hypertrophic response to resistance exercise training can be modulated by manipulating variables, such as absolute load, total exercise volume, proximity to failure, and rest interval between exercise sets ( Burd et al., 2010b ; Mitchell et al., 2012 ; Schoenfeld et al., 2016 ). Less
