Exercise and green tea extract stimulate fat oxidation and prevent obesity in mice
Article Abstract:
The combined effects of dietary supplementation with green tea extract (GTE) and regular exercise on the development of obesity in high fat-fed C57BL/6J mice is described. It is found that dietary GTE and regular exercise if combined stimulate fat catabolism not only in the liver but also in skeletal muscle and attenuate high-fat diet-induced obesity more effectively than alone by themselves in C57BL/6J mice.

Effects of active versus passive recovery on thermoregulatory strain and performance in intermittent-sprint exercise
Article Abstract:
The thermal strain of active recovery (AR) versus passive recovery (PR) during prolonged, intermittent-sprint exercise is investigated. Results observed that there is no difference in performance.
