Response to exercise in paraplegics and able-bodied subjects: A new formula to estimate the theoretical oxygen uptake
Article Abstract:
A study is conducted to compare the response to physical exercise between subjects with spinal cord injury (SCI) and able bodied (AB) subjects with the aim of developing a new formula for the indirect calculation of oxygen consumption (VO2). SCI males, respect to AB subjects, show differences in ventilatory response to exercises.

Short-term effects of a single exercise bout at moderate altitude on blood pressure
Article Abstract:
The effect of a single exercise bout at moderate altitude on blood pressure (BP) is evaluated. An association is found between the transient decrease in systolic BP as well as diastolic BP and exposure to a single bout of exercise at moderate altitude that is more pronounced in hypertensives.

Comparison of forward-, backward-, and lateral-motion exercise at self-selected intensities
Article Abstract:
The physiological responses to forward- (FM), backward- (BM), and lateral-motion (LM) exercise at self-selected intensities are investigated. The criteria for maintaining cardiovascular fitness were met at self-selected intensities in all 3 modes.
