McCafferty, William B.; Horvath, Steven M. – Research Quarterly, 1977
Selection of proper competitive activities for athletes is discussed in relation to the acknowledged fact that cellular adaptation is dependent upon the specific program employed in training for competitive events. (MB)

Karpman, Mitchell B.; Vaccaro, Paul – Research Quarterly, 1979
A statistically proper method for evaluating change in cardiorespiratory performance as a function of experimental condition is presented.(JD)

Allen, T. Earl; And Others – Research Quarterly, 1976
This study of high sustained heart rates observed during circuit weight training involving high resistance and low repetitions indicates that such training has no concurrent cardiovascular training effect. (MB)

Weltman, Arthur; Katch, Victor – Research Quarterly, 1976
No statistically meaningful differences in steady-state vo2 uptake for high and low max vo2 groups was indicated in this study, but a clear tendency was observed for the high max vo2 group to reach the steady-state at a faster rate. (MB)

Burke, Edmund J. – Research Quarterly, 1977
The average female can expect relative improvement in aerobic power similar to that of a male following a period of systematic training. (Author/MJB)

Moffatt, Robert J.; And Others – Research Quarterly, 1977
It was concluded that placement of tri-weekly training sessions is not critical with respect to enhancement of aerobic capacity in college-age males. (MJB)

Teeple, J.; Massey, B. – Research Quarterly, 1976
Results of research on the influence of body size and composition on peak force and maximal rate of static strength exertion as measured from force-time curves indicates that rate of force production is somewhat independent of peak force, yet influenced by body size and composition, as is peak force.

Thomas, Jerry R. – Research Quarterly, 1980
Changes in information processing during child, adolescent, and adult development affect motor performance. Several of the memory processes that change with development produce increased performance, processing speed, and control processes. (CJ)

Milne, Conrad; And Others – Research Quarterly, 1976
Tests indicate that males have better performance than females in motor performance tests, with the exception of flexibility; black children ran significantly faster than white children in the 30-yd dash, but significant race differences were not evident on any other motor items. (JD)
