According to the latest research, genes play a key role in how the body responds to exercise. So scientists say training needs to be tailored to your genes. See below for more details!
A study by scientists from Anglia Ruskin University (ARU) in Great Britain shows interesting conclusions.
Fitness Cardiovascular fitness, anaerobic endurance and muscle strength are the main factors that influence well-being, physical condition and quality of life. The involved participants performed the training program prepared for them. After strength training of individual muscle groups,72% of people, there were differences in the performance scores of . According to scientists, the cause may be a genetic predisposition.
Genes and physical activity: what is the connection between them?
Researchers analyzedthe data of 3012 participantsaged 18 to 55 who were not having an active lifestyle. This allowed them to test the connection between genes and three types of exercise.
Each gene has specific alleles that can affect its effectiveness. It is these alleles that make every organism react differently to the same exercise, the researchers speculate. The study identifiedaround 13genes and alleles associated with them responsible for the body's response to exercise, including: exercises to strengthen the strength of the muscles, heart and respiratory efficiency.
On the basis of the obtained results, scientists concluded that before starting physical activity, it is worthwhile toperform a gene test . Thanks to them, a person will have the chance to adapt exercises that will be effective for him. This diagnosis is also recommended for patients who require medical rehabilitation and for athletes.
These latest scientific reports were commented on by the author of the study, Henry Chung himself, noting that each human body has a different genetic structure and therefore reacts completely differently to the same set of exercises. - First, it is worth identifying the form of the gene, and then adapting a specific training program only to it. Such action may increase the effectiveness of training.
The results of the study were published in the scientific journal "PLOS ONE".
