The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of an eight-week walk/jog program upon strength retention. Twenty-four male executives from Dallas, Texas represented the sample size Following eight weeks of resistive training, all subjects were pretested for strength and endurance measures. After the eight-week walk/jog program, all subjects were then retested adhering to the same pretest protocol. A two-way analysis of variance with repeated measures was used to test for mean group differences between pretest and posttest strength measures. A t-test for dependent means was utilized to ascertain differences in cardiovascular measurements. The alpha chosen to test the null hypotheses was the 0.05 level of significance. Results indicated that muscular strength was retained during the eight-week walk/jog program. No change in upper or lower extremity strength occurred, but significant improvements in maximal oxygen consumption and treadmill time were evidenced.

The purposes of the study were to determine (1) the effect which exercise of the nondominant arm would have upon the reaction-movement time of the dominant and nondominant arms, (2) the degree to which fatigue transfers from one arm to the other arm, and (3) the influence of lateral dominance upon the reaction-movement time of both the dominant, and nondominant arms.

The purpose of the study was to construct and validate a wall volley test to be used in determining one's over-all playing ability in aerial tennis. The specific problem was to determine the reliability and validity of the wall volley test.
