It is obvious that sport is health, that it prevents a thousand diseases and that athletes reach healthier old people. It is obvious, but in the world of science, there were still some heads left to tie to this consensus. Now, a researcher from the University of Granada has fine-tuned his doctoral thesis, confirming that exercise increases levels of the anti-aging protein Klotho. The research of Francisco José Amaro-Gahete, researcher and professor of the Department of Physiology of Medicine of the University of Granada (UGR), has given in the key. It has just been recognized by the British Journal of Sport Medicine (the most prestigious scientific journal in the field of Sports Science) as the best study of sports medicine in the world. This is the first time that a Spaniard has received this recognition. The merit of this young man passionate about science, medicine and sport in Font Obejuna (Córdoba) is enormous. Maximum international recognition, but having received “0 funding”. The most he has explained is with the collaboration of the San Cecilio University Hospital, in Granada. “Getting into this is a background race in which we are few and we are precarious, you know what research is like in this country …” he sighs. Against aging, no pain-no gain The success of this work lies in the connection established between: Klotho was the name of the youngest daughter of the god Zeus and spun the threads of life, and the Klotho protein warns and serves to prevent diseases related to aging such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis or even neural conditions. A new sports doctrine “This opens a new avenue for research, gives us many new possibilities for intervention, both in medicine and in the sports approach”, as the study delves into the effect that different patterns of The research carried out by the Department of Physiology (Faculty of Medicine) and the Department of Physical Education and Sports of the UGR found that all physical exercise improves cardiometabolic health, but that some specific medical programs had a higher incidence. important in the Klotho protein. and how does that translate into my day-to-day life ?, you’ll wonder wondering what workouts and exercises give you time to push through the agenda. “I’m not a friend of making generic recommendations because sport is like medicine, it needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis,” warns Amaro, but he recommends interspersing muscle strength exercise sessions of up to 20 minutes with regular cardiovascular training go for a run or bike more than 30 minutes-, between 2 and 3 times a week respectively.And today that many exercise at home to avoid closed gyms and crowds, it is advisable to self-assess.

In Spain, sports medicine is relegated to the wagon of medicine. Given that sport is health, Amaro regrets that Spain is one of the few countries where the MIR specialty does not include sports medicine. “I’m sure that in thousands of cases, a good sports training program improves on medicine-based treatments. It’s a shame that sport is absent from diagnoses, that they are two worlds so disconnected.”

Intense sport is perfect for preventing aging. This is revealed by Francisco Amaro in his doctoral thesis which has just been awarded as the best in the world in sports medicine. This is the first time that a Spaniard has received this recognition thanks to the direct link between aging and physical exercise.

It is obvious that sport is health, that it prevents a thousand diseases and that athletes reach healthier old people. It is obvious, but in the world of science, there were still some heads left to tie to this consensus. Now, a researcher from the University of Granada has fine-tuned his doctoral thesis, confirming that exercise increases levels of the anti-aging protein Klotho.

The research of Francisco José Amaro-Gahete, researcher and professor of the Department of Physiology of Medicine of the University of Granada (UGR), has given in the key. It has just been recognized by the magazine British Journal of Sport Medicine (the most prestigious scientific journal in the field of Sports Science) as the best study of sports medicine in the world. This is the first time that a Spaniard has received this recognition.

“It was already hard to believe he was among the 17 candidates selected, but when Monday [12 de abril] in the afternoon they called me to announce that I was winning, I couldn’t believe it. Note that there are research departments in the United States, Russia, or the United Kingdom! “, He explains to Sputnik still excited.

The merit of this young man passionate about science, medicine and sport in Font Obejuna (Córdoba) is enormous. Maximum international recognition, but having received “0 funding”. The most he has explained is with the collaboration of the San Cecilio University Hospital, in Granada. “Getting into this is a background race in which we are few and far between, you know what research is like in this country …” he sighs.

Against aging, no pain-no gain

The success of this work lies in the connection established between:

cardiometabolic health;
the concentration of Klotho protein. This protein is a biomarker, its presence and concentration are synonymous with aging.

A good (and amazing) habit that will help you stay young
Klotho was the name of the youngest daughter of the god Zeus and spun the threads of life, and the Klotho protein alerts and serves to prevent aging-related diseases such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis or even neural conditions.

“With these premises we question ourselves: if exercise is health, it may have a direct implication through Klotho levels,” and so has Francisco Amaro, finding a direct link between exercise and slowing aging.

A new sports doctrine

“This opens a new avenue to research, gives us many new possibilities for intervention, both in medicine and in the sports approach,” as the study delves into the effect different patterns of exercise have.

Anabolic steroids age the brain

Research conducted by the Department of Physiology (Faculty of Medicine) and the Department of Physical Education and Sports of the UGR found that all exercise improves cardiometabolic health, but that some specific medical programs had a greater impact on the Klotho protein.

“We found that high-intensity interval training, that is, exercising less time but with more intensity, improved in several parameters,” good news, given that much of the population most interested in this study, “men and women between 40 and 65 years,” leads a sedentary lifestyle, with little time for sports.

And how does that translate into my day-to-day life ?, you’ll wonder what training and exercise gives you time to push into the agenda. “I’m not a friend of making generic recommendations because sport is like medicine, you have to analyze it case by case,” warns Amaro, but does recommend interspersing muscle strength training sessions of up to 20 minutes with the usual cardiovascular training – go for a run or bike more than 30 minutes-, between 2 and 3 times a week respectively.

How much exercise should you do according to your age? The WHO has the answer
And today that many exercise at home to avoid closed gyms and crowds, it is advisable to self-assess. For this it is useful to remember our own diagnosis of intensity, the perceived effort, the so-called Borg staircase. “It usually coincides with the rating of the intensity of the effort that you yourself diagnose with your heart rate, you just need to practice and learn to know our body better.”

Spain is not a country for sports medicine

Francisco Amaro tells us about the juggling he does to comply with what he recommends, at the age of 29 he exercises practically every day and is passionate about aptitude i crossfit, even though “research and teaching can take me 13 hours a day, it’s all organization.”

The terrible consequences of exhausting or sudden muscle work

International recognition for his work puts the focus on one issue. In Spain, sports medicine is relegated to the wagon of medicine. Given that sport is health, Amaro regrets that Spain is one of the few countries where the MIR specialty does not include sports medicine. “I’m sure that in thousands of cases, a good sports training program improves on medicine-based treatments. It’s a shame that sport is absent from diagnoses, that they are two worlds so disconnected.”
