Over the past 10 years, researchers have been investigating the expression, regulation, and protective nature of stress proteins (SPs) during and following exercise. Since the expression of SPs have been shown to provide protection to cells and tissues, the importance of understanding their role during exercise cannot be understated. However the terminology, the myriad of stress proteins, and their complex regulation creates a confusing arena in which to enter. Exercise and Stress Response: The Role of Stress Proteins provides an up-to-date review on topics related to exercise and health, giving investigators the necessary background to pursue stress proteins.

Cardiovascular responses to physical and/ or mental stressors has been a topic of great interest for some time. For example, significant changes of cardiovascular control and reactivity have been highlighted as important mechanisms for the protective effect of exercise as a simple and effective, non medical therapy for many pathologies. However, despite the great number of studies performed to date (e.g. >54,000 entries in Pubmed for “cardiovascular stress”), important questions of the role stress has on cardiovascular function still remain. For instance, What factors account for the different cardiovascular responses between mental and physical stressors? How do these different components of the cardiovascular system interact during stress? Which cardiovascular responses to stress are the most important for identifying normal, depressed, and enhanced cardiovascular function? Can these stress-induced responses assist with patient diagnosis and prognosis? What impact does physical fitness have on the relationship between cardiovascular function and health? The current topic examined our current understanding of cardiovascular responses to stress and the significant role that physical fitness has on these responses for improved function and health. Manuscripts focusing on heart rate variability (HRV), heart rate recovery, and other novel cardiovascular assessments were especially encouraged.

In 1981, Plenum Press published a text entitled The Nature and Treatment of the Stress Response by Robert Rosenfeld, M. D. , and me. That text attempted to do what no other text from a major publisher had previously attempted, that is, to create a clinically practical guide for the treatment of excessive stress and its arousal-related syndromes-this to be captured between the same covers in combination with a detailed, clinically relevant pedagogy on the neurological and endocrinological foundations of the stress re sponse itself. That volume has enjoyed considerable success having found markets among practicing professionals and clinical students as well. The fields of psychosomatic medicine, health psychology, behavioral medicine, and applied stress research have appreciably expanded their boundaries since the publication of the aforementioned volume. Although remarkably little of the clinical utility of that volume has been eroded with time, it was felt that an updated and more integrative clinical textbook needed to be offered to practicing clinicians and students within clinical rather than simply create a second edition of training programs. Therefore, was made to create a significantly revised the original volume, the decision and expanded volume that would cover many of the same topics as the original volume but would provide a primary emphasis on the treatment of excessive stress and that would employ an integrative phenomenological model to facilitate that end. This present volume entitled A Clinical Guide to the Treatment of the Human Stress Response is the result.

In this time of quarantine and global uncertainty, it can be difficult to deal with the increased stress and anxiety. Using ancient self-care techniques rediscovered by Herbert Benson, M.D., a pioneer in mind/body medicine for health and wellness, you can relieve your stress, anxiety, and depression at home with just ten minutes a day. Herbert Benson, M.D., first wrote about a simple, effective mind/body approach to lowering blood pressure in The Relaxation Response. When Dr. Benson introduced this approach to relieving stress over forty years ago, his book became an instant national bestseller, which has sold over six million copies. Since that time, millions of people have learned the secret—without high-priced lectures or prescription medicines. The Relaxation Response has become the classic reference recommended by most health care professionals and authorities to treat the harmful effects of stress, anxiety, depression, and high blood pressure. Rediscovered by Dr. Benson and his colleagues in the laboratories of Harvard Medical School and its teaching hospitals, this revitalizing, therapeutic tack is now routinely recommended to treat patients suffering from stress and anxiety, including heart conditions, high blood pressure, chronic pain, insomnia, and many other physical and psychological ailments. It requires only minutes to learn, and just ten minutes of practice a day.

Physical activity has proven benefits for physical and psychological well-being and is associated with reduced responsiveness to physical stress. However, it is not clear to what extent physical activity also modulates responsiveness to psychosocial stress. A better understanding of the preventive role of physical activity in stress responsiveness may have direct clinical implications with major public health significance. The first study presented in this thesis examined whether different levels of physical activity modulate adrenal, autonomic, and subjective responses to an acute psychosocial stressor. Twenty-two trained men (elite sportsmen) and 22 healthy untrained men were exposed to the standardized psychosocial laboratory stressor, Trier Social Stress Test. Salivary free cortisol levels, heart rate, anxiety, mood, and calmness were repeatedly measured before and after stress exposure. In response to the stressor, cortisol levels and heart rate were significantly increased in all subjects. However, trained men exhibited significantly lower cortisol and heart rate responses to the stressor compared to untrained men. In addition, trained men showed significantly higher calmness and better mood, and marginally lower state anxiety. Elite sportsmen also exhibited significantly higher levels in self-efficacy. However, self-efficacy did not moderate stress reactivity. Taken together, trained men showed reduced reactivity to a psychosocial stressor, characterized by lower adrenocortical, autonomic, and psychological stress responses, independent of higher levels of self-efficacy. In the second empirical study presented in this thesis, we set out to determine possible moderating variables of the reduced physiological and psychological stress responses to a psychosocial stressor in elite sportsmen compared to untrained men. Elite sportsmen and untrained men differ not only in physical activity levels, but also in their psychological make-up and coping strategies, which may play a role for stress reactivity. Thus we investigated 100 male subjects with different physical activity levels (elite sportsmen, amateur sportsmen and untrained men). Specifically, we compared the combined influences of physical activity, psychological make-up (self-efficacy and competitiveness), and appraisal and coping strategies on psychosocial stress reactivity. Fitness levels were determined through lactate tests and by self reports of training regimes. As in the first study, psychosocial stress was induced with the highly standardized Trier Social Stress Test and psychological and physiological stress responses were assessed with measurements of changes in state anxiety, mood, calmness, heart rate, and free salivary cortisol levels. The three groups differed significantly in fitness levels, competitiveness levels, trait anxiety, and self-efficacy, as well as in appraisal and coping. Further analyses showed that stress reactivity varied with physical activity levels, in that elite sportsmen showed lower cortisol and cardiovascular reactivity, and state anxiety responses. Amateur sportsmen showed similar reactivity as elite sportsmen in cardiovascular and psychological parameters, but similar cortisol responses as untrained men. Competitiveness significantly influenced heart rate reactivity. Also, trait anxiety significantly influenced state anxiety responses. In addition, primary appraisal had a marginal effect on cortisol responses. These results may provide further evidence for a protective effect of physical activity against stress-related disorders and can be taken as a foundation for intervention studies in healthy and clinical populations.

This comprehensive update of the now classic text applies the most current findings across disciplines to the treatment of pathogenic human stress arousal. New and revised chapters bring together the art and science of intervention, based in up-to-date neuroscience, starting with an innovative model tracing the stress-to-disease continuum throughout the systems of the human body. The authors detail the spectrum of physiological and psychological treatments for the stress response, including cognitive therapy, neuromuscular relaxation, breathing exercises, nutritional interventions, and pharmacotherapy. They also assess the strengths and limitations of widely-used measures of the stress response and consider the value of personality factors, cultural considerations, and resilience in stress mediation. Included in the coverage: The anatomy and physiology of the human stress response. Advances in neuroscience: implications for stress. Crisis intervention and psychological first aid. Neurophysiological rationale for the use of the relaxation response. Physical exercise and the human stress response. The pharmacological management of stress reactions. Disaster Mental Health Planning. Cultural Awareness and Stress. The Fourth Edition of A Clinical Guide to the Treatment of Human Stress Response offers readers a dual perspective, exceedingly useful in examining the origins of the stress response, and in preventing and treating the response itself. This rich integrative volume will join its predecessors in popularity among practitioners and students across disciplines and specialties.
