Introduction: Exercise has beneficial effects on obesity and diabetes treatments. However, obese subjects do not closely adhere to training programs probably because of the monotony continuous exercise that is frequently proposed. To increase adherence programs, intermittent exercise, which less monotonous, may be more appropriate. Purpose: The purposes this study were determine perceptually hard (continuous vs exercise) analyze impact a program basis in women with without type 2 diabetes....

The aim of the study was to assess effects multidirectional plyometric training (MPT) on vertical jump height, change direction performance (CODP), and dynamic postural control (DPC) in young soccer players. Twenty-eight male players were randomly assigned an experimental group (EG, n = 14; age: 11.8 ± 0.4 years) a (CG, 11.6 0.5 years). EG introduced 8-week MPT, two days per week into their in-season training, while CG continued without change. Measurements CODP, DPC completed at beginning...
