Despite the progress in management of pandemic caused by COVID-19, it is necessary to continue exploring and explaining how this situation affected athlete population around world improve their circumstances reduce negative impact changes lifestyle conditions that were necessitated due pandemic. The aim study was analyze moderating influence physical activity (PA) dietary habits on COVID-19 experience sleep quality elite amateur athletes.A total 1,420 (40.1%) (59.9%) athletes (41% women; 59%...
During breaks or playing period changes, players' accumulated workload, physiological alterations, body composition factors, sleep, and health-related qualities can factor into soccer performance. This research examined the impact of prolonged pauses, including due to 2022 FIFA World Cup an earthquake tragedy, on running displacements ball in-play duration during 2022/23 Turkish Super League season. The secondary purpose was determine relationship between performance metrics competition...
Primary study aim was defining prevalence of obesity, physical activity levels, digital game addiction level in adolescents, to investigate gender differences, relationships between outcomes. Second predicting based on anthropometric measurements, levels. Cross-sectional design implemented. Participants aged 9–14 living Kirikkale were part the study. The sample consists 405 231 girls (57%) and 174 boys (43%). Self-reported data collected by questionnaire method from a random adolescent...
This study aims to examine the effects of socio-economic status and physical activity on anxiety, depression, sleep quality among college students during COVID-19 pandemic, with an emphasis gender differences in these relationships. In this cross-sectional study, a total 525 participants, including 93 men 432 women from university setting were recruited. Data collected through online surveys, using standard tools, that assessed status, levels, quality. For data analysis, regression analyses...
The purpose of this study was to test the relationships between training workload (WL) parameters with variations in anaerobic power and change direction (COD) under-16 soccer players. Twenty-three elite players under 16 years were daily monitored for their WL across 20 weeks during competition season. Additionally, assessed three times anthropometric, body composition, COD, power. A correlational analysis mean differences assessments accumulated conducted. Moreover, a regression executed...
The purposes of this study were (i) to analyze the variations in maximal oxygen consumption (VO 2m ax ), heart rate (HR max at rest, acceleration, speed, agility, anaerobic sprint test (RAST) peak power (RPP), RAST minimum power, average (RAP), and fatigue index (RFI) during competitive season, using maturation status accumulated training load as covariates, (ii) describe differences between responders non-responders relation baseline levels. Twenty-three elite players from same team...
The purpose of this study was two-fold: (1) to describe weekly average values for training monotony (TM) and strain (TS) their variations across the full soccer season, based on number accelerations decelerations; (2) analyze differences between starter non-starter players TM TS pre-season three in-season periods. In total, 21 professional were evaluated over 48 weeks during full-season. calculated decelerations at zone 1, 2 3, respectively. results revealed that starters presented higher...
This study sought to analyze the relationship between in-season training workload with changes in aerobic power (VO 2m ax ), maximum and resting heart rate (HR max HR rest linear sprint medium (LSM), short test (LSS), soccer players younger than 16 years (under-16 players). We additionally aimed explain fitness levels during through regression models, considering accumulated load, baseline levels, peak height velocity (PHV) as predictors. Twenty-three male sub-elite aged 15.5 ± 0.2 (PHV:...
Betaine supplementation may enhance body composition outcomes when supplemented chronically during an exercise program. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect betaine on development-related hormones, composition, and anthropometrics in professional youth soccer players a competitive season. Twenty-nine (age, 15.45 ± 0.25 years) were matched based upon position then randomly assigned group (2 g/day; n = 14, BG) or placebo (PG, 15). All subjects participated team practices,...
Abstract Background This study aimed to compare the match running performance between bottom- and top-ranked teams in professional soccer players over 2020 season of Brazilian National 2nd Division League. In addition, this verified independent interactive effects playing position contextual factors on outputs these teams. Methods Forty-eight male outfield participated (top-ranked team, n = 24; bottom-ranked 24). The distance- accelerometry-based measures were recorded during 69 matches...
This study aimed to analyze the correlations among weekly (w) acute workload (wAW), chronic (wCW), acute/chronic ratio (wACWR), training monotony (wTM), strain (wTS), sleep quality (wSleep), delayed onset muscle soreness (wDOMS), fatigue (wFatigue), stress (wStress), and Hooper index (wHI) in pre-, early, mid-, end-of-season. Twenty-one elite soccer players (age: 16.1 ± 0.2 years) were monitored on load well-being for 36 weeks. Higher variability wAW (39.2%), wFatigue (84.4%), wStress...
The aim of this study was to compare the effects small-sided games (SSGs) and running-based high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on body composition physical fitness youth female soccer players.This followed a randomized parallel design. Twenty-four players (age: 18.63 ± 2.36 years) were randomly allocated two groups (SSG, n = 12; HIIT, 12). intervention had duration eight weeks, consisting three sessions per week. Players assessed twice (pre- post-intervention) for anthropometrics,...
Although several studies have shown that the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) lockdown has had negative impacts on mental health and eating behaviors among general population athletes, few examined long-term effects elite sub-elite athletes. The present study aimed to investigate impact of COVID-19 in versus athletes two years into pandemic. A cross-sectional comparative was conducted between March April 2022, involving from 14 countries, using a convenient non-probabilistic snowball...
The study aims to assess and compare the predictive effectiveness of football-related injuries using external load data a decision tree classification algorithm by unidimensional approach. sample consisted 25 players from one 16 teams participating in Persian Gulf Pro League during 2022--2023 season. Player injury raw GPS all training competition sessions throughout football league season were gathered (214 34 sessions). acute-tochronic workload ratio was calculated separately for each...
