Tsimahidis, K, Galazoulas, C, Skoufas, D, Papaiakovou, G, Bassa, E, Patikas, and Kotzamanidis, C. The effect of sprinting after each set heavy resistance training on the running speed jumping performance young basketball players. J Strength Cond Res 24(8): 2102-2108, 2010-The purpose this study was to investigate a 10-week combined with program strength, (RS), vertical jump Twenty-six junior players were equally divided in 2 groups. control (CON) group performed only technical preparation...

The purpose of the study was to investigate effects resistance training (RT) and sensorimotor combined with RT (SM-RT) on balance, 1 repetition maximum (RM), rate force development (RFD), squat jump (SJ) height. Twenty amateur soccer players were equally divided into 2 groups assigned as SM-RT group (age: 22 ± 1.7 years, body mass: 79.9 6.3 kg, height: 1.81 0.06 m) 21.3 1.3 77.4 9.3 1.78 0.04 m). Both trained over a 6-week period session units per week. performed (balance balance board)...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects prolonged basketball skills training on maximal aerobic power, isokinetic strength, joint mobility, and body fat percentage, in young players, controls same age. Twenty players 18 control boys participated study. Basketball both their school's physical education program a children's team program. Controls only All subjects were tested every 6 months (18 total, 11(1/2), 12, 12(1/2), 13 years old) for VO(2)max, peak torque values quadriceps...

The aim of this study was to examine the effect a 10-week combined resistance/sprint training programme in post-activation potentiation sprint performance before, between and after resistance sets. Twenty-six junior basketball players were randomly divided into control group. group performed consisting 5 sets at 5-8 RM (Repetition Maximum) half-squats with sprints each set. Post-activation considered as increase velocity trials executed compared trial before respective first last session....

Although athletes routinely perform warm-up and stretching exercises, it has been suggested that prolonged immediately before an activity might negatively affect the force production. Sixteen male pubescent soccer players participated in study to examine whether a routine duration of acute static is responsible for losses isokinetic peak torque All participants performed two protocols nonconsecutive training sessions. The first protocol was three times 15 s (volume 45) second 20 300). Range...

While athletes routinely perform warm-up and stretching exercise, it has been suggested that prolonged stretching, immediately prior to an activity, might affect negatively the force production. Fifteen professional soccer players participated in

This research was conducted to find out how effective the High Pick and Roll is, according defence's reaction. survey also investigates total impact of this offensive strategy on game's final result. The sample consisted 20 randomly selected basketball games Olympic Games in Rio (2016). results show that outcome can affect result game (p = 0.001). Furthermore, there is an important statistical difference between effectiveness against various defensive plays. When defending team played Trail...

Abstract Dancing is an excellent alternative exercise for improving health related physical fitness elements. Dance performance requires support from enhanced physiological requirements necessary dancers including cardiovascular fitness, muscle flexibility, muscular strength/power. A reduction in strength associate with injury risk and many succumb to problems such as the overtraining syndrome. Improvement lower body appears have positive effects on aspects of dance prevention. The qualities...

Drop jump (DJ) performance gain with increasing drop height is well documented in adults, but there still no clear evidence of such children. This study aimed to examine the differences DJ male adults and prepubescent boys by comparing heights tailored each individual's expressed as a percentage their squat (SJ) performance. Fifteen (9-11 y) 15 men (19-27 executed DJs from that were set at 75%, 100%, 125%, 150% best SJ (DJ

Background: Traditionally, stretching protocols are basic components of warm-up aiming to improve performance and reduce injuries. However, the literature suggests that different during may have diverse effects on performance. Objective: The purpose this study was compare acute three force sense, dynamic flexibility, reaction time movement time. Methods: included twenty-five participants who were TaeKwonDo young male players (age = 11.78 ± 1.66 years.). All performed one following days: (a)...

The aim of the study was to investigate whether a 1-minute high-intensity Re-Warm Up (RWU) protocol on cycle ergometer could attenuate negative effects passive rest basketball players' performance. Twelve semi-professional players completed two trials consecutive days in counterbalanced, randomized design with repeated measures. Following structured warm-up (WU), included: a) 15 minutes (CON) and b) 13 rest, followed by 1 minute cycling at 80% VO2max (RWU80). Post-WU post-RWU measurements...

The aim of this study was to examine the short-term effects different types warming up on range motion and motor abilities rhythmic gymnasts ballet athletes. Twenty-five athletes participated in (11 dancers 14 gymnasts), aged 14,72±1,43. All participants followed an intervention consisting two warm-up protocols, one with static stretching exercises other dynamic warm protocol. protocols were implemented days for week. Range (ROM) hop test measurements carried out before after each session....
