Sports efficiency in activities which strength and speed are the determining factors has been associated to ACTN3 gene, is responsible for expression of α-actinin-3. Soccer a mainly aerobic sport because its long duration, but acute actions that define game demand lot speed. The purpose present study was compare performance capacity soccer players with different genotype groups (XX, RX, RR) strength, speed, endurance tests. Two hundred professional Brazilian first division teams participated...

Muscle injuries are one of the biggest medical problems in professional soccer. Evidence has suggested that genetic polymorphism is a mediating factor physiological and structural alterations can lead to muscle injury. The TRIM63 gene may affect MuRF-1 protein, which vital regulation mass, differentially regulated by exercise mode, contraction, training status. However, central aspects relationship between variations, environment, still need be explained. This study aimed investigate whether...

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between lower limbs skin temperature (Tsk) recorded by infrared thermography and creatine kinase (CK) response following an official soccer game. A professional player, from first division Brazilian League, defender, 27 years 183 cm height was analyzed. Measures Tsk with a thermal camera blood CK concentrations were obtained 24 hr before (24H-PRE), (24H-POST) 48 (48H-POST) after match. results showed that values 193 U/L before, rising...
