Background and objectives: Starting the multicomponent training sessions with aerobic-based exercises or resistance-based may have different effects on functional fitness body composition. Thus, aim of this study was to assess order in elderly women’s physical composition by training. Materials Methods: A sample 91 females, aged between 60 81, were randomly divided into three groups (A, B, C). Each group performed following exercises: Group consisted warm-up followed aerobic training,...
Abstract The purpose of this study was to use an inertial measurement unit (IMU) analyze variations in the jump outcomes concerning weekly training days, and dependencies between number jumps per minute height. An experimental research design adopted across three weeks final play-off a volleyball championship. Through IMU, external load seven male elite athletes top rating team from Portuguese 1st Division (age: 30.5 ± 3.5 years; height: 200.2 6.3 cm; body mass: 93.0 8.1 kg; BMI: 23.1 2.3...
The present study aimed to analyze the relationship between variables related internal and external loads of training competition races as well athletes' perceptions well-being measured throughout course a 4-week mesocycle. It also intra- inter-week variations in terms load well-being. included participation 47 male recreational athletes competing national championships trail running Portugal (age: 34.85 ± 8.88 years; height: 1.77 0.58 m; body mass: 65.89 3.17 kg). During 4 weeks, subjective...
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to characterize trail running injuries within a cohort Portuguese male and female recreational athletes.METHODS: retrospective (12 months), with data collected through an online survey. A total 719 athletes participated (529 190 female, average age: 38.01±7.78 years). valid questionnaire used collect: 1) demographic information; 2) general 3) training typology; 4) physical 5) (body location, number, type, reason, treatment, time without practice); 6)...
Considering that cognitive and motor dimensions of human beings grow together, primary school age is one the most important stages children's development, aim this study was to investigate relationship between executive functions gross skills in rural children aged 8-10 years. This descriptive correlational research conducted with 93 Iranian 8 10 A Behavior Rating Inventory Executive Function (BRIEF) questionnaire Test Gross Motor Development, second edition (TGMD-2) were used collect data...
The purpose of this study was to compare the external load, internal and technical efficacy between first second matches (M1 M2) occurring in congested fixtures (two two days) using number sets as a moderating factor. An observational analytic research design adopted. Data from official volleyball were collected during competitive period championship, comprising 14 games within 10 weeks. Ten male elite athletes (age: 21.7 ± 4.19 years age; experience: 6.2 3.8 years; body mass: 85.7 8.69 kg;...
The purpose of this study was to compare the variations weekly workload indices internal and external load measures across three weeks prior injury occurrences in trail runners. Twenty-five runners (age: 36.23 ± 8.30 years old; body mass: 67.24 5.97 kg; height: 172.12 5.12 cm) were monitored daily for 52 using global positioning systems (GPSs) determine total distance covered. Additionally, a rate perceived exertion (RPE) scale applied session-RPE (sRPE: RPE multiplied by training time)....
Abstract Study aim : To assess changes in physical fitness of amateur soccer players after a pre-season training period and baseline dependencies. Material methods Twenty-one were assessed during the pre-season. The following variables before two-month period: (i) cardiorespiratory fitness, (ii) strength power, (iii) change direction (COD). Results Significant decreases found for countermovement jump (CMJ) (p < 0.001; d = 1.161), drop (DJ) 0.014; 0.958), horizontal (HJ) 0.042; 0.640),...
The purpose of the study was to test within-week variations internal and external training intensity outcomes organized by days week. An 8-month observational period conducted during 2020-2021 season. sessions matches an elite volleyball team were monitored daily. data comes from 14 players (two setters, five middle blockers, outside hitters, two opposites) Portuguese 1st League (age: 21.7 ± 4.19 years age; experience: 6.2 3.8 years; body mass: 85.7 8.69 kg; height: 192.4 6.25 cm; BMI: 23.1 1.40 kg/m
Endurance sports like trail running constitute an extensive individual modality causing numerous physiological changes to occur in the athlete. In this sense, adequate monitoring of training load appears be essential improve competition performance. The aim study was two-fold: (i) analyze runners’ weekly variations four weeks leading up a competition, and (ii) determine relationship between pacing competitions their physical fitness workload parameters. Twenty-five amateur male runners (age:...
Trail running involves off-road over different surfaces of positive and negative unevenness. Given these particularities the associated physical demands, it is essential to understand this relationship how fitness levels influence performance. This study aimed analyze level variations during times season establish a between changes in accumulated load. Twenty-five trail athletes (age: 36.23 ± 8.30 years) were monitored 52 weeks. Three periods assessment implemented, while load those was...
<h3>Background</h3> Trail runners participate in remote natural environments posing challenges for medical providers to access and/or evacuate injured runners. This highlights the need improved injury prevention trail running using up-to-date evidence on factors associated with running. <h3>Objective</h3> To systematically review and frequently update risk epidemiology. <h3>Design</h3> Living systematic updated biannually over 5 years (2021–2025). <h3>Setting</h3> Eight electronic databases...
