The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect a repeated sprint ability (RSA) test on contractile properties muscles in elite futsal players. A total 20 players completed RSA (7 × 30 m), and response from rectus femoris (RF) biceps (BF) both legs were analysed pre post through tensiomyography. There significant increment 30-m times third onwards (p < 0.05). percent decrement (RSADEC) with respect first significantly higher last sprint. did not show evidence lateral asymmetry any muscle...
545 Background: There is growing evidence that physical activity can enhance cancer care. Exercise programs have been shown to help manage treatment side effects, improve functional outcomes, overall quality of life, and reduce fatigue. Additionally, obesity cardiovascular disease are among the most common comorbidities in breast survivors. However, despite these benefits, exercise still not widely prescribed oncology patients. A multidisciplinary approach involving various healthcare...
This study aimed to investigate morphological, functional, and neuromuscular asymmetries on futsal players' lower limbs at different competitive levels. Sixteen male elite players from the Spanish National Futsal League thirteen sub-elite third division participated in this study. Morphological asymmetry was assessed through bioelectrical impedance (fat-mass (g %) lean-mass (g)). Functional by means of a 20-second static unipedal balance test. Finally, using tensiomiography tests both rectus...
This study examined physical and technical demands the influence of team's level on elite goalkeepers' performance during six consecutive seasons in Spanish Professional Soccer League. The data were obtained by analyzing a total 3,874 matches using multiple-camera computerized tracking system. match variables registered were: distance traveled; Sprinted number sprints; passes; successful pass percentage; recovered balls; lost ratio balls: balls, saves. results showed that saves made has...
The aim of this study was to analyse the influence age category on performance and muscle response after a Repeated Sprint Ability (RSA) test in elite youth soccer players. 62 players from three different categories (Under 14 [
The aim of this research was to evaluate the influence game surface and pitch size on physiological responses, jump performance perceptions sub-elite female soccer players playing four-a-side games. Sixteen were divided into four groups each. Three small-sided games (SSGs; size: 400 m2, 600 m2 800 m2) played three surfaces (dirt [DT], artificial turf [AT] natural grass [NG]). Players' heart rate (HR) monitored during each game. Before after SSG, participants performed two counter-movement...
Purpose : To characterize, for the first time, mechanical properties of treadmill surfaces along with a practical interpretation their influence on physiological and perceived demands during endurance running compared other widely used such as asphalt tartan tracks. Methods Ten experienced male runners performed 40-minute bout at preferred constant speed 3 different (after randomized, counterbalanced order 7-d interval between trials): asphalt, tartan, or treadmill. Shock absorption,...
Monitoring fatigue and performance is important for adjusting training loads in soccer. Therefore, knowing the status of player when applying a stimulus key to optimizing players’ development. This study aims evaluate interaction between internal external load, during matches, an elite youth soccer team. Methods: seventeen players highest Spanish category were monitored with GPS devices as well recording their nocturnal heart rate variability (HRV). We employed linear mixed model assess...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability a commercially available Local Position Measurement (LPM) tracking system when assessing distance running time at different speeds. Fifteen male healthy athletes performed 15-meter displacements walking, sprinting speed. Data recorded by LPM were compared those from reference equipment, consisting measuring tape electronic timing gates placed 0, 5, 10 15 m. Mean error, mean absolute SD measurement maximum error root square...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the neuromuscular response an agility and repeated sprint ability (RSA) test according level competition in futsal players. A total 33 players from two elite teams one amateur team participated study. participants completed t -test, a 30 m-speed test, RSA test. countermovement jump (CMJ) tensiomyography rectus femoris (RF) biceps (BF) both legs were carried out before after tests. revealed better times compared amateurs seven bouts, as well m ( p...
Abstract This study aimed to analyse the effect of playing surface temperature on muscular and thermal response a repeated-sprint ability (RSA) test in football players. Thirty-two male players (23 ± 5 years; 1.77 0.06 m; 71.2 6.7 kg) from two squads third-division club participated study. An RSA was carried out at high (45.34 2.53 °C) low (27.21 2.17 °C). Before after this test, assessed through tensiomyography thermograms. The results revealed that performance particularly increased higher...
Propose: the propose of this study was to discover influence sand and natural grass on muscle overuse in female rugby players after an induced fatigue test.Methods: participants were 15 amateur (23.4 ± 4.42 years).RSA Test consisted six -sprints 40 m (20 + 20 m) performed two different surfaces (natural sand).Before immediately completing RSA, contractile capacity biceps femoris rectus both legs evaluated through Tensiomyography (TMG).Results: also did 2 CMJ jumps before RSA assess...
Purpose : Recent studies have shown that soccer players’ responses are similar on natural grass (NG) and artificial turf (AT), but they did not control the mechanical properties of these surfaces. This work aimed to analyze influence game surface amateur physical physiological using a simulation protocol. Methods A total 16 players performed 3 bouts protocol AT, and, another day, NG. The both surfaces were recorded. order was randomly established for each participant. Physiological assessed...
The aim of this study was to analyse the influence environmental factors on mechanical behaviour artificial turf football pitches and evaluate effect induced wear properties surface. A series laboratory tests were conducted 31 samples turf. done by a Fédération Internationale de Football Association–accredited test institute. In wet conditions, shock absorption linear friction slide significantly higher than in dry whereas angle ball rebound lower. Regarding effect, significant increment...
The aim of this study was to define a reliable and sensitive test method for assessing Shock Absorption (SA), Vertical Deformation (VD), Energy Restitution (ER) in treadmill surfaces. A total 42 treadmills belonging four different models were included the study: (a) Technogym Jog700 Excite (n = 10), (b) Artis Run 12), (c) LifeFitness Integrity Series 97T 11), (d) DX 9). An advanced artificial athlete (AAA) device used assess SA, VD, ER at three locations along longitudinal axis each support...
The aim of this study was to analyse the effects type extracurricular sport on body composition, respiratory parameters, and physical condition in prepubertal pubertal girls. Four hundred eighty-five female athletes (aged 8–14) from different sports participated study. They were gathered into four groups according typology maturity level: ‘prepubertal girls who practise collective sports’ (PRE-CS), individual (PRE-IS), ‘pubertal (PUB-CS), (PUB-IS). cardiorespiratory fitness (the 20 m shuttle...
