The effect of the neuromuscular, strength and combined training on balance and performance in female basketball players
Objective: This investigation aimed to compare the effect of neuromuscular, strength and combined training on dynamic balance and sports performance including sprint, agility and power abilities in female basketball players. Method: In this semi-experimental study, 42 female professional basketball players (age 19-25 years) were assigned to three groups (neuromuscular (NM), strength (ST), and ...
متن کاملConspicuous male coloration impairs survival against avian predators in Aegean wall lizards, Podarcis erhardii
Animal coloration is strikingly diverse in nature. Within-species color variation can arise through local adaptation for camouflage, sexual dimorphism and conspicuous sexual signals, which often have conflicting effects on survival. Here, we tested whether color variation between two island populations of Aegean wall lizards (Podarcis erhardii) is due to sexual dimorphism and differential survi...

Background and Objectives: Considering the significance of mitochondrial biogenesis in physiological processes and the role of antioxidants thereof, the effect of saffron supplement on mitochondrial biogenesis with regard to high-intensity training has not be investigated so far. Therefore, the current study aims to explore the effect of eight weeks of sprint interval training with consuming sa...
متن کاملThe importance of ultraviolet and near-infrared sensitivity for visual discrimination in two species of lacertid lizards.
Male and female Lacertid lizards often display conspicuous coloration that is involved in intraspecific communication. However, visual systems of Lacertidae have rarely been studied and the spectral sensitivity of their retinal photoreceptors remains unknown. Here, we characterise the spectral sensitivity of two Lacertid species from contrasting habitats: the wall lizard Podarcis muralis and th...
