football participation requires considerable utilization of both aerobic and anaerobic energy systems to match the high energetic demands of the sport. the consequent stresses imposed on the physiological and metabolic systems carries players to the threshold of exhaustion during match-play, from which they are required to recover in preparation for the subsequent game. a high number of players...

High endurance capacity, expressed by VO2max, is essential for optimal performance and is influenced by anthropometric and physiological parameters. 30 Indian young national level field-hockey players were studied to evaluate their endurance capacity and associated parameters. VO2max, relative physical work capacity at 170 bpm (rPWC), heart rate recovery (HRR3/6 at 3rd/6th minute), hemoglobin c...

Aerobic exercise can improve cardiorespiratory fitness in young people. Irises released into the bloodstream function to execute regulation of energy metabolism, triggering browning white adipose, which is useful mitochondrial biogenesis. The American College Sport Medicine (ACSM) recommends moderate intensity training with a frequency 3-5 times week, duration 20-60 minutes, using treadmill. St...

In haemophiliacs, the physical condition, muscular strength, aerobic resistance, anaerobic resistance and proprioception have all diminished. Muscle atrophy and instability, being more vulnerable to stressful motor demands, increase the risk of lesion and establish a vicious circle that is hard to break: pain, immobility, atrophy, articular instability and repeated bleeding episodes. In haemoph...

PURPOSE Adolescents are in increased risk for the development of obesity, while sport has been suggested as an effective means against adolescent obesity. The objectives of this study were to examine (a) the prevalence of overweightness/obesity, (b) the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and body fat percent (BF), and (c) the association between BMI, BF and physical fitness in adolescen...

The strong connection between physiological adaptations to training and the level of technical abilities of competitors is often difficult to establish since judo is a sport in which technique is dominant, while the physiological characteristics and their parameters make up the basis on which the judo athlete builds his individual technique and tactics. The aim of the paper is to present the re...

Background: Sport is an activity that has a positive effect on individual. DOMS occurs when person starts exercising after long period of inactivity and results from increase in the load intensity exercise. characterized by onset muscle soreness Any type places unusual muscles can cause DOMS.Objective: to determine existence active recovery passive reducing (delayed soreness).Method: The study ...

The purpose of the study was to compare the anthropometric, functional and sport-specific skill characteristics and goal orientations of male youth soccer players at the extremes of height and skeletal maturity in two competitive age groups, 11-12 and 13-14 years. The shortest and tallest players, and least and most skeletally mature players (n = 8 per group) within each age group were compared...

Mixed martial arts (MMA) is a relatively new sport and is a mixture of many different martial arts. Currently, study on the physiological characters in the sport is very limited. The present study evaluated the physiological characters in 5 active male MMA athletes at two occasions with one year between. Aerobicand anaerobic capacity were estimated through measurement of VO2max and anaerobic th...
