Practice characteristics and perceived benefits and risks of cold-water immersion in healthy adults: Insights from recreational settings
Comparison of the Cardiovascular Effects of Extreme Psychological and Physical Stress Tests in Male Soccer Players
Both HRV and BP are sensitive physiological parameters to measure the impact of extreme physical and/or psychological stress
Secular growth trend characteristics of the body structure in Hungarian athlete boys
are analyzed and compared to that of the reference values of the Hungarian National Growth Study I and II (HNGS I - 1980's, Eiben et al. 1991; HNGS II - 2003-2006, Bodzsár & Zsákai 2007). The individual data were collected in Budapest (capital) basketball club boys aged 10-15 years (N = 1376). Body measurements were taken by the first author by the request of coaches and parents. Secular trend was characterized by the changes in some of the measu…
Physiological and Psychological Responses to a Maximal Swimming Exercise Test in Adolescent Elite Athletes
Our models can be used to explain the hormonal ratio changes (37.5-89.8%). Based on the results this method can induce hormonal response in elite adolescent athletes and can be used to notice irregularities with repeated measurements
The Relationship between Body Fat Percentage and Some Anthropometric and Physical Fitness Characteristics in Pre- and Peripubertal Boys
The main aim of this study was to compare anthropometric and physical fitness indicators of boys of the same chronical age but with different fat percentages. Subjects were Hungarian boys aged 9−13 years ( N = 6919). Anthropometry was measured according the guidelines of the International Biological Program. Relative body fat was estimated by Drinkwater−Ross's method (1980); Conrad's growth type of physique was also estimated (1963). Physical fit…
Reference data for ultrasound bone characteristics in Hungarian children aged 7–19 years
Changes in the bone parameters among 7-19-year-old Hungarian children depended on age, anthropometric dimensions and the level of PA. The normative data could be used for monitoring QUS bone parameters in children, leading to more effective interventions for healthy bones
Osteocalcin gene polymorphism and bone density in Hungarian athletes
Osteoporosis, a public health problem, is mainly determined on the basis of bone mineral density (BMD). The rs1800247 polymorphism of the osteocalcin gene is associated with BMD. The results of one recent Polish study led us to the examination of a possible connection between polymorphism and bone ultrasound parameters in the Hungarian population, including elite athletes. A total of 302 subjects participated in the study. Genotype analysis was c…
Bone characteristics, anthropometry and lifestyle in late adolescents
BACKGROUND: Physical activity and adequate calcium intake have favourable influences on the bone status, while body structure and function can be altered with lifestyle changes. The use of portable quantitative ultrasound measurements provides a non-invasive method of evaluating bone characteristics. AIM: To analyze relationships between physical activity, anthropometric variables, milk consumption and bone parameters in late adolescents. SUBJECT…
Body Mass and Body Fat in Hungarian Schoolboys: Differences between 1980–2005
The prevalence of juvenile excess weight keeps growing in the more developed world (WHO, 1998). The aim of the study was to compare the prevalence of overweight and obesity in Hungarian schoolboys in 1980 and 2005.Two independent representative data collections were performed in volunteer boys aged between 6.51 and 18.50 years in the same 90 settlements of the country in 1980 (n=13,061) and 2005 (n=13,060). Height, body mass, and five skinfolds w…
Longitudinal differences and trends in body fat and running endurance in Hungarian primary schoolboys
Long-range repeated-measure sample differences in body dimensions, body composition and physical performance are considered accurately describing the changes in a population's life standards and lifestyle. The aim of our study was to analyse such changes in longitudinal studies repeated after a 15-year interval. Two six-monthly repeated data collections (1987-1991 and 2002-2006, respectively; n = 136 and n = 147, respectively) were carried out in…
Direct and indirect interrelations between anthropometric and physiological variables in athletic and non-athletic adolescent girls: A Path-Analytic Study
Our previous analysis of anthropometric and exercise test data of 62 athletic and 56 non-athletic girls (age range 10.5-15.5 years) showed that the intensity of habitual exercise failed to discriminate between the group means of the studied variables. However, the patterns of intervariable correlations differed between the subgroups categorized by physical activity. The present paper studies the problem of this difference further by using explora…
