The effect of exercise complexity on trunk muscle activation and perceived exertion during body-weight training in recreationally trained adults
Introduction The aim of the present study was to investigate the acute effects of varying exercise complexity on trunk muscle activity in recreationally trained adults during seven trunk-specific body-weight (BW) exercises. Methods Twenty-eight participants were recruited (15 women and 13 men, age: 32 ± 9 years, height: 173 ± 9 cm, body mass: 73 ± 10 kg, training experience: 15 ± 9 years). Participants performed seven trunk-specific BW exercises …
Assessing the individual relationships between physical test improvements and external load match parameters in male professional football players—a brief report
Purpose This study aimed to explore whether a meaningful improvement in physical performance following an in-season strength training intervention can be related to external load match parameters at an individual level in professional male football players. Methods Eight male professional football players (25.4 ± 3.1 years, 184.1 ± 3.4 cm, 79.3 ± 2.2 kg) completed a 10-week strength intervention period in addition to football-specific training an…
Associations between Power Training-Induced Changes in Body Composition and Physical Function in Older Men
The present study's findings indicate that participants with a body composition of ~20% body fat displayed the highest level of physical function at baseline. Furthermore, despite small pre-post changes in body fat, the results indicate that those who either preserved their body fat percentage or experienced minor alterations observed the greatest improvements in physical function
Simulated Game-Based Ice Hockey Match Design (Scrimmage) Elicits Greater Intensity in External Load Parameters Compared With Official Matches
Objective A limited number of studies have explored the external load experienced in indoor sports such as ice hockey, and few the link between training and match performance. As a paucity exists within this topic, this study explored whether a simulated match design (i.e., scrimmage) could be representative of official match demands and elicit similar external loads as in official matches in a group of elite youth male ice hockey players. Method…
