Variability analysis of muscle activation symmetry to identify indicators of individual motor strategy
Introduction In Paralympic powerlifting competitions, movement execution symmetry is a technical requirement influenced by individual athlete characteristics and motor strategies. Identifying the elements associated with individual motor strategies can offer valuable insight for improving sport performance. Therefore, this case series study aimed to explore muscle activation symmetry and its intra- and inter-individual variability to determine th…
The Impact of a 14-Day Altitude Training Camp on Olympic-Level Open-Water Swimmers’ Sleep
Despite the common belief that sleep quality at altitude is poor, the scientific evidence to support this notion is still modest. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to evaluate possible changes of actigraphy-based and subjective sleep parameters in a group of elite open-water swimmers during a 14-day altitude training camp (ATC) at 1500 m. The study subjects were five Olympic-level open-water swimmers (mean age: 25.0 ± 3.2 years; 3 f…
Concurrent and Predictive Validity of an Exercise-Specific Scale for the Perception of Velocity in the Back Squat
these results show that the PV Squat Scale is a valid and reliable tool that can be used to accurately quantify exercise intensity
Motor Competence in Individuals with Down Syndrome
In children, motor competence (MC) and the amount of physical activity are tightly interconnected. In adults with Down syndrome (DS), MC has been poorly addressed, resulting in a limited understanding of the possibility to improve MC over time. Here, we aim to: (1) investigate MC in adults with DS by comparing them with a group of typically developed peers and (2) verify the effect of an adapted karate program on MC. Adults with DS (DSG; n = 57) …
