Exploring the link between recreational substances and physical activity in children and adolescents
Substance use and physical inactivity in youths could influence brain development, academic performance, and long-term physical and mental health outcomes. Therefore, this study examined the associations between substance use and weekly days of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) among children and adolescents. Data were drawn from the Health Behavior in School-Aged Children (HBSC) cross-sectional study (2013–2019), comprising 358,391 c…
Acute effects of isotonic eccentric exercise on the neuromuscular function of knee extensors vary according to the motor task
Introduction Eccentric exercise has often been reported to result in muscle damage, limiting the muscle potential to produce force. However, understanding whether these adverse consequences extend to a broader, functional level is of apparently less concern. In this study, we address this issue by investigating the acute and delayed effects of supramaximal isotonic eccentric exercise on neuromuscular function and motor performance of knee extenso…
Comparison of Physical Fitness Profiles Obtained before and during Covid-19 Pandemic in Two Independent Large Samples of Children and Adolescents
COVID-19 pandemic restrictions might have negatively affected the health-related physical fitness of children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to contrast the body composition and physical fitness data of two independent samples of children and adolescents obtained from an online database (DAFIS project) before (n = 15,287) and during (n = 2101) the first academic year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The results revealed higher values for the…
