Background: This study aims to investigate the impact of neuromuscular training (NMT) on static and dynamic postural balance (PB) among high-level male runners with intellectual disability. Method: Twenty-seven runners were randomly assigned to a NMT group and a control group who maintained their conventional training. Static and dynamic PB were…

Background: Online exercise programming reduces transportation and scheduling barriers. This study explored the feasibility of online resistance training for individuals with Down syndrome. Method: Thirteen individuals (3 M/10 F, age: 21.7 ± 5.9 years) began a 10-week programme delivered using a website with pre-recorded exercise videos (45--60…

The differences in strength development processes and maximum strength levels between cisgender men and women -- i.e. the 'strength gap' -- are considerably fraught topics, with significant implications for our broader understandings of sex and gender. The polarization of exercise science and sociocultural research about the relationships between…

Background: Many adults with intellectual disabilities live a sedentary lifestyle, have low levels of functional fitness and are overweight. The purpose of this study was to determine whether an exercise intervention with activities which are simple, fun, accessible and adapted for socialising in a group would elicit significant improvements in…

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of basic vocal training exercises for students at Yamaha Music School in Mahasarakham, Thailand, using a quantitative research approach. The research focused on collecting measurable numerical data and was divided into two main components: content validity assessment and effectiveness evaluation of…

Acute athletic performance differences may ultimately decide what teams or individuals are successful in competition. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of a novel acupressure modality in comparison to a dynamic warm-up and contrast training on acute athletic performance in National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA)…

Purpose: This study compared the acute effects of two different resistance training methods on heart rate variability, blood pressure, and rating of perceived exertion in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods: Ten patients with Child-Pugh A (seven women and three men) participated in two experimental sessions, in random order: The traditional set…

Obesity is a prevalent and ever-expanding issue across the country which affects many aspects of the afflicted lives. Schools can help combat the spread of obesity through the frequency of contact with students and the implementation of physical activity via physical education. However, many districts understaff and underfund physical education.…

To assess the acute effect of strength exercises combined with EMS on blood flow and muscle stiffness using SMI and SWE. This prospective study included 20 participants. Subjects were divided into groups base on calisthenics strength training with EMS and without EMS. Rectus femoris (RF) blood flow was measured at rest and post-exercise with the…

Vertical jump performance is vital to many sports and is predictive of power output. Both resistance exercises and plyometric exercises have been shown to increase vertical jump performance. Identifying the type of exercise that increases jump height the most may be useful to coaches and athletes worldwide. The literature has stated that both…

The study analyzed the possible effects of retro walking exercise techniques on the skill of balance in hearing impaired individuals. The study is a quasi-experimental study and the single group pretest-post-test design among the experiment models was used. The study groups was applied a retro walking exercise for eight weeks. 25 hearing impaired…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the agreement of five commercially available accelerometers in estimating energy expenditure while performing an acute bout of high-intensity functional training (HIFT). Methods: Participants (n = 47; average age: 28.5 ± 11.6 years) consisted of recreationally active, healthy adults. Each…

High-Intensity Functional Training (HIFT) has become a popular mode of exercise. HIFT is a training style that involves performance of coordinated, whole-body exercises at high relative intensities. Research has shown that there are numerous health benefits from performing HIFT. This article addresses how to incorporate HIFT into a high school…

The application of strength and conditioning principles and concepts are built into the national standards and grade-level outcomes; however, the prevailing FITT formula does not meet the needs of students today. Instead of one standard workout program for all, students need to learn about a nonlinear, or undulating, program that provides options…

The training of physical education and training students is an important part of the education of physical education students in my country. The talents trained are an important supporting force to improve the quality of physical education and sports training and to promote the scientific and effective development of national fitness. The quality…
