This study compared the weekly training load (TL) variation across different measures. Fifty-two runners reported their heart rate and distance ran for each training session during four weeks of training. Heart rate measures were used to calculate the weekly TRaining IMPulse (W-TRIMP), whereas the distance ran was used to calculate the weekly…

A number of familiarization trials are needed for reliable measurement, particularly for inexperienced subjects. Researchers have studied and developed familiarization protocols that vary by exercise and study population. The pace of familiarization and fatigue may be an individual-level characteristic, so a population-level protocol may not fit…

Dysfunctional movement, a suggested contributing factor for musculoskeletal pain and injury, appears to increase as adolescents experience puberty. This study investigated dysfunctional movement among a group of ninth-grade physical education students to determine if a standardized functional movement warm-up (FMWU) would improve movement quality…

The expanding opportunities to implement sport science frameworks in elite-level basketball environments coincide with the sport's increasing global prominence. Concomitant to these opportunities is the continual growth of the sport technology market (e.g., wearables, force plates) and computational power (e.g., data management tools, coding…

The aim of this study is to compare high-intensity interval running exercises for physical education students in the field and the pool in terms of their effects on anaerobic power and blood lactate. 20 amateur male athletes that is student at physical education department participated in this study on a voluntary basis (Age: 22 ± 4 years, Height:…

Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) has recently been experimented with the hypothesis that it can acutely improve exercise performance. IPC's ergogenic effects have been a novel approach to improve anaerobic power and sprint performances. Since the beneficial effects of the underlying mechanisms on anaerobic power have not been clearly understood, the…

This study investigated the effect of a skating unit on cardiovascular fitness, eyes-closed static balance, explosive power, and agility in fifth graders. During a 6-week skating unit (12 lessons), 71 students (M[subscript age] = 10.34 years, range: 10-12 years) participated during regularly scheduled physical education classes. Three classes were…

Purpose: The aim of this study is the effect of core stabilization training (CST) at male swimmers in 10-13 ages on 50 m backstroke swimming time (ST), Biering Sorenson (BS) test, Flexor (FE) and Lateral Endurance test (LE) and Stork (SD) balance test parameters. Methods: 14 volunteer male swimmers who swim at the Yesilvadi Galatasaray Sports…

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.…

Because of the changes in society, the educational scope must implement teaching--learning methodologies that help students to develop the competences that will be necessary in their academic--professional journey. This study presents a teaching innovation experience that is based on the flipped classroom methodology, which was carried out with…

Much research has been executed to investigate how altering focus of attention impacts performance and feelings of fatigue. Using a within-participant design, the present study examined how an associative and dissociative attentional in addition to an internal and external attentional dimension influenced the running economy of nonprofessional…

Derived from the Expectancy-Value Theory (EVT) model, cost has drawn scholarly interest for being predicative of avoidance motivation. The study is an effort to develop and validate an instrument to measure students' perceived costs in physical education. Through literature review and student interviews, a draft of 39 items under seven domains was…

The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of lower and upper extremity strength on shot styles in tennis. 54 males and 19 females training regularly as experimental group and 24 male and 9 female volunteers as control group participated in the study. 24 training sessions were applied to the experimental group participants. Every week…

The Physiology Understanding (PhUn) Week is a national outreach event sponsored by the American Physiological Society. Our PhUn team conducted an event for 551 students (12.5 ± 0.9 yr old) in a middle school in Indiana. The aims of this program were to: (1) teach about the negative consequences of inactivity on cardiovascular (CV) health and…

This study measured the physical activity contributions of Dancing Classrooms on middle school students. Data were collected on 77 students from two large urban middle schools who wore Actigraph wGT3X+ accelerometers for 2 weeks during the program. Physical activity profiles were created to show participant heart rates and step counts. Focus…
