Blood Pressure Changes Following Aerobic Exercise in Caucasian and Chinese Descendants
Int J Sports MedDOI: 10.1055/s-0034-1390493Acute aerobic exercise produces post-exercise hypotension (PEH). Chinese populations have lower prevalence of cardiovascular disease compared to Caucasians. PEH may be associated cardiovascular disease through its influence on hypertension. The purpose of this study was to compare PEH between Caucasian and Chinese subjects following acute aerobic exercise. 62 (30 Caucasian and 32 Chinese, 50% male) subjects underwent measurement of peripheral and central hemodynamics as well as arterial and cardiac evaluations, 30 min and 60 min after 45 min of treadmill exercise. Caucasians...

The Influence of the Breathing Action on Net Drag Force Production in Front Crawl Swimming
Int J Sports MedDOI: 10.1055/s-0034-137263620 elite swimmers completed a total of 6 randomized net drag force trials in 2 conditions (i) 3 breathing and (ii) 3 non-breathing. Net drag force was measured using an assisted motorized dynamometer device mounted upon a Kistler force-platform. The male participants demonstrated no statistical differences in stroke rates between breathing and non-breathing trials. Female participants, however, demonstrated a statistical difference stroke rate. The male participants demonstrated that the breathing action caused a greater (26%) net drag force compared to the females (16%). To furth...

Cardiovascular Responses during Free-Diving in the Sea
Int J Sports MedDOI: 10.1055/s-0034-1389969Cardiac output has never been assessed during free-diving diving in the sea. Knowledge of human diving response in this setting is therefore scarce. 3 immersions were performed by 7 divers: at depths of 10 m, 20 m and 30 m. Each test consisted of 3 apnea phases: descent, static and ascent. An impedance cardiograph provided data on stroke volume, heart rate and cardiac output. Mean blood pressure, arterial O2 saturation and blood lactate values were also collected. Starting from a resting value of 4.5±1.6 L∙min−1, cardiac output at 10 m showed an increase up to 7.1±...

The Science of Badminton: Game Characteristics, Anthropometry, Physiology, Visual Fitness and Biomechanics
Abstract
Badminton is a racket sport for two or four people, with a temporal structure characterized by actions of short duration and high intensity. This sport has five events: men’s and women’s singles, men’s and women’s doubles, and mixed doubles, each requiring specific preparation in terms of technique, control and physical fitness. Badminton is one of the most popular sports in the world, with 200 million adherents. The decision to include badminton in the 1992 Olympics Game increased participation in the game. This review focuses on the game characteristics, anthropometry, physiology, visual attribu...

Cross-sectional Association between Walking Pace and Sleep-disordered Breathing
In conclusion, a slower walking speed was associated with a greater prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing, independently from other common screening factors. Therefore, a simple walking speed question may help consolidate screening for this disorder.[...]© Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New YorkArticle in Thieme eJournals:Table of contents | Abstract | Full text

Oxygen Delivery and Muscle Deoxygenation during Continuous, Long- and Short-Interval Exercise
In conclusion, all 3 protocols resulted in a great activation of central and peripheral determinants of VO2. When performed with equal overall effort, the intense continuous and interval modalities reveal similarities in muscle O2-utilization response, but differences in central hemodynamic and VO2 responses. Intense continuous and long-interval protocols exert a more commanding role on the cardiovascular system and VO2 response compared to short-interval exercise with inactive rest phases.[...]© Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New YorkArticle in Thieme eJournals:Table of contents | Abstract | Full text

Influence of Ergometer Design on Physiological Responses during Rowing
Int J Sports MedDOI: 10.1055/s-0035-1548810The aim of this study was to compare the physiological responses and rowing efficiency on 2 different rowing ergometers: stationary vs. dynamic ergometers manufactured by Concept2. 11 oarswomen and oarsmen rowed 4 min at 60% and 70% of peak power output on both ergometers (randomized order). Power output, stroke rate, heart rate, oxygen uptake, carbon dioxide production, lactate accumulation and rating of perceived exertion were recorded at each stage on the 2 ergometers. Gross and net efficiencies were computed. Exercise intensity was associated with increases in all parameters...

Medical Care of the Aquatics Athlete
Abstract: Competitive swimmers are affected by several musculoskeletal and medical complaints that are unique to the sport. Swimmer’s shoulder, the most common overuse injury, is usually caused by some combination of impingement, rotator cuff tendinopathy, scapular dyskinesis, and instability. The condition may be treated with training modifications, stroke error correction, and strengthening exercises targeting the rotator cuff, scapular stabilizers, and core. Implementation of prevention programs to reduce the prevalence of shoulder pathology is crucial. Knee pain usually results from the breaststroke kick in swimmers,...

The Influence of Glove Type on Simulated Wheelchair Racing Propulsion: A Pilot Study
Int J Sports MedDOI: 10.1055/s-0035-1555926Our purpose was to examine the influence of glove type on kinetic and spatiotemporal parameters at the handrim in elite wheelchair racers. Elite wheelchair racers (n=9) propelled on a dynamometer in their own racing chairs with a force and moment sensing wheel attached. Racers propelled at 3 steady state speeds (5.36, 6.26 & 7.60 m/s) and performed one maximal effort sprint with 2 different glove types (soft & solid). Peak resultant force, peak torque, impulse, contact angle, braking torque, push time, velocity, and stroke frequency were recorded for steady state and spr...

Neuromuscular and Blood Lactate Response After a Motocross Training Session in Amateur Riders
Conclusions: Amateur motocross riders had significant anaerobic metabolism demands and had reduced handgrip strength following a training session. These data suggest an importance of physical training aimed at improving anaerobic and neuromuscular performance of the upper limbs in amateur motocross riders.,Results: Significant decreases in handgrip strength were observed for both hands (left: P = 0.010 and right: P = 0.004). However, no significant difference (P = 0.241) in horizontal jump ability was observed. Significant blood lactate values were observed immediately (P = 0.001), 3 (P = 0.001), 5 (P = 0.001), and 8 (P = ...

The validity of session ratings of perceived exertion for monitoring training intensity during indoor rowing: a case report from an elite athlete in preparation for the world championships
Session ratings of perceived exertion (sRPE) are a popular tool for monitoring exercise intensity across a range of sports. Despite this, little is known regarding the application of sRPE to rowing ergometry. We therefore aimed to explore the validity of sRPE for monitoring training intensity during indoor rowing training. A thirty-six-year-old, female, indoor rower was monitored over a sixteen-week training period; prior to the British and World Indoor Rowing Championships (2nd place, 30–39 year heavyweight). Rowing training could be classified as: Maximum Effort Free Stroke Rate (MaxFree; n=37), Maximum Effort...

Possible strength deficit in shoulder rotation for hypermobile swimmers
Conclusions
Young elite swimmers with GJH displayed decreased medial rotation endurance and strength, which may be potential intrinsic risk factor for development of non-traumatic shoulder injury. These swimmers may benefit from medial rotation endurance and strengthening programs; however, further research is warranted to understand the consequences of such deficits and the corresponding preventive concepts.
