Soccer training: High-intensity interval training is mood disturbing while small sided games ensure mood balance
( Edizioni Minerva Medica , 2018 , Article)© 2017 EDIZIONI MINERVA MEDICA. BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to compare the effects of high-intensity intermittent training (HIIT) versus small-sided games (SSG) in soccer on both the physiological responses and ... -
Is It Time We Changed How We Measure Length of Stay for Hip and Knee Arthroplasty?
( Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins , 2017 , Article)Patient length of stay (LOS) for lower limb arthroplasty is a frequently quoted outcome measure. However, the use of mean values in days is prone to being skewed by outliers. Between January 2013 and December 2015, patient ... -
Mixed-methods pre-match cooling improves simulated soccer performance in the heat.
( Taylor & Francis , 2019 , Article)This investigation examined the effects of three pre-match and half-time cooling manoeuvres on physical performance and associated physiological and perceptual responses in eight University soccer players during a non-motorised ... -
Limiting the Rise in Core Temperature During a Rugby Sevens Warm-up With an Ice Vest.
( Human Kinetics , 2019 , Article)Determine how a cooling vest worn during a warm-up could influence selected performance [counter movement jump (CMJ)], physical (GPS metrics) and psycho-physiological (body temperature and perceptual) variables. In a ... -
Comparison of two warm-up models for obese and normal-weight adults performing supramaximal cycling exercise.
( Termedia Publishing , 2018 , Article)This study examines the impact of two forms of active warm-up on supramaximal cycling performance among sedentary adults. Thirty-seven adults [23.05 (6.4) years; BMI=26.05 (1.3) kg/m, FM=30.1 (4.2)%, VO=23.8 (5.8) ml/min/kg] ... -
Chronic probiotic supplementation with or without glutamine does not influence the eHsp72 response to a multi-day ultra-endurance exercise event.
( NRC Research Press , 2017 , Article)Probiotic and glutamine supplementation increases tissue Hsp72, but their influence on extracellular Hsp72 (eHsp72) has not been investigated. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of chronic probiotic ... -
