Malina,Anne Marte Pensgaard,Alex Sanchez,Torbjørn Soligard,Jorunn Sundgot-Borgen,Willem van Mechelen,Juanita R. Weissensteiner,Lars Engebretsen +17 more
TL;DR: The IOC critically evaluated the current state of science and practice of youth athlete development and presented recommendations for developing healthy, resilient and capable youth athletes, while providing opportunities for all levels of sport participation and success.
Journal Article
The relationship between maximal oxygen uptake and repeated sprint performance indices in field hockey and soccer players.
TL;DR: Maximal oxygen uptake was not correlated with the fastest 40 m sprint time but was moderately correlated with total sprint time, and it remains possible that a high level of aerobic fitness enhances other aspects of match play in games like soccer and hockey.
Journal Article
Effects of a 12-week exercise training programme on aerobic fitness, body composition, blood lipids and C-reactive protein in adolescents with obesity.
Patricia C. H. Wong,Michael Chia,I. Y. Y. Tsou,Gervais Khin-Lin Wansaicheong,Benedict Tan,John Chee Keng Wang,John Tan,Chung Gon Kim,Gerald Boon Tiong Boh,Darren Lim +9 more
TL;DR: The value of an additional exercise training programme, beyond the typical twice weekly physical education classes, to produce physiological benefits in the management of obesity in adolescents, including prevention of weight gain is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validity of the running repeated sprint ability test among playing positions and level of competitiveness in trained soccer players.
TL;DR: Data support the construct validity of the rRSA test in trained soccer players, which is a specific physical or fitness attribute of an outfield-position player, and may be of greater importance to the forwards' position.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gender differences in anaerobic power of the arms and legs--a scaling issue.
TL;DR: These results confirmed that anaerobic power of the upper body and lower body were best normalized to BM and, when statistically appropriate methods were used to take into account differences in BM, PP, and MP generated from sprint cycling were similar for both men and women.
