INTERVAL TRAINING ??? Conditioning for Sports and General Fitness

Esta tesis analiza la practica del skate en Gran La Plata (Ensenada, Berisso y La Plata), Argentina, a la vez que indaga en sus relaciones con el campo de la Educacion Fisica. La investigacion ha profundizado en modos, caracteristicas, sentidos y significados que tiene el skate para quienes lo practican, asi como para una parte del resto de la sociedad. Estas practicas son realizadas por sujetos en su mayoria jovenes, aunque tambien por ninos y adultos. Para ello hemos utilizado un abanico de conceptos y estrategias metodologicas que pusieron en dialogo a la antropologia, la sociologia, las ciencias de la educacion y la Educacion Fisica. De modo mas especifico, los postulados de la Praxiologia Motriz fueron empleados para analizar la logica interna y la logica externa. La relacion de los sujetos con los espacios (plazas, skateparks, y en particular con el espacio publico) se destaco como un importante eje analitico en la tesis. Asimismo, fueron estudiadas las relaciones con los materiales, con el tiempo y con los otros participantes. La metodologia utilizada fue cualitativa y de corte interpretativo. Los instrumentos de construccion de datos fueron entrevistas, observacion participante y fuentes secundarias (tales como documentos, paginas de internet, redes sociales y videos). Desde el surgimiento del skate como practica recreativa y de tiempo libre, han existido formatos de competicion que lo vincularon con el mundo del deporte; actualmente se observa que la organizacion de torneos ha fortalecido el avance del skate como practica deportiva (vertiente que se ve potenciada por su inclusion en los proximos Juegos Olimpicos de Tokyo 2020). En este contexto se han generado intensos debates que retomamos y analizamos en los capitulos de la tesis. Comprender al skate como deporte permitio ademas ampliar la discusion en torno al propio concepto deporte y a sus alcances. Otro de los ejes analiticos lo constituyo el relevamiento de como se lleva adelante la ensenanza en el skate. Desde esos resultados, se introducen algunas sugerencias pedagogicas intentando contribuir a la ensenanza de esta practica, a la vez que podria colaborar a reflexionar sobre la ensenanza de otras practicas corporales en el campo de la Educacion Fisica. El trabajo de investigacion llega a conclusiones que nos permiten tambien visibilizar que los practicantes de skate en la region se manifiestan a traves de acciones politicas en virtud de reclamos que consideran justos, y que se expresan y potencian por la grupalidad. El estudio pone tambien en evidencia la coexistencia de diferentes modos de practica del skate, diversidad que se construye tanto en relacion a los espacios utilizados (calle o street, y pista), asi como en relacion a la forma en que lo practican y lo entienden los propios skaters (sea de una manera mas "libre" o mas reglada y deportiva). 
En definitiva, se trata de una practica corporal que exhibe diferentes facetas, mostrando un dinamismo que impide encorsetarla en rigidas conceptualizaciones. Sin lugar a dudas, el skateboarding se ha consolidado como un objeto de estudio reconocido internacionalmente, revelandose como una practica que, al analizarla, nos permite una mejor comprension de las sociedades urbanas actuales.

Skate en el Gran La Plata: Lógica interna, lógica externa y Educación Física

Exploring playful asymmetries for gender-related decision-making through T-pattern analysis.

The education of pleasant interpersonal relationships is one of the great challenges of modern physical education. Learning to live together sustainably is also learning to transform conflicts and the negative emotions elicited by them. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the GIAM pedagogical model (of the Motor Action Research Group) through cooperation-opposition traditional sporting games with competition in the presence of motor conflicts (conflict transformation; relational well-being) and on emotional regulation (management of negative emotions; emotional well-being). Empirical research was carried out using an associative strategy (explanatory study) involving 222 secondary school students (Mage = 14.86; SD = 0.65). A seven-session pedagogical intervention was carried out based on a championship using the Marro (Prisoner’s Bar) game. The students answered two validated questionnaires of socio-emotional well-being, the Games and Emotions Scale (GES-II) and the Motor Conflict Questionnaire (MCQ), at three phases during the experience (beginning, middle, and end). The findings showed that, through the GIAM model, motor conflicts and the intensity of negative emotions were reduced. It was found that conflicts and negative emotions are part of the same phenomenon and that through an appropriate pedagogical program it is possible to turn them into experiences of socio-emotional well-being.

From Conflict to Socio-Emotional Well-Being. Application of the GIAM Model through Traditional Sporting Games

Different international organizations and initiatives highlight the contribution of the traditional sporting games (TSGs) to favor the diversity of knowledge, values, and attitudes necessary for today's society TSG such as Marro trigger multimodal learning contexts (driving conducts, interpersonal and organic relationships), with great interest in the educational and sports initiation field The purpose of two studies presented in this manuscript was to examine the 360° multimodal strategic intervention (decisional, relational, and organic) of two teams faced in a Marro game For this study, a quasi-experimental design was used composed by a single test applied to two non-equivalent teams Mixed methods were used with an observational methodology in Quadrant III: nomothetic, punctual, and multidimensional Fourteen university students participated [mean (M) = 2049, standard deviation (SD) = 218] Three internal logic variables were studied: outcome, role, and subrole; and three variables referred to the dimensions of motor conduct: relationship, risk in the decision, and physical effort A mixed ad hoc registration system was designed with acceptable margins of data quality For Study 1, cross-tabulations and classification trees were applied, while for Study 2 strategic T-patterns were identified The relevance of the scoreboard (p < 0001; Effect Size = 0386) and the realization of the role (p < 0001; ES = 0091) for the study of multimodal strategic chains in the Marro game were confirmed The detection of regularities in specific interaction (Hunters against Hares) by Theme (p < 0005) allowed for interpretation of the process of strategic conducts of both teams during the game Knowing the strategic chains of playful coexistence among equals through a multimodal range of variables and approaches has revealed an unusual dynamic picture The study provides scientific evidence for the physical education teacher on the dynamics of the game of Marro The pedagogical application of these contributions must be made according to curricular interests

Enhancing Multimodal Learning Through Traditional Sporting Games: Marro360°.

The aim of this research was to study from a multidimensional point of view (decisional, relational and energetic) the interpersonal relationships established by girls and boys in the traditional sport game of Elbow Tag. Scientific evidence has shown that Traditional Sport Games (TSG) trigger different effects on male and female genders in relation to emotional experiences, decision-making, conflicts and motor relationships. Despite the fact that these dimensions are intertwined, there are hardly any studies that interpret motor behaviors holistically, i.e., taking a multidimensional (360°) view of these dimensions. For this study, a quasi-experimental design was used and a type III design was applied, inspired by the observational methodology N/P/M. A total of 147 university students participated (M = 19.6, SD = 2.3): 47 girls (31.97%) and 100 boys (68.02%). A mixed ‘ad hoc’ registration system was designed with acceptable margins of data quality. Cross-tabulations, classification trees and T-patterns analysis were applied. The results indicated that social interactions between girls and boys in a mixed group were unequal. This difference was mainly due to decision-making (sub-role variable), which has much greater predictive power than the energetic variables (MV and steps).

Promoting Interpersonal Relationships through Elbow Tag, a Traditional Sporting Game. A Multidimensional Approach

This text is a review of the book "The science of motor action", coordinated by PhD Francisco Lagardera and PhD Pere Lavega, which includes a set of highly relevant texts for the foundation and dissemination of this science. The book has three sections. In the first one, the reader finds works of popularization and application around the traditional games, the practice of the paragliding and the physical education. All of them from the motor praxeology perspective. The second part presents experiences of the application from the same perspective to diverse areas such as training, physical education and activities in nature. Finally, the third part includes some of the most important documents produced and presented in different scientific settings in order to demonstrate the seriousness and productivity of this science of motor praxeology. This review is a recognition of a work produced at a crucial moment, triggered by the investiture of Pierre Parlebas as Doctor “Honoris Causa” by the University of Lleida and which brought together a relevant group of researchers in this area of knowledge.

La ciencia de la acción motriz: resenha de livro

The traditional ludomotor activities (LA) are recognized by UNESCO as an intangible piece of cultural heritage. The ethnomotricity analyzes LA in its sociocultural context, taking into account the proprieties of rules or motor conditions (internal logic) and the link with local culture (external logic). The aim of this research was to identify and reveal the distinctive ethnomotor features of LA in order to understand the adaptations that occurred in the social scenario of the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) in Lleida. The corpus of the research was constituted by 101 LA which were collected from the analysis of 20 semi-structured interviews. An "ad hoc" tool was designed and agreed upon by expert observers. It was comprised of a total of 27 ethnomotor variables related to LA. The experts achieved high reliability [Cohen's kappa coefficient (κ) and Spearman's correlation coefficient = 1] when the classification of LA was carried out on two different occasions. Descriptive statistics, cross-tabulations (Pearson's chi-squared) effect sizes, and two-step clusters were performed by external and internal logic variables. The presence or absence of motor interaction (X 2 = 9.029; df = 1; p < 0.003; ES = 0.298) was enlightening when comparing LA with and without a war connotation. On the other hand, the hierarchy of variables rested primarily on IL-Domain (Psycho-Coop-Oppo-Coop/Oppo) (PI = 1). Among other singularities, while two-step cluster analysis revealed a corresponding ethnomotor silhouette with cluster 1, with the warlike connotation (n = 48; 96.0%), its homologous structure was expressed (Cluster 2) in the absence of the warlike character (n = 26; 50%).
