EMG activity as a function of the performer's focus of attention.

TL;DR: Findings are in line with the constrained action hypothesis (G. Wulf, N. McNevin, & C. H. Shea, 2001), according to which an external focus promotes the use of more automatic control processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Social support and efficacy cognitions in exercise adherence: A latent growth curve analysis

TL;DR: The present study examined the relationships among social support, self-efficacy, and the ongoing exercise behavior of sedentary adults to determine whether self- efficacy served a mediational role in the influence of social support on exercise behaviors.
Journal Article

Criterion-Related Validity of the 20-M Shuttle Run Test for Estimating Cardiorespiratory Fitness: A Meta-Analysis

TL;DR: Overall the 20-m shuttle run test has a moderate-to-high mean criterion-related validity for estimating cardiorespiratory fitness, significantly higher for adults than for children, and when the performance score is combined with other variables, the criterion- related validity value increases considerably among children.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Pilates and taiji quan training on self-efficacy, sleep quality, mood, and physical performance of college students.

TL;DR: Self-efficacy was found to be improved in the Pilates and taiji quan groups and there was a trend towards improvement in sleep quality and mood, and there were no changes or group differences in the strength or balance measures.
Journal Article

Kinematic determinants of early acceleration in field sport athletes.

TL;DR: It was concluded that those subjects who are relatively fast in early acceleration achieve this through reduced ground contact times resulting in an improved stride frequency and training for improved acceleration should be directed towards using coaching instructions and drills that specifically train such movement adaptations.
