Incumbents and cadets then completed a 6-steel plate shooting test. Steel time (time to hit all plates) and number of shots required were recorded. Between-group differences in scenario time, steel time, and shots fired were analyzed by a univariate analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) ( p < 0.05; covariates: sex, age). Relationships between grip and index finger strength with scenario variables were derived with partial correlations controlling for sex and age ( p < 0.05; incumbents and cadets analyzed separately). A repeated measures ANCOVA ( p < 0.05; covariates: sex, age) investigated between-group differences in grip and index finger strength, and whether there were changes postscenario.

The incumbent group had a nonsignificant 71% faster steel time and required 40% fewer shots, and experienced a decrease in DGS and NDGS ( p ≤ 0.013) postscenario. Pre- and post-DGS and NDGS, pre-DIFS, and post-NDIFS significantly related to scenario time for the cadets ( r = -0.311 to -0.503).

J Strength Cond Res 39(4): e589-e597, 2025-We quantified the associations of handgrip strength and walking pace with incident arrhythmias using Cox proportional hazards models with hazards ratios (HRs). The study included 487,673 subjects, with an average age of 56.4 years, 54.8% female, and free of baseline arrhythmias from the UK Biobank prospective study. Handgrip strength was assessed by a dynamometer. Low handgrip strength was defined as less than 27 kg in men and 16 kg in women. Walking pace was self-reported as slow, average, or brisk. The arrhythmia categories involved incident atrial fibrillation (AF), incident ventricular arrhythmias, and incident bradyarrhythmia, respectively. Over a median follow-up duration of 12.4 years, 28,967 (5.9%), 4,061 (0.8%), and 11,741 (2.4%) subjects developed incident AF, incident ventricular arrhythmias, and incident bradyarrhythmia, respectively. Compared with those with low handgrip strength, the adjusted HRs (95% confidence interval [CI]) of incident AF, ventricular arrhythmias, and bradyarrhythmia in subjects with normal handgrip strength were 0.76 (95% CI: 0.73.-0.79), 0.75 (95% CI: 0.67.-0.84), and 0.80 (95% CI: 0.74.-0.85), respectively. Compared with those with a slow walking pace, subjects with a brisk walking pace had significantly lower risks of incident AF (HR, 0.56; 95% CI: 0.53.-0.58), ventricular arrhythmias (HR, 0.52; 95% CI: 0.45.-0.59), and bradyarrhythmia (HR, 0.63; 95% CI: 0.59.-0.68). In addition, the inverse associations of handgrip strength and walking pace with AF were significantly stronger among those with a lower genetic risk of AF (both p interaction <0.001).

A secondary purpose of this investigation was to determine the interlimb reliability of Stryd for VCoM and cadence. Twenty healthy individuals (5 males, 15 females; age: 24.5 ± 1.5 years; mass: 67.1 ± 12.2 kg; height: 1.66 ± 0.01 m) were fitted for motion capture and 2 Stryd devices. After warm-up, subjects ran at a self-selected speed on the treadmill for each condition (self-selected, +5%, and +10% cadence) while VCoM and cadence were collected simultaneously from Stryd and motion capture. Reliability between the Stryd devices on different limbs was excellent for both cadence (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0.999, p < 0.001) and VCoM (ICC = 0.993, p < 0.001). Cadence was not significantly different between the Stryd device and motion capture ( p = 0.153). Stryd produced significantly ( p < 0.001) smaller values for VCoM regardless of condition, with average differences ranging between 4.4 and 4.6 cm. A linear regression revealed that Stryd predicted 50.7% of variation in motion capture VCoM ( p < 0.001). Stryd can reliably measure both cadence and VCoM regardless of which limb it is placed on, as indicated by the near-perfect agreement between Stryd devices, and the Stryd device can detect and predict changes in VCoM. However, Stryd consistently underestimates VCoM, which can be corrected by using a linear regression equation.</p>","PeriodicalId":17129,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research","volume":" ","pages":"414-417"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142877392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

J Strength Cond Res 39(4): e610-e615, 2025-Many studies have investigated the 400-m sprint, and the optimal pacing strategy is subject to debate. Little information is available regarding the effects of changes in the pacing strategy on running speed and spatiotemporal variables in the official 400-m race. This case study analyzed changes in running speed and spatiotemporal variables of a Japanese elite long sprinter who set a new Japanese national record in the 400-m race by modifying his pace distribution based on the analysis of his previous races and the performances of world-class long sprinters. To revamp his pace distribution, 25 preceding races (ranging from 45.47 to 46.95 seconds) were analyzed, spanning from June 2015 to June 2023. The independent variables were the 50-m split time, average running speed, percentage of the 50-m split time relative to the 400-m record, step length, and step frequency. K.S. broke his own record by modifying the pacing distribution based on the development of his previous race and the world-class long sprinters. The modified pacing strategy increased running speed in the 200- to 300-m section. Step lengths were longer throughout the 400 m, and step frequencies were higher in the last 200 m than before the alteration in the pace distribution. Modifying the pacing strategy from leading to driving may enhance the personal records of long sprinters. This improvement is attributed to the maintenance of longer step lengths over the entire 400-m range and an increase in the step frequency in the last 200 m.</p>","PeriodicalId":17129,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research","volume":" ","pages":"e610-e615"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142869497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We explored interlimb asymmetries in muscle function among 13 national-level male volleyball players (24 ± 3 years; 87 ± 7 kg; 194 ± 7 cm; 19 ± 2 hours training/week), aiming to determine whether these asymmetries are muscle specific and consistent across various metrics.

Repeated-mixed ANOVA within and between-factors assessed each metric's differences between muscle groups and limbs. Kappa coefficients (K) were calculated to determine the levels of agreement for the direction of asymmetry among muscle groups and different metrics at the individual level.

J Strength Cond Res 39(4): 399-406, 2025-We compared the velocity feedback method (VEL) vs. the perceptual response (RPE), with no velocity feedback, to estimate changes in movement velocity during continuous sets terminated at 10, 20, and 40% of velocity decreases in the bench press exercise using either 50% or 75% of the 1 repetition maximum (1RM). After 5 sessions of familiarization and determining the 1RM, 19 males (24.5 ± 6 years) and 9 females (30.4 ± 8 years) underwent 2 identical 6-day testing sessions over 2 weeks (12 days in total) using the VEL (first 6 sessions) or the RPE method (last 6 sessions). The average velocity and the OMNI Perceived Exertion Scale for Resistance Exercise (OMNI-RES) (0-10) scale score were measured for every repetition of each set. Under VEL, the sets terminated after completing 2 consecutive repetitions below the pre-established velocity threshold. During RPE, the sets stopped when the subjects reached a previously obtained OMNI-RES score linked to the specific tested velocity thresholds. A linear mixed-effects model setting velocity thresholds, method, and their interaction as fixed effects and subjects as random components was conducted. No differences (p > 0.05) between methods were observed for the absolute (m·s-1) and percentage of velocity decreases or the total number of repetitions using both 50 and 75% of 1RM. Nonetheless, compared with VEL, fewer repetitions (p < 0.01) linked to nondesirable neuromuscular adaptations were completed under RPE. In conclusion, although no differences between methods for estimating changes in velocity were identified, the RPE could be preferable to the VEL method to reduce the number of repetitions performed under the prescribed threshold.</p>","PeriodicalId":17129,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research","volume":"39 4","pages":"399-406"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143736035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Normalizing and standardizing physical fitness by sex, age, and body size in Brazilian children and adolescents: A PROESP-BR study. J Strength Cond Res 39(4): e598-e609, 2025-The study aimed to use allometric modeling to identify how body size dimensions should be exponentiated to normalize physical fitness variables. It also aimed to provide reference values to standardize physical fitness into z-scores by sex, age, and body size dimensions. Cross-sectional data from 95,691 Brazilian children and adolescents (52,747 males; 55.1%; aged 6-18 years) were analyzed, including physical fitness tests (abdominal endurance, agility, cardiorespiratory fitness, flexibility, lower and upper limbs power, and speed) and anthropometric measures (arm span, body mass, and height). Allometric modeling was applied, and statistical significance was determined using p values less than 0.05. Results revealed that taller individuals with longer levers generally performed better in physical fitness tests (p ≤ 0.007), regardless of biologic sex and chronologic age, except for flexibility tests where shorter individuals with longer upper limbs performed better (p ≤ 0.001). The impact of greater body mass varied depending on whether the test required the individual to carry his/her own weight. Among females, performance in weight-bearing/carrying tests peaked at middle adolescence and declined thereafter, while among males, performance steadily increased with age. In conclusion, the present study provided reference equations to calculate z-scores independent from biologic sex and chronologic age and dimensionless to body size variables, and also suggested how arm span, body mass, and height could be exponentiated for use in the denominator of a physical fitness scaled ratio or index.</p>","PeriodicalId":17129,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research","volume":"39 4","pages":"e598-e609"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143736053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
