The aim of this research is to identify and compare body composition (BC) of female players including volleyball (VB) (X with Age=21.48±2.64), handball (HB) (X with Age =18.42±2.62), and soccer (SOC) (X with Age =18.37±2.41). Total and regional body composition of each player were evaluated with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry method (DXA). According to the results of the MANOVA, there was a statistically significant difference between female players from different team sports on the combined dependent variables (F=2.14; p=.007; Pillai’s Trace=1.45; η2=.73). When the results for the dependent variables were considered separately, SOC players had significantly lower lean arm mass (F=6.27; p=.004; η2=.23), lean leg mass (F=7.92; p=.001; η2=.27), lean android mass (F=8.85; p=.001; η2=.29), lean gyonoid mass (F=9.01; p=.001; η2=.30), and Total BMC (F=7.25; p=.002; η2=.25) than those of VB and HB players. In addition, while SOC players had significantly lower lean body mass (F=4.97; p=.011; η2=.19) than VB players; HB players had significantly higher leg fat mass (F=4.77; p=.013; η2=.18) and gyonoid fat mass (F=4.37; p=.019; η2=.17) than SOC players. In conclusion, body compositions of female team players of SOC, VB, and HB varied. Coaches and sports scientists are advised to plan training considering the differences between sports branches.","PeriodicalId":43206,"journal":{"name":"Kinesiologia Slovenica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48305677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent studies focus on the combined effects of both factors in detail. But there is still a scientific gap in the literature on the effects caused and its magnitude in response to this type of training. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the acute effects of Repeated Wingate Style HIIT applied in hypoxic and normoxic conditions on oxidant and antioxidant indicators of recreationally active men. Sixteen participants were randomly assigned to normoxic or hypoxic groups and then they were completed a wingate style 30s*4rps*4 min (sprint time * repeats * recover between sprints) HIIT on normoxic and hypoxic conditions (2500m, FiO2: 0.130) in the normobaric environment. The normality assumption calculated using a Shapiro-Wilk test to ensure the normal distribution of the quantitative for all data (p < 0.05). To analyze differences in baseline data between groups an Independent Sample t-test was performed. The Two-way analysis of variance was used in repeated measurements to reveal the effects of training under hypoxia and normoxia conditions (time, time × group interactions) oxidant and antioxidants. The activities of blood oxidant and antioxidant did not change significantly after training in the hypoxic and normoxic group. As a result, repeated Wingate style HIIT applied in hypoxic and normoxic conditions, did not change both MDA (p=0.79), which is an indicator of oxidant stress, and SOD (p=0.46), CAT (p=0.26), and GSHPX (p=0.17), which are general indicators of antioxidant defense.","PeriodicalId":43206,"journal":{"name":"Kinesiologia Slovenica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48325327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first aim is to investigate the demands of attention of a motor task, and the other aim is to examine the effects of simultaneous cognitive or motor tasks on motor performance. The purpose of the current research is to determine the changes in motor performance times of national (experts) and non-national players (novices) during motor tasks including cognitive cues. Fifteen male national taekwondo players, who are active in taekwondo (age=17.8±1.65 years; training experience=6-13 years; training frequency=5-6 dayweek, 2-3 hourday) and 15 male non-national taekwondo players (age=16.8±1.68 year; training years=3-9 years; training frequency=1.86 ± 0.22 hourday and 4.33 ± 0.61 day / week) were voluntarily included in the study. FitLight Trainer™ system was used to determine the dual-task performance of participants. The performance time of expert players was statistically and significantly lower compared to novice players (Random Test: t=3.884, p <0.05; Cue Test: t=3.155, p <0.05; Mixed Cue Test: t=3.013, p<0.05). This study reveals; (1) expert players automatically make postural control adjustments during the motor task, and they put less cognitive effort than they are minimally considered, (2) they show a positive development in regular physical activities and training, and other systems, especially in the proprioceptive system, involved in balance control. We conclude that performances of novices suffer considerably in motor-cognitive dual-task situations. Therefore, training with dual-tasks might be useful working memory skills and attentional control of novice players. We conclude that dual-tasks acutely impacts motor and cognitive performance. Therefore, training with dual-tasks might be useful working memory skills and attentional control of novice players. We conclude that dual-tasks acutely impacts motor and cognitive performance. In future studies, dual-task paradigms between different combat sports and comparisons of postural control strategies should be measured.","PeriodicalId":43206,"journal":{"name":"Kinesiologia Slovenica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44063146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
