Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 12), performing the martial arts striking sports (MASS-12) protocol (three sessions/week, 20 min/session), or a control group (n = 12), following routine warm-ups. Outcome measures included dynamic balance (Biodex Balance System), knee proprioception at 30° and 70° (joint position reproduction), and visual RT. A 2 × 2 mixed repeated-measures analysis of variance revealed significant Group × Time interactions for dynamic balance (p = .001, η2 = .19, d = 1.06) and RT (p = .03, η2 = .22, d = 0.94). The intervention group showed significant within-group improvements in dynamic balance (p = .001), RT (p = .02), and proprioception at 30° (p = .01, d = 1.20) and 70° (p = .04, d = 1.30), with no significant changes in the control group. Between-group differences at posttest were significant for dynamic balance (p = .04) and RT (p = .03). These findings suggest that the MASS-12 neuromuscular warm-up enhances key functional indicators, potentially reducing injury risk in Para-taekwondo athletes.

This qualitative study explored the perceived barriers and facilitators for Qualified Exercise Professionals in Italy when delivering programs for adults with disabilities. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 22 experienced Qualified Exercise Professionals and analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Findings revealed three interconnected challenges: systemic constraints, including prohibitive costs and inaccessible facilities; a profound gap between theoretical education and practical demands, fuelling a fear of causing harm; and the unrecognized emotional labor of client advocacy.

Z-standardized composites captured upper limb, lower limb and trunk strength, plus trunk stability. K-means clustering, with k selected via elbow and silhouette methods, was compared with official classes using accuracy and information-based metrics. The best four-cluster solution achieved accuracy above 80% and moderate agreement, matching SG-U (Shotgun Upper) and SG-L (Shotgun Lower), but dividing SG-S (Shotgun Sitting) into two distinct groups exposing within-class heterogeneity. Upper limb strength was the main discriminator, followed by trunk stability and lower limb strength.
