Therefore, this study aimed to determine the prevalence and risk factors associated with Achilles Tendinopathy (AT) among university soccer players. Methods: A cross-sectional survey of 210 soccer players, where 79.5% of the participants were male purposively sampled from two universities. Data on selected anthropometric indices and socio-demographic characteristics of the participants was ascertained. Royal London Test and Victorian Institute of Sports Assessment-Achilles Questionnaire were used to assess AT. The inferential statistics of Spearman rank order correlation and chi square were used for data analysis at an alpha level of 0.05. Results: The prevalence of AT was 21.9 per 100 persons. The mean AT score, age, height, weight, and Body Mass Index (BMI) of the participants were 92.29 ± 15.89, 22.46 ± 1.47 years, 1.74 ± 0.13 meters, 68.90 ± 7.46 kg, 19.73 ± 1.80 respectively. Significant correlation exists between AT score and the following variables: age (p = 0.018), weight (p < 0.01), height (p < 0.01), BMI (p < 0.01). There was no significant correlation between sex and AT score (p = 0.215). Conclusions: The prevalence of Achilles tendinopathy in university soccer players was high. Age, height, weight, BMI except sex correlated with AT. The results depicts that the higher the BMI, the likelihood of having AT.","PeriodicalId":91298,"journal":{"name":"International journal of sports and exercise medicine","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90550331","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}

Thirty college age participants (20 male, 10 female) completed both a general warm-up, followed by either an NMES warm-up or a dynamic warm-up. The participants were then asked to perform three trials each of standing long jump, 20m sprint, and 18.3m (20-yard) shuttle run, in random order. Each participant returned one week later and were tested using the warm-up procedure that they had not performed the week before (repeated measures design). Intra-class correlation coefficients for the three dependent measures for each intervention ranged from 0.87 to 0.99, indicating overall excellent reliability within each measure. There was no difference between the warm-up procedures for the SLJ, 20m sprint, or 20-yard shuttle run tests. This inter-individual variation suggests that short duration NMES could be beneficial for some athletes, while some may find dynamic warm-up more effective. Based on the outcome of this study, athletes and coaches should experiment and determine what is best for the individual. Results from the research could help to determine NMES’s use in strength and conditioning and as a means of performance enhancement.","PeriodicalId":91298,"journal":{"name":"International journal of sports and exercise medicine","volume":"94 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74492520","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}

Methods: This case study describes clinical identification of upper quarter impairments contributing to a suspected disputed neurogenic thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) in a high school quarterback. Specific clinical examination using provocation, mobility, upper quarter dynamic control, and functional outcome measures led to directed interventions. Results: Reported symptom resolution began after 3 sessions and functional control was restored by the 10th session. Improvements remained at 1-year follow up. Conclusion: While clinical causation cannot be inferred from a single subject case report, these outcomes are indicative of how shoulder girdle mobility and dynamic control impairments may contribute to brachial plexus irritability in a throwing athlete. Moreover, these specific interventions may be useful in other patients with similar impairments.","PeriodicalId":91298,"journal":{"name":"International journal of sports and exercise medicine","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77718733","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}

In particular, resistance training is linked to physiological adaptations causing increases in muscular strength, endurance, power, and hypertrophy. These muscular adaptations can be translated to improvements in sports performance. With this concept in mind, sports performance coaches can manipulate training variables in order to optimize athletic performance and help athletes achieve their goals. However, additional research is warranted investigating how certain resistance training variables impact muscular adaptations. Thus, the purpose of this literature review is to explore the impact of resistance training on sportsperformance through adaptations in muscular strength, hypertrophy, endurance, and power. In addition, this review will study the impact of manipulating resistance training factors, such as rate of force development, frequency, intensity, load, and volume on muscular adaptations.","PeriodicalId":91298,"journal":{"name":"International journal of sports and exercise medicine","volume":"64 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72634335","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}

Laura J.","doi":"10.23937/2469-5718/1510216","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.23937/2469-5718/1510216","url":null,"abstract":"Objective: Water polo is a very physical and aggressive sport and injury data for male water polo athletes is well established. However, the data is scarce for women. Given that a recent study identified that almost half (47.9%) of female collegiate athletes experienced a breast injury during participation in basketball, soccer, volleyball, and softball, it warrants the investigation of the prevalence of female breast injuries during participation in water polo. The purpose of this study was to report the prevalence and reporting of breast injury during participation on the USA Women’s Water Polo Team. Design: Descriptive research design utilizing an anonymous cross-sectional questionnaire consisting of 12 questions about various aspects of any sports related breast injury history. This was emailed to the 18 members of the USA Women’s Water Polo Team. Setting/participants: 18 members of USA Women’s Water Polo Team were emailed a questionnaire, 16 responded. Results: Response rate was 88.9%. Exactly half (8/16) of the athletes reported that they sustained a breast injury, and 62.5% (5/8) of those that had an injury indicated having at least 6 or more injuries to their breast. None of the women informed a medical professional about their breast injury. Conclusions: The prevalence of breast injuries in elite female water polo players in this study (50%) and lack of informing medical professionals about their injuries is consistent with previously published breast injury rates in a study of collegiate athletes. These findings should be used to heighten the awareness of the prevalence of breast injury in female athletes. Continued research into possible sequela of these injuries is warranted.","PeriodicalId":91298,"journal":{"name":"International journal of sports and exercise medicine","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74350523","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 impact of BWSTT on oxygen uptake (VO2) and cardiovascular (HR and BP) response in patients has been shown to be variable, possibly due to level of Body Weight Support (BWS) or exercise intensity. The purpose of this study was to compare and quantify VO2, HR, and BP response in healthy adults during BWSTT at 0% and 30% BWS for two exercise intensities (35% and 50% VO2max). Methods: Eleven subjects (6 female, 5 male; 41.9 ± 11.3 y; 177.3 ± 6.9 cm; 79.0 ± 17.5 kg; 24.9 ± 4.2 kg/m2) provided informed consent for participation. Each completed a 5-minute rest trial followed by four treadmill walking trials; 2 at 35% VO2max (0% and 30% BWS; trials 0035 and 3035) and 2 at 50% VO2max (0% and 30% BWS; trials 0050 and 3050). Subjects rested a minimum of 5 minutes between each trail. For each trial the following was measured: HR (electronic monitor), BP (auscultation), RPE (Borg ratio scale), VO2 (indirect calorimetry). Mean data from minutes 3-5 were analyzed for differences between levels of BWS and exercise intensity levels using repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni post-hoc testing. Results: Mean walking speeds and elevations were 86.7 m/min and 0.6% (35% VO2max) and 91.1 m/min and 3.7% (50% VO2max). All trials showed significant (p < 0.05) increases in HR, RPE, VO2, metabolic equivalents (MET), minute ventilation (VE), Respiratory Rate (RR) and tidal volume (TV) compared to rest. No significant differences were seen in any tested variables between 0035 and 3035. HR, VO2, METS, and VE were significantly decreased in 3050 vs. 0050. HR, RPE, VO2, METS, respiratory exchange ratio and TV were significantly reduced in 0035 and 3035 compared to 0050 but were not different compared to 3050. Conclusion: BWS of 30% did not induce significant changes in VO2, HR or BP response while walking at 35% VO2max but did show significant reductions in HR and VO2 walking at 50% VO2max. Further, 30% BWS while walking at 50% VO2 max elicited similar VO2 and HR responses to unweighted walking at 35% VO2 max. This suggests BWS may allow for higher intensity exercise in patients while yielding reduced patient responses in VO2 and HR.","PeriodicalId":91298,"journal":{"name":"International journal of sports and exercise medicine","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88708120","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 standard load for speed marching is 25 kilograms, this includes a backpack, a tactical vest and rifle. When increasing walking speed, a person will switch from walking to running at a certain speed, this is called walk-to-run transition. The walkto-run transition speed for marching in military boots, with or without a rifle, is unknown. Marching and running are the source of many overuse injuries, the accumulation of impact forces plays a causal role.
