Book Description
ABSTRACT: The purpose of the study was to determine if there was a relationship between lower-body power and swimming start performance analyzed through a correlation between the horizontal and vertical direction jump ability with the swimming start performance. Data were collected from 30 healthy adolescent swimming athletes (14.16 ± 1.47 years, 163.24 ± 7.54 cm, 50.09 ± 8.61 kg). These subjects were measured on anthropometric tests, dry-land lower-body power tests and swimming start performance tests. In the on-block phase, the results showed that lower-body power correlated with time on-block and take-off velocity. Specifically, for the vertical jump direction, CMJ and SJ were significantly correlated with time on-block (r = -.513, r2 = .263, p = .031; r = -.537, p = .025, respectively), whereas, for the horizontal jump direction, the SLJ was significantly correlated with time on-block and take-off velocity (r = -.592, r2 = .350, p = .042; r = .631, r2 = .398, p = .015, respectively). However, the lower-body power was not significantly to the reaction time or drive angle (p > .05). In the flight phase, for the horizontal jump direction, the SLJ was significantly correlated with flight distance and flight time (r = .655, r2 = .429, p = .028; r = .563, r2 = .317, p = .035, respectively), whereas no significant correlation was observed between SLJ and angle of entry. For the vertical jump direction, the CMJ and SJ were unrelated to flight distance, flight time or the angle of entry (p > .05). In the underwater-swimming phase, a significant correlation was observed between the CMJ, SJ and SLJ with time to 5 meters (r = -.597, r2 = .356, p = .018; r = .633, r2 = .400, p = .028; r = -.723, r2 = .523, p = .023, respectively). Besides, the lower-body power (CMJ, SJ and SLJ) was unrelated to time to 10 meters (p > .05).

Concurrent Aerobic and Strength Training
Author: Moritz SchumannPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319755471
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
This book provides an extensive guide for exercise and health professionals, students, scientists, sport coaches, athletes of various sports and those with a general interest in concurrent aerobic and strength training. Following a brief historical overview of the past decades of research on concurrent training, in section 1 the epigenetic as well as physiological and neuromuscular differences of aerobic and strength training are discussed. Thereafter, section 2 aims at providing an up-to-date analysis of existing explanations for the interference phenomenon, while in section 3 the training-methodological difficulties of combined aerobic and strength training are elucidated. In section 4 and 5, the theoretical considerations reviewed in previous sections will then be practically applied to specific populations, ranging from children and elderly to athletes of various sports. Concurrent Aerobic and Strength Training: Scientific Basics and Practical Applications is a novel book on one of the “hot topics” of exercise training. The Editors' highest priority is to make this book an easily understandable and at the same time scientifically supported guide for the daily practice.

Converging Clinical and Engineering Research on Neurorehabilitation III
Author: Lorenzo MasiaPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3030018458
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1180
Book Description
The book reports on advanced topics in the areas of neurorehabilitation research and practice. It focuses on new methods for interfacing the human nervous system with electronic and mechatronic systems to restore or compensate impaired neural functions. Importantly, the book merges different perspectives, such as the clinical, neurophysiological, and bioengineering ones, to promote, feed and encourage collaborations between clinicians, neuroscientists and engineers. Based on the 2018 International Conference on Neurorehabilitation (ICNR 2018) held on October 16-20, 2018, in Pisa, Italy,, this book covers various aspects of neurorehabilitation research and practice, including new insights into biomechanics, brain physiology, neuroplasticity, and brain damages and diseases, as well as innovative methods and technologies for studying and/or recovering brain function, from data mining to interface technologies and neuroprosthetics. In this way, it offers a concise, yet comprehensive reference guide to neurosurgeons, rehabilitation physicians, neurologists, and bioengineers. Moreover, by highlighting current challenges in understanding brain diseases as well as in the available technologies and their implementation, the book is also expected to foster new collaborations between the different groups, thus stimulating new ideas and research directions.
