Work during 5 min cycle time-trial increased 6.5% (P < 0.001) in 9 participants who decreased training load (completed heavy training then light training) and maximal rate of heart rate increase increased 28% (P = 0.002) but the changes in maximal work were not related to changes in rate of heart rate increase (r = 0.32, P = 0.40). Heart rate recovery tended to track changes in 5 min cycle time-trial work following increases and decreases in training load (r = 0.65–0.75, P = 0.03–0.08). Conclusions: Maximal rate of heart rate increases during cycling at 100 W tracks reductions in exercise performance when training load is increased, but not performance improvements when training loads are reduced. Maximal rate of heart rate increase may be a useful adjunct to heart rate recovery for tracking changes in exercise performance.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:05:43 AEDT ]]> Resistance training to improve power and sports performance in adolescent athletes: a systematic review and meta-analysis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18261 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:04:54 AEDT ]]> Coinciding exercise with peak serum caffeine does not improve cycling performance https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17557 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:03:52 AEDT ]]> Influence of carbohydrate on serum caffeine concentrations following caffeine ingestion https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19646 p < 0.001) trials compared to 120 and 180 min following ingestion for the 6 and 9 mg kg⁻¹ fed trials, respectively (p < 0.001). Peak concentration was greater in the 9 mg kg⁻¹ fasted trial than the corresponding fed condition (70 ± 9 μmol L⁻¹ and 56 ± 6 μmol L⁻¹, respectively) and both were greater than the 6 mg kg⁻¹ conditions (44 ± 8 μmol L⁻¹ and 38 ± 8 μmol L⁻¹ for 6 mg kg⁻¹ fasted and fed, respectively). Area under the caffeine curve was significantly greater (p < 0.001) in the 9 mg kg⁻¹ fasted trial (3262 μmol L⁻¹ h⁻¹), whilst areas were lowest in the 6 mg kg⁻¹ fed trial (1644 μmol L⁻¹ h⁻¹). Conclusions: A high carbohydrate meal consumed prior to caffeine ingestion significantly reduced serum caffeine concentrations and delayed time to peak concentration. Differences in research findings between caffeine supplementation studies may, at least in part, be related to variations in postprandial timing of caffeine intake. The influence of postprandial timing should be considered when athletes consume caffeine with the aim of enhancing performance.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:01:09 AEDT ]]> A hitchhiker's guide to assessing sedentary behaviour among young people: deciding what method to use https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18966 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:58:53 AEDT ]]> Factors influencing serum caffeine concentrations following caffeine ingestion https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19160 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:52:20 AEDT ]]> The dose-response relationship between pseudoephedrine ingestion and exercise performance https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:19161 2.3mgkg⁻¹ > placebo; p<0.001).

A number of factors clearly influence the uptake and appearance of pseudoephedrine in the blood and these are not yet fully understood. Combined with subsequent differences in plasma pseudoephedrine between individuals, this may partially explain the present findings and also the inconsistencies in performance following pseudoephedrine administration in previous studies.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:52:20 AEDT ]]> EMG activity is not elevated during exercise-related transient abdominal pain https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:5147 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:49:40 AEDT ]]> Monitoring athletic training status using the maximal rate of heart rate increase https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28286 cyc) and running at 8 km/h (rHRIrun) in 13 male triathletes following two weeks of light-training (LT), two weeks of heavy-training (HT) and a two-day recovery period (RP). A five min cycling time-trial assessed performance and peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak). Results: Performance likely decreased following HT (Effect size ± 90% confidence interval = -0.18 ± 0.09), then very likely increased following RP (0.32 ± 0.14). rHRIcyc very likely decreased (-0.48 ± 0.24), and rHRIrun possibly decreased (-0.33 ± 0.48), following HT. Changes in both measures were unclear following RP. Steady-state HR was almost certainly lower (-0.81 ± 0.31) during rHRIcyc than rHRIrun. A large correlation was found between reductions in performance and rHRIrun (r ± 90%; CI = 0.65 ± 0.34) from LT to HT, but was unclear for rHRIcyc. Trivial within-subject correlations were found between rHRI and performance, but the strength of relationship between rHRIrun and performance was largely associated with VO2peak following LT (r = -0.58 ± 0.38). Conclusions: Performance reductions were most sensitively tracked by rHRIrun following HT. This may be due to rHRIrun being assessed at a higher intensity than rHRIcyc, inferred from a higher steady-state HR and supported by a stronger within-subject relationship between rHRIrun and performance in individuals with a lower VO2peak, in whom the same exercise intensity would represent a greater physiological stress. rHRI assessed at relatively high exercise intensities may better track performance changes.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:41:23 AEDT ]]> Do Australian football players have sensitive groins?

There were inverse within-subject relationships between indices of HRR and performance (r = −0.6, p ≤ 0.004). Peak HR decreased 3.2 ± 5.1 bpm following heavy training (p = 0.06) and significantly increased 4.9 ± 4.3 bpm following recovery (p = 0.004). There was a moderate within-subject relationship between peak HR and exercise performance (r = 0.7, p ≤ 0.001). Controlling for peak HR reduced the relationships between HRR and performance (r = −0.4–0.5, p < 0.05). Conclusions: This study demonstrated that HRR tracks short-term changes in exercise performance within-individuals, such that increases in HRR are associated with poorer exercise performance following heavy training. Peak HR can be compromised under conditions of fatigue, and needs to be taken into account in HRR analyses.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:39:14 AEDT ]]> Musculoskeletal screening as a predictor of seasonal injury in elite olympic class sailors https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29565 N = 22). Pre-season musculoskeletal screening (incorporating mobility, stability and neural tests) and seasonal injury data were analysed for predictive relationships, and associations between potential predictor variables and injury status. Results: Injuries requiring medical attention occurred at a rate of 3.6 injuries/athlete, while injuries resulting in disability occurred at a rate of 0.6 injuries/athlete, with the lumbar spine the main site of injury (23% and 33%, respectively). Wrist and hand injury resulted in the highest number of days of disability (110 days), followed by injury to the lumbar spine (87 days). Across the season 75% of injuries to the lumbar spine occurred in the latter half of the season. The only screening measure predictive of injured/uninjured status was better left-sided single-leg decline-squat performance (OR = 0.29; 95% CI = 0.09-0.88; p = 0.03), while increasing age was significantly (p = 0.03) associated with thoracic (OR = 1.48; 95% CI = 1.03-2.12) and lumbar spine (OR = 1.46; 95% CI = 1.04-2.04) injury. Conclusions: Though clinically useful, current screening protocols do not adequately assess the risk of seasonal injury in elite Olympic class sailors, and should be revised. Due to the increased risk of spinal injury and potential lost/modified participation in older Olympic class sailors, injury prevention activities should be individualised and age appropriate.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:37:54 AEDT ]]> Association between sports participation, motor competence and weight status: a longitudinal study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29980 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:37:38 AEDT ]]> Blood flow restricted exercise for athletes: a review of available evidence https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26156 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:35:26 AEDT ]]> The reliability and validity of an authentic motor skill assessment tool for early adolescent girls in an Australian school setting https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30897 rs = 0.68, p < 0.05). Conclusions: Both instruments were found to be reliable and valid.

No significant increases in squat or bench press strength were observed after 12 weeks in the CON group. Increases in lower body strength were large in the LP group (ES: 1.64) and very large in the DUP group (ES: 2.33). Upper body strength changes were small in both groups (LP, ES: 0.57; DUP, ES: 0.31). Conclusions: Twelve weeks of LP or DUP resistance training are both effective at increasing maximal lower and upper body strength in adolescent rugby athletes. Additionally, twice weekly frequency of resistance training in adolescent rugby athletes with greater than 6-months resistance training experience is sufficient to elicit substantial increases in maximal strength.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:12:10 AEDT ]]> The physiological and activity demands experienced by Australian female basketball players during competition https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23762 2max : 43.3 ± 5.7 ml kg-1 min-1) volunteered to participate. Heart rate (HR) and blood lactate concentration ([BLa]) were collected across eight competitive matches. Overall and positional player activity demands were calculated across three matches using time-motion analysis methodology. Activity frequencies, total durations and total distances were determined for various activity categories. Mean (±SD) HR responses of 162±3b min-1 (82.4±1.3% HRmax) and 136±6b min-1 (68.6±3.1% HRmax) were evident across live and total time during matches. A mean [BLa] of 3.7 ± 1.4 mmol L-1 was observed across competition. Player activity demands were unchanged across match periods, with 1752±186 movements performed and 5214±315m travelled across total live match time. Furthermore, 39±3%, 52±2%, 5 ± 1% and 4±1% of total live time was spent performing low-intensity, moderate-intensity, high-intensity and dribbling activity. Positional comparisons revealed backcourt players performed more ball dribbling (p<0.001) and less standing/walking (p<0.01) and running (p<0.05) than frontcourt players. Together, these findings highlight the high intermittent demands and important contributions of both anaerobic and aerobic metabolic pathways during state-level female basketball competition.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:11:08 AEDT ]]> Does playing a sports active video game improve young children's ball skill competence? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23935 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:10:11 AEDT ]]> The contribution of organised sports to physical activity in Australia: results and directions from the Active Healthy Kids Australia 2014 Report Card on physical activity for children and young people https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23907 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:10:02 AEDT ]]> A systematic review of outdoor gym use: current evidence and future directions https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46627 Mon 28 Nov 2022 13:38:41 AEDT ]]> Physical education in secondary schools located in low-income communities: physical activity levels, lesson context and teacher interaction https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23851 Mon 23 Sep 2019 11:27:40 AEST ]]> Rater agreement of a test battery designed to assess adolescents' resistance training skill competency https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:21859 Mon 23 Sep 2019 10:35:56 AEST ]]> Comparability and feasibility of wrist- and hip-worn accelerometers in free-living adolescents https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32763 Mon 23 Jul 2018 12:49:18 AEST ]]> Male basketball players who report hip and groin pain perceive its negative impact both on- and off-court: A cross-sectional study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49437 Mon 15 May 2023 13:51:09 AEST ]]> The application of mental fatigue research to elite team sport performance: new perspectives https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35522 Mon 08 Nov 2021 10:29:21 AEDT ]]> The propensity of non-concussive and concussive head contacts during elite-level women's rugby league matches: A prospective analysis of over 14,000 tackle events https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53006 Mon 06 Nov 2023 08:50:58 AEDT ]]> Ankle proprioception, range of motion and drop landing ability differentiates competitive and non-competitive surfers https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42795 Mon 05 Sep 2022 09:01:30 AEST ]]> Objective clinical tests of dual-task dynamic postural control in youth athletes with concussion https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42173 Fri 19 Aug 2022 09:29:17 AEST ]]> The prevalence and performance of resistance exercise training activities in an Australian population in relation to health authority guidelines https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41744  15 years), and individuals engaging in sufficient levels of aerobic exercise training (AET) engaged in sufficient levels of RET (p < 0.05).
