Drafting during swimming improves efficiency during subsequent cycling

Article Abstract:

Research demonstrates that the metabolic load during swimming greatly influence the subsequent cycling performance during a sprint triathlon. Data indicate that decreasing swimming relative intensity leads to higher efficiency during subsequent cycling. Together, results point out to the relative importance of swimming condition and drafting during the swimming portion of a sprint triathlon.

Habitual physical activity in children and adolescents during school and free days

Article Abstract:

Results reveal that 22% of the primary school children and 41% of the senior high school adolescents cannot achieve he recommended amount of physical activity. Data indicate influence of gender, type of the day on habitual physical activity behavior of children and adolescens. Furthermore, the decrease in total physical activity from primary to high school is not present during free days,

Influence of the menstrual cycle phase and menstrual symptoms on maximal anaerobic performance

Article Abstract:

Results do not demonstrate any significant differences in the maximal cycling and jumping power, maximal height of jump, standardized warm-up, and rectal temperature during early, middle, and midluteal phase of menstruation in either eumenorrheic women or those using oral contaceptives.
