ABSTRACT Introduction: Optimizing the physical education training of female college students and maximizing physical fitness are considerable factors in contemporary physical education. It is believed that implementing sports nutrition can elevate the physical fitness of these female students. Objective: Explore the effects of sports nutrition on the physical fitness of female college students during their training period. Methods: 20 volunteers were randomly divided into experimental and control groups, with 10 female college students in each group. The control group had no changes in original living or training habits, while the experimental group was retrained according to the sports nutrition intervention strategy for one month. Results: In the experimental group, whose height was 161.02±5.64 cm, body weight decreased from 55.91±4.61 kg to 54.39±4.45 kg, and vital capacity increased from 44.98±8.61 ml/kg to 52.56±8.91 ml/kg. The body mass index of grip strength increased from 45.18±7.60 to 51.27±9.99 after the experiment. The 50M running time was improved from 8.27±0.49 s before the experiment to 7.98±0.53 s after the experiment, and the horizontal jump time was improved from 164.87±20.40 cm to 168.27±21.24 cm. The 800m running time was improved from 263.55±20.35 s before the experiment to 259.25±29.29 s after the experiment. Conclusion: The intervention strategy in sports nutrition can effectively maximize the gain in the results of female college students. It is indicated to be promoted to spread the optimization of physical training in colleges and universities. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Recent research shows that swimmers with greater stability and better balance reflect better water performance and adjustment ability. Objective: Explore the influence of balance training on the fitness of swimmers. Methods: The volunteers selected in this paper were swimmers aged 18 to 22 years old in a sports school. They were randomly divided into experimental and control groups for an experiment lasting 8 weeks. Both groups of athletes performed training during this period. Postural balance training was added to the athletes in the experimental group instead of traditional training methods, while the control athletes followed the routine professional training plan taught by the sports school. Results: The OSI score of the athletes in the experimental group decreased from 1.79±0.41 to 0.89±0.26; the API score decreased from 1.31±0.22 to 0.64±0.17; and the MLI score decreased from 1.42±0.32 to 0.54±0.30. Conclusion: Postural balance training was shown to increase the stability of swimmers, contributing favorably to sports fitness. Postural balance training can be added to the swimming training process. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Dedicated fitness training has greatly influenced many qualities required of volleyball players, but specific upper limb training is still poorly documented. Objective: Study the impacts of fitness training on upper limb strength and functional impacts during volleyball players’ ball throws. Methods: Twenty volleyball students were randomly divided into experimental and control groups for a six-week experiment. The experimental group mainly performed a training protocol involving ball throws while the control group continued with traditional training methods. The data regarding functional kinematics and fitness performance were collected and statistically compared. Results: In the experimental group, shoulder flexor strength evidenced an increase from 0.41±0.19 J/kg to 1.29±0.19 J/kg; elbow flexor strength elevated from 0.38±0.23 J/kg to 1.61±0.02 J/kg. On the specific functional performance, the peak score increased from 4.84±1.44 to 7.47±1.43; The overall score increased from 9.05±1.70 to 13.31±1.72. It was noted that the rate of increase of each index was more significant than that of the control group. Conclusion: Dedicated fitness training can improve the upper limb strength and hitting effect of volleyball players, and its combination with special strength training is recommended to improve the overall skills of athletes. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.

ABSTRACT Introduction: The good performance of college students depends directly on their physical integrity, which is subordinated to good physical fitness and cardiopulmonary resistance. It is believed that aerobic training, an adaptation to the progressive increase of physical endurance, may benefit college students. Objective: Study whether aerobic training can affect college students’ physical fitness and cardiopulmonary endurance. Methods: Through experimental comparison, the physical fitness and cardiopulmonary endurance of students in the aerobics elective class and the university athletics elective class were compared. Body indexes were measured before and after the intervention, statistically analyzed, and discussed according to the literature. Results: There were significant changes in the 50-meter run time for university students in the elective aerobics class from 9.24±1.71 to 7.81±2.02, the five-meter run from 11.56±1.03 to 7.87±0.23, the standing jump from 156.92±14.79 to 170.56±19.93, and the sitting flexion from 14.07±1.98 to 17.52±3.79. These changes accompanied the changes in cardiorespiratory endurance in the aerobics elective class. In contrast, the changes in student indicators in the track and field elective class were not as evident. Conclusion: Aerobic training positively impacted overall physical quality, including elevation of fitness indices and cardiopulmonary endurance in college students.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Cardiopulmonary function is directly related to the body's ability to perform metabolism under aerobic conditions. It is a key characteristic for the training of professional swimmers. It is believed that adding interval training to traditional workouts may contribute to the aerobic endurance of these athletes. Objective: Evaluate the interval training effects on the cardiorespiratory capacity of swimmers. Methods: Twenty volunteer swimmers were randomly divided into two groups for seven weeks. There were 4 hours of class per week, totaling 28 hours of training. In the formal training stage, the experimental group performed intermediate-intensity training, while the control group continued to perform traditional swim team training. The experimental indicators pertinent to the evaluated athletes were collected, tested, and analyzed before and after the experiment. Results: The VO2 of the athletes in the experimental group increased from 3.90±0.67L/min before the experiment to 4.06±0.73L/min after the experiment; VE increased from 156.08±35.76L before the experiment to 180.08±39.42L after the experiment; underwater endurance time increased from 46.80±8.43s before the experiment to 55.49±7.60s after the experiment. Conclusion: Intermittent training improves athletes' physical fitness and sports capacity, being an effective method to improve cardiopulmonary function.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Joint flexibility and muscle strength play a vital role in the training process of martial arts athletes. The proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) technique encourages the neural receptors, through the application of manual resistances, in the gain of functional range of motion and stability to its patients. It is believed that this technique can be adapted to the sports environment. Objective: Evaluate the impact of stretching using the PNF technique on martial arts athletes’ flexibility and muscle strength. Methods: Through a controlled experiment, 100 martial arts athletes, without significant differences, were selected as experimental subjects, and randomly divided into two groups for a 4-week experiment. The experimental group added a protocol with PNF stretching exercises in the training, while the control group performed the usual training without interventions. Indicators of flexibility, functional activities, and strength were measured before and after the intervention, compared, and statistically analyzed. Results: Joint flexibility with the shoulder rotation test evolved from 21.88±5.71 to 19.22±5.94, and the left and right division was from 16.90±5.36 to 10.57±3.75; as for muscle strength, the flexor peak moment elevated from 210.36±51.18 to 251.37± 45.72, and flexor power had a gain from 111.76±30.63 to 135.20±2,.42. The extensor peak moment also showed expressive evolutions from 179.47±43.96 to 221.52±33.60. Conclusion: The PNF stretching exercise technique effectively optimizes martial arts athletes’ joint flexibility and muscle strength. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Aerobic gymnastics is a sport that involves a sense of beauty, rhythm and dance, with high artistic expressiveness, characteristics that have favored a strong population adherence. It is believed that the specific flexibility exercise can add a greater visual impact to their artistic movements, raising their competitive performance. Objective: Verify the impacts of lower limb flexibility exercise on the performance of aerobics athletes. Methods: Six aerobics athletes were selected to perform an 8-week experiment, adopting the PNF methodology for training. The impacts on lower limb flexibility were measured before and after the experiment, these data were analyzed and studied statistically. Results: The results of the long jump in the physical quality index of the athletes increased by 0.1209 m; the added value in the two-minute, 10-m backstroke test was 1.46. The movement performance indexes showed expressive increases: flexion increased by 2.62; right angle support increased by 0.78; split leg jump increased by 1.95; standing jump with eyes closed and the foot balance quality index was 4.63. Conclusion: Lower limb flexibility exercise can positively impact the performance of aerobic gymnastics athletes. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
