The assessment of the level of motor skills in the retention phase is done to determine the impact of the process of motor learning on the process of memorization, and thus on the automation of motor skills. This study aimed at determining the differences in the levels of some gymnastics skills in retention points after different retention intervals. The sample of respondents consisted of a total of 56 first-grade pupils (6.5 years±6 months). The sample of variables consisted of 12 simpler gymnastics skills that were assessed by three independent judges on a 5-point Likert scale. After an experimental gymnastics treatment lasting for 9 months, the subjects were tested two months, and four years post treatment. Trends in the quality of skills retention can be organized into several groups: the first group of skills did not show the differences between different measurement points; however, in the second group, a significant deterioration in performance between measurement points was noted. The third group of skills, structurally the most complex one, showed the differences only after 4 years of the retention period. It can be concluded that no link between the skills has been established, which would precisely define the causes of different trends regarding the decrease in the level of skills. Namely, for some skills, a retention period of two months was sufficient to determine the actual level of acquisition, while some skills required a significantly longer time, in our case 4 years, to determine the actual level of their acquisition.

Monitoring players during match play has become a fundamental approach to gain understanding on soccer demands. Considering there has been growing interest in performances of young players, it is important to understand on young players training requirement. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the relationship between match running performance and physical capacities in U15 young soccer players. Twenty outfield players from sports school and academy (n=20, 1.63±0.8 m, and 56.1±9.5 kg) volunteered to participate in the study. Match running performance was analysed during two matches for each player using 5 Hz global positioning system. The participants performed the Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Level 1 (YYIR1), Countermovement Jump (CMJ) and 20 m Sprint to determine the physical capacities. The results showed there were no significant relationship between; total distance covered and YY1R1, sprint distance and leg power, maximum sprint speed during matches (km.h-1) with 20 m sprint (P>0.05). These results suggest that physical capacity test should not be used as a single factor in recognizing a young player’s potential to excel and to predict soccer performance. Young players may not need extraordinary capacity; however, they must possess a reasonably high level within all areas to be a good player.
在比赛中监测球员已经成为了解足球需求的基本方法。考虑到人们对年轻球员的表现越来越感兴趣，了解年轻球员的训练要求很重要。因此，本研究的目的是研究U15青少年足球运动员比赛跑动表现与体能的关系。来自体校和学院的20名外场运动员(n=20, 1.63±0.8 m, 56.1±9.5 kg)自愿参与研究。使用5hz全球定位系统分析了每位球员在两场比赛中的比赛跑动表现。参与者通过溜溜球间歇恢复级别1 (YYIR1)、反向跳跃(CMJ)和20米冲刺来确定身体能力。结果表明:;总跑距离与YY1R1、冲刺距离与腿部力量、20 m冲刺时比赛最大冲刺速度(km.h-1) (P>0.05)。这些结果表明，体能测试不应该被用作识别年轻球员的潜力和预测足球表现的单一因素。年轻球员可能不需要非凡的能力;然而，他们必须在所有领域都有相当高的水平才能成为一名优秀的玩家。

The concept of burnout, and indeed its increasing prevalence in recent years, has been a matter οf major concern among psycologists, sociologists and HR specialists. This research aims to explore the impact of physical activity on burnout syndrome experienced by emergency room nurses in public hospitals. The preliminary research sample consisted of 476 emergency room nurses working in the 3rd, 4th and 5th Health Regions of Greece. The participants’ age ranged from 22 to 60years (age 42.49±9.5 years). The participants completed questionnaires that assessed burnout and physical activity. The Maslach Burnout Inventory was utilised, which comprises 22 symptom items and measures three dimensions: emotional exhaustion, personal accomplishment and depersonalisation. In addition, and for measuring physical activity, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ, short version) (recall period one week) (Craig, et. al., 2003) was used. The said questionnaire consists of 7 questions collecting information on the time spent each day in vigorous, moderate and walking physical activities as well as the time spent sitting over a period of seven days. The measurement method used was the Likert scale. The results showed that nurses experienced a high level of burnout, whilst the majority of them demonstrated a low level of physical activity and that physical activity is directly correlated to burnout, as is positively effects all three factors. It is therefore concluded that physical activity seems to have a positive effect on the emotional balance of the worker helping him/her deal with the symptoms of burnout.

This study aimed to analyze the effect of a single bout of high-intensity intermittent exercise (HIIE) on serum adiponectin levels in sedentary overweight young adult women. A total of 22 overweight adult obesity women with a BMI of 23-24.9 m2/kg were enrolled in this study. Subjects were divided into 2 groups, control and HIIE. The exercise was static cycling for a total of 25 minutes (3 minutes warming up, 20 minutes HIIE, and 2 minutes cooling down). The HIIE was held 10 sets intermittently with the ratio 1:1, 1 minute cycling in 80-90% HRmax, 1 minute active resting with 40 rpm cycling. The data in this study were taken before and 1 hour after the HIIE. The adiponectin level was measured using a human ELISA kit. The adiponectin level in the control group reduced significantly (p<0.05), however, the HIIE group reduced insignificantly. A single bout of HIIE in sedentary overweight young adult women can maintain the adiponectin level. Therefore, it may have a positive contribution to women’s health. However, further research needs to be conducted to uncover the underlying mechanism.

The military parachutists are responsible of special air operations who require certain capabilities in their physical condition, due to their intense professional career. The analysis of oxygen con-sumption (VO2) and heart rate (HR) allows the determination of aerobic (VT1) and anaerobic (VT2) thresholds and used to study the adequacy of the organism to exercise and in the analysis of sporting performance. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of tactical equipment on the stress test performance of elite parachutists. 10 parachutists parti-cipated in the study, between 22 and 36 years old with an average of 27.75 years (±4.20). Anthropometric values were determined of: weight 75.69 kg (±8.79), height 173.34 cm (±5.72) and body mass index (BMI) 25.23 (±2.98). Each one, performed 2 maximal treadmill exercise testing: one a conventional stress test (A) and another with the tactical equipment (weight 20 kg) (B). We obtained maximum oxygen consumption (Metalyzer 3B) and monitored the electrocardiogram continuously. The test started at a speed of 6km/h and a slope of 1%. The results of the two test were compared. The average value and standard deviation (SD) of different variables with equipment (B) and without it (A) and p-value were obtained: velocity (A: 14.80±3.29; B: 11.50±1.42 Km/h; p=0.073), HR (A: 182.7±58.62; B: 177.75±9.71 b/m; p=0.038), VO2 (A: 51.75±13.60; B: 54.00±30.82 ml/Kg/min; p=0.891). Al-so, the values of ventilatory thresholds: VT1 and VT2 of both tests were obtained, with sig-nificant differences. Tactical equipment causes a decrease in stress test performance with changes in VT1 and VT2.

This study aimed to determine whether vertical jump performance differs among youth players with different performance levels. A total of 84 youth male soccer players from the U19 category were recruited. The players were divided into the elite (EG) and sub-elite (SEG) groups based on their performance level. The vertical jump (VJ) performance during countermovement jump with free arms (CMJFA) and drop jump (DJ) were measured using two force platforms Kistler B8611A at a sampling rate of 1000 Hz (KISTLER Instrumente AG, Switzerland). The following outcome variables were calculated in all participants: vertical jump height (VJH), vertical ground reaction force (VGRF), and force impulse (FI) in absolute and relative values. Data analysis showed no significant differences (p>0.05) with trivial to small effects in VJH for both jump types (CMJFA and DJ) between EG and SEG. FIrelative provides a good indication of VJH in comparison with the other kinematic variables selected in this study. The leg muscle mass (LMM) ratio normalised to body mass provides a better association with VJH than the other selected morphological variables in this study, although a small effect size was observed. VJH does not appear to be a distinguishing feature among soccer players in the first two performance levels in the U19 category. Therefore, the results may not be sensitive enough to differentiate the performance levels, especially when the difference is only in one performance level. Future research should consider using other parameters, such as the eccentric rate of force development or reactive strength index, as recommended in a previous study.

The Covid-19 outbreak has also led to significant changes in football, such as the suspension of leagues, isolation, and the fact that football players are forced to train on their own. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine if there were differences in the level of preparation, practices, and motivation for athletic training among young professional football players during the Covid-19 pandemic, depending on the level of competition. The sample of respondents consisted of 82 young football players from Bosnia and Herzegovina, divided into the first league group (n=47, 18.30±0.62 age) and the second league group (n=35, 17.66±0.73 age). The questionnaire for sports preparation and training (SPEQ) was used, which consists of 11 items and was created according to the existing questionnaire for self-assessment of the level of preparation and type of training of athletes during the training process in the Covid-19 pandemic. Also, a questionnaire on sports motivation during the Covid-19 pandemic was used, consisting of 18 items related to motivation to participate in sports, modified according to the Participation Motivation Questionnaire (PMQ). A five-point Likert scale was used for the questionnaire. The questionnaire was available in electronic form and was sent to the football players through a Google form. The difference was found only in the frequency of the type of exercise in two variables, while there were no differences between the groups of young football players in the other variables of training frequency, level of preparation, and motivation in sports training. It was also established that despite the Covid-19 situation, the motivation for sports training among young football players was at a very high level.

There are many factors that have an influence on obesity therefore, early regular monitoring of morphological characteristics and nutritional status of children is the best prevention method. This study aimed to examine the influence of two regional zones in Montenegro on morphological differences and the nutritional status of school girls. The sample of respondents was selected from several different primary schools. The sample was divided by regions (Vlada Crne Gore, 2011) into two groups, girls from the Central region (n-55, 10.21±.72 years), and the Coastal region (n- 42, 10.33±.59 years). Morphological characteristics were assessed using a battery of four variables: body height (BH), body weight (BW), waist circumference (WC), and hip circumference (HC). BMI and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) values were calculated. We used WHO cutoff points for the assessment of the children’s nutrition status. For determining differences between children living in different regions we used a T-test for independent samples. 27.27% of girls from the Central region are obese compared to 23.81% of obese in the Coastal region. When comparing groups by regional regions, it is noticeable that there is no significant difference in morphological characteristics and body mass index. Although there is no difference in the morphological characteristics between girls of the Central and Coastal regions, for more detailed conclusions, a larger number of morphological parameters should be monitored on a larger sample of respondents.
影响肥胖的因素很多，因此，早期定期监测儿童的形态特征和营养状况是最好的预防方法。本研究旨在探讨黑山两个区域对女学生形态差异和营养状况的影响。受访者的样本选自几所不同的小学。样本按地区划分(Vlada Crne Gore, 2011)分为两组，中部地区女孩(n-55, 10.21±。72年)，沿海地区(n- 42, 10.33±。59年)。形态学特征通过四个变量进行评估:身高(BH)、体重(BW)、腰围(WC)和臀围(HC)。计算BMI和腰臀比(WHR)值。我们使用世界卫生组织的分界点来评估儿童的营养状况。为了确定生活在不同地区的儿童之间的差异，我们对独立样本使用了t检验。中部地区女孩肥胖率为27.27%，沿海地区为23.81%。当按区域进行分组比较时，值得注意的是，形态特征和体重指数没有显著差异。虽然中部和沿海地区女孩的形态特征没有差异，但为了得到更详细的结论，需要在更大的调查对象样本上监测更多的形态参数。

This study aimed to examine the influence of two regional zones in Montenegro on morphological differences and the nutritional status of school girls. The sample of respondents was selected from several different primary schools. The sample was divided by regions (Vlada Crne Gore, 2011) into two groups, girls from the Central region (n-55, 10.21±.72 years), and the Coastal region (n- 42, 10.33±.59 years). Morphological characteristics were assessed using a battery of four variables: body height (BH), body weight (BW), waist circumference (WC), and hip circumference (HC). BMI and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) values were calculated. We used WHO cutoff points for the assessment of the children’s nutrition status. For determining differences between children living in different regions we used a T-test for independent samples. 27.27% of girls from the Central region are obese compared to 23.81% of obese in the Coastal region. When comparing groups by regional regions, it is noticeable that there is no significant difference in morphological characteristics and body mass index. Although there is no difference in the morphological characteristics between girls of the Central and Coastal regions, for more detailed conclusions, a larger number of morphological parameters should be monitored on a larger sample of respondents.","PeriodicalId":22150,"journal":{"name":"Sport Mont","volume":"60 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91344978","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 importance of physical activity, as one of the crucial resources for maintaining and improving physical health, was diminished during the Covid-19 pandemic. Except for the impact it has on physical health, physical activity may have various psychological benefits, especially during the development period of adolescence. The current findings of physical activity show that adolescents are more physically inactive during the pandemic than usual. Also, there are increasingly negative psychological outcomes in adolescents. The purpose of this study was to explore the levels of physical activity, negative affectivity, coping and preoccupation with the pandemic in an adolescent sample. The study involved 2409 adolescents (53.5% girls, 46.5% boys) from elementary and high schools aged 10 to 19. The Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) was applied, and information about levels of physical activity, coping and preoccupation with pandemic and isolation measures were collected. Participants answered on a Likert-type scale. Findings of this research show that on average male adolescents are more likely to engage in physical activities than females. Also, a relation of physical inactivity distress and preoccupation was obtained for adolescent girls. No similar finding was found for males. However, very high physical activity (five or more times a week) was a protective factor for coping and preoccupation with coronavirus infection. The conclusion of this research indicates that levels of physical activity have a different effect on male and female adolescents during the Covid-19 pandemic. It can be concluded that female adolescents that are less physically active are more at risk of depression, anxiety and stress.

This transversal study assessed the opinions of young athletes in martial arts regarding doping. The study involved 59 young adolescents performing judo and sambo at the Vologda region sport schools of the Russian Federation (average age=11.8±0.61 years old). The diagnostic was performed using a questionnaire. The respondents expressed their degree of agreement with 12 statements regarding the problem of doping and the use of illegal drugs in sports. Responses were assessed based on the 4-point Likert scale, and the sum of the points was interpreted in terms of the level of the value component of the anti-doping culture. This study showed that the respondents understand the importance of the doping problem for the modern international sports movement. However, a significant number of respondents tend to believe that without doping, sports competitions become less spectacular, and victory “at any cost” is still a victory. Our findings are of practical value for selecting content and methods for anti-doping education of young athletes before the beginning of their typical competitive experience.
