Abstract Introduction: The current handball performance, both nationally and internationally, has obvious progress in terms of the dynamics of the game in all phases of its development in attack and defense, characterized by the speed and complexity of development throughout the game. Anthropometric parameters and physical tests have been identified as fundamental to determining the success of handball performance. Examining fitness profiles could be of great importance for the optimal preparation of training plans and the orthopedic care of high-performance handball players. Materials and methods: Seven athletes from the handball club SCM Politehnica Timișoara, aged between 21 and 35, participated in this study. The tests conducted were aimed at evaluating the following parameters: body composition, strength of the lower and upper limbs and speed endurance. Results: The results obtained in body composition show an average value for weight of 90.14 ± 8.35kg, for BF 15.55 ± 2.79% and for BMI 25.32 ± 0.98 kg/m2. In dynamometric tests, the mean values were obtained for VJ height of 27.85 ± 6.02 cm, for CMJ height the value of 28.07 ± 2.74 cm and for SJ height the value of 27.42 ± 2.67 cm. The mean value for the maximum oxygen consumption VO2max was 49.32 ± 2.32 ml / kg / min, and for the total distance traveled was obtained, 1714.28 ± 208.7 m. Conclusions: Analyzing the data obtained and by comparison with international average reference values, it can be concluded that a specific physical training regime based on the level and position of the player on the field is needed to improve the technical procedures during the match and prevent injuries.

Abstract Introduction: In handball, the time for physical training is limited, because the focus is placed on the technical-tactical and mental aspects. The introduction of specific physical training is crucial in increasing the sports performance. Even though handball is a team sport, match analysis has shown that physical training in modern handball should be pointed towards the specific playing position and individual physical ability of the players. Materials and methods: The subjects who participated in this are from two groups: the control group consisting of 16 junior I athletes aged 16-18 years, from the CSM Resita handball club, and the experimental group represented by 16 junior I athletes aged between 16-18 years old, from the handball club SCM Politehnica Timișoara. On the experimental group, it was applied in addition to the specific training program, an additional strength training program to increase strength and endurance. The tests aimed to evaluate the following parameters: specific power and specific energy of lower and upper limbs or aerobic fitness. Results and discussions: For both dynamometric and endurance tests, statistically significant differences for all parameters have been registered only for the experimental group. The results showed an important improvement in the variables of the experimental group after training. Conclusions: The objective to improve the physical training of junior handball players by applying a complementary training program was achieved.

Abstract Introduction: Given that fitness facilities such as gyms, fitness clubs, and health clubs play an important role in the current era and they have the ability to offer opportunities for daily physical activity and leisure sports to many people, it is important to examine the factors that affect their members in adhering to consistent long- term physical activity. Purpose: This study examines the factors that influence adherence to physical activity in the long term among members of various fitness facilities settings through a narrative review. Material and methods: A search for studies and articles relating to adopting and maintaining regular physical activity in fitness facility settings was conducted using four electronic databases (EBSCO, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science). Search criteria included terms related to fitness facilities, physical activity, and adherence. Only academic articles that were peer-reviewed and published in academic journals were included. Results: A total of 19 studies met the inclusion criteria. The main factors affecting consistency and adherence to exercise at the fitness facilities were: social context, habit and past behavior, professional support, and personal characteristics. Motives and barriers also had an effect on the individual’s abilities to maintain the physical activity level. Conclusion: The current review suggests that success in persevering and adhering to long-term physical activity within the fitness facility setting depends on a number of factors, the most significant being support from friends and family, professional support from fitness professionals, habit formation, and fulfillment of basic psychological needs.

Abstract Introduction: In the context in which physical activity is considered today to be a profession, the profile faculties must seek both, the readaptation of study programs to the requirements of the labor market and the updating of student recruitment policies. This study‘s aim is to analyse AVU‘s PESF admission trials from a bio-motric perspective, in order to improve the admission methodology. Methods: The study is a longitudinal one, and subjects are applicants from the 2017 and 2018 academic year (N=117, M=25±9.20 years, out of which B=88, F=29). Methodological approach: a statistical analysis of applicants‘ admission trials using the IBM SPSS Statistics 19 (C.I. =95%) programme. Trial results have been equated to grades. Correspondingly, the gathered data has been compared to: 11th and 12th grade curricular areas, with data included in Faculty of Physical Education and Sport‘s Report (University of Bucharest) regarding the bio-motric potential of Romanian students (2015) as well as with admission methodology related data from other faculties. Results: The gathered results – grouped per trial type- are: speed Ms= 7.3±2.47, standing jump Msj=6.6±2.46, push up Mpu= 9.86±0.73, football Mf=8.18±1.71, handball Mh= 6.83±2.82, basketball Mb=6.56±4.24, volleyball Mv=8.87±0.97, gymnastics Mg=7.83±1.94. Conclusions: AVU‘s FEFS admission policy requires better suited trials in relation to the bio-motric potential (qualities and motor skills) of today‘s graduates. Also, FEFS‘ educational offer (meaning study programmes, study subjects, curricular content) must be able to better cover work force dynamics and labour market requirements.

Abstract Introduction: Dance therapy has rapidly gained popularity among patients with Parkinson’s disease because it is an enjoyable form of exercise and can provide multi-dimensional benefits. Clinical studies have shown that dance improves motor symptoms, particularly balance and mobility problems, as well as the overall physical condition of Parkinson’s patients. Purpose: The aim of this paper is to highlight the benefits of dance therapy in the clinical management of parkinsonian patients and also to find out which dance is the most advantageous for use in therapy and whether the type of dance used leads to significantly different results. Methods: This paper is a systematic and topical review. After a keyword search, 20 articles on dance therapy in Parkinson’s disease were selected according to the PRISMA model, using Google Scholar and Pubmed as search engines. Results: As a form of physical exercise, dance incorporates vigorous movement, social interaction and cognitive stimulation. Studies have shown that dance can reduce tremor, bradykinesia and stiffness, increasing forward speed and multi-tasking gait. At the same time, spontaneous balance disturbances improved and the risk of falls decreased. Argentine Tango is the most widely used dance in therapy. Although other forms of dance used in research led to significant changes, tango dance was found to produce changes of greater value. However, all types of dance achieved positive results in terms of physical, motor and psycho-emotional aspects of patients. Conclusion: Dance therapy is a feasible and safe method for the rehabilitation of parkinsonian patients, brings improvements in motor and non-motor signs of Parkinson’s disease and practiced for at least 12 months regularly, slows down the progression of the disease.

Abstract Introduction. Patients with knee injuries may be consulted in a first stage by specialists, such as the sports doctor, and in a second stage, depending on the severity of the injury and the therapeutic orientation, it may be necessary to consult an orthopedic surgeon and / or medical rehabilitation. Aim. Particularly important in the traumatic pathology of the knee is the physical examination. It must be rigorous and systematic, because, based on it, a correct diagnosis can be established, which also assesses the severity of the lesions. Only in this way the optimal therapeutic decision be made in order to establish an accurate initial diagnosis and to evaluate the severity of the sprain, depending on which medical or orthopedic-surgical treatment is decided. Methods. Complete and accurate physical examination in the knee sprain, begins with a meticulous anamnestic interview, followed by inspection and palpation. The examination ends with a series of maneuvers to test the various potentially damaged structures of the knee. Results. All the listed elements will allow us to establish the therapeutic management in the recent sprain of the knee and to differentiate the affected structures: sprain with the interest of the collateral ligaments or with the damage of the central pivot, represented by the cruciate ligaments. Conclusion. Although with the advent of imaging investigations methods, which provide particularly important information and the diagnosis becomes much simplified, the stage of the physical examination of the patient in the knee sprain should not be omitted, it is an accessible and extremely useful tool in the orientation toward diagnosis.

Abstract Introduction. To control the movement, the brain must process proprioceptive information provided by mechanoreceptors. The role of proprioception in carrying out daily activities and physical exercises, was presented, using the SEBT technique and the proprioceptive mechanisms that represent the base of dynamic postural control. Objective. The aim was to highlight the effects of proprioceptive training on lower limb balance in subjects with lower limb injuries but also in healthy subjects, and to evaluate the effectiveness of proprioceptive programs based on postural instability to reduce knee sprains by developing proprioceptive control. These findings indicate the improvement of proprioceptive control which may be a key factor in reducing knee sprain. Working hypothesis. Applying a kinetic intervention protocol, consisting of static proprioceptive exercises, stimulates the body to maintain balance in situations of imbalance and increases the stability of the knee joint in Ministry of National Defense workers with a history of sprained knee or predisposition to injury. Methods. The research was performed on 30 subjects, male and female, employees of the Ministry of National Defense, distributed in two experimental groups: G1 and G2. Results. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the applied program, both for therapeutic and prophylactic purposes, in increasing postural balance and proprioceptive control. Conclusions. Knee sprain is a trauma that occurs frequently among athletes. Like athletes, the Ministry of National Defense employees represent a population at high risk of injury or recurrence.

Abstract Introduction: Short distance running is part of the maximum intensity cycling exercises, consisting of combined efforts, each step being performed as a result of a complete impulse, characterized by covering a distance in a shorter time. Objective: This study aims to follow the development of power for the start in short distance speed trials. Material and method: A 26-year-old male athlete, who has been practicing athletics for 14 years, participated in the study, based on the 100-meter flat sprint. The pre-test was performed before the preparation period, the intermediate test after one mesocycle (one month) and the final test after the second mesocycle (after 2 months). The evaluations followed the strength with which 4 exercises were performed (deadlift, clean, power clean and squat) of 6 repetitions each. At the same time, the length of the distance covered in the first three steps from the start was followed. During the two mesocycles, the athlete participated in specific strength development training. Results: After the two-month training period, statistically significant (p<0,05) improvements were observed in 3 of the 4 exercises, with clean improving from 575 W to 626 W, with deadlift from 560 W to 670 W, and at squat from 422 W it reached 676 W. Regarding the result obtained at power clean, an improvement was observed from 556 W to 557 W, statistically insignificant (p = 0.48). At the triple step, there were improvements both when starting with both feet at the same level and when starting with one foot before. Conclusions: Following the results obtained in the three evaluations, we notice that the training program was developed efficiently and that the results improved in all the evaluation tests.
