The aim of this research was to determine the trend change in the morphological features of boys aged 7 to 10, of various nutritional status, with particular emphasis on the trend of occurrence of obesity among the same population. The sample consisted of 1164 boys, divided into four sub-groups (based on their age), and then each sub-group was further divided into three groups depending on their nutritional status. Four morphological factors were measured: the longitudinal, transversal and circular dimensionality of the skeleton, body mass and subcutaneous fat tissue. They were used to determine the morphological characteristics of the participants. The data were processed using the SPSS 20.0 statistics program. To determine the dynamics of change in the increasing or decreasing continuum, a trend analysis was used. By analyzing and evaluating the results obtained during the course of this study, differences in morphological characteristics were determined between children with normal body mass, overweight children and obese children of various ages. The dynamic of the change in the aforementioned characteristics in most morphological spaces of the boys indicated a continued increase that accompanies the age of the participants. Among the participants with normal body mass and overweight participants, a discontinued form of development among the morphological characteristics was noted. The discontinued form of development is visible among obese participants in the space which refers to measuring subcutaneous fat tissue. A significantly greater annual increase in body fat, compared to the average, was also noted.

The Female Athlete Triad (Triad) is a medical condition of female athletes consisting of three components: low energy availability (EA), menstrual dysfunction (MD), and low bone mineral density (BMD). The prevalence of all three components of the Triad ranges from 1-14%. In last ten years, it has ranged from 1.3% up to 23% with 78% of female athletes having at least one of the three components of the Triad. The aim of this systematic review is to collect and analyze recent studies of the Female Athlete Triad. Based on an analysis of electronic databases and the inclusion criteria set, 20 studies were included in the analysis. The following conclusions are proposed based on their analysis: MD was the most prevalent among endurance athletes with ranges from 35.5% to 60.7%, with the presence of secondary amenorrhea and oligomenorrhea, 30% to 64.0% and 18% to 27.0% and with a very high level of cases with irregular menorrhea, 72.3%. Low/negative EA ranges from 19.8% among non-leanness athletes and up to 77%. The greatest proportion of athletes in moderate- and high-risk categories for expressing the Triad participated in sports that emphasize leanness, including cross-country, gymnastics running, and lacrosse. A recommendation for future research is that they should focus on enhanced monitoring of physically active women, and the prevention of the Triad, stress fractures and osteoporosis.

The aim of this research is to determine the relation between body height and lordotic posture in preschool children. The survey was conducted on a sample of 149 participants (78 boys and 71 girls), aged 6 years (± 6 months), of an average body height (BH) of 121.94±10.29 cm, and the body mass 23.20±4.83kg in the city of Kragujevac (Serbia). To assess lordotic posture, the Spinal Mouse was used, and all values above 30˚ were treated as disorders in the lumbar region. In determining the size of the body, the Anthropometer by Martin is used, and the participants were divided into five groups by height. The existence and size of the correlation between the investigated areas was calculated by the use of the Pearson's chi-squared test and contingency coefficient as a measure of correlation. From the total sample, lortodic posture is present in 8.05 % of the participants, and in terms of gender the incidence of poor posture is equal. Lordotic posture is most pronounced in the group of boys and girls with the BH of 123.01-127.00 cm, followed by the group of girls with a BH of 121.51-123.00 cm. The lowest incidence of lordotic posture is determined in the groups with BH over 127.01 cm, and below 119 cm. The values of the Pearson's chi-squared test indicate a statistically significant correlation between lordotic posture and body height, with a significance 0.03.

The main aim of this research is to investigate the relationship between the characteristic ways of overcoming the midlife crisis and the various ways of fatigue elimination. More precisely, to examine the correlation between denial by escape, denial by overcompensation, decompensation, and creative and successful coping with the crisis on the one hand and fatigue elimination with chemical stimulants, with psychological stimulation and with physical activity (PA) and active rest on the other, as well as the gender differences within these variables. The sample consisted of 300 middle-aged people, aged between 40 and 64, uniform by gender. The following instruments were used: A list of the respondents’ basic biodata, the Midlife Crisis Scale and an evaluation scale representing the basic techniques of fatigue elimination in participants from different categories specifically designed for the research. Since the score distribution on the tested variables statistically deviate from normal distribution, non-parametric techniques were used. Pearson's correlation coefficient was applied for determining the connection between variables and the Mann Whitney U test for testing the difference between the groups of participants. The obtained results show that there is a statistically significant correlation between adequate PA, as a way of fatigue elimination, and the creative and successful coping with the crisis, as well as a moderate connection between different types of passive rest and decompensation, especially in women. It can be concluded that moderate, well-prescribed, and age-appropriate PA, as an important form of active rest, is connected with the most optimal way of coping with a midlife crisis.

This paper emphasizes the important place that physical education and sport have in the system of education, as well as the significance of health, physical and functional abilities and interests for physical activities. This research examines the attitudes of secondary schoolchildren towards sport and physical activities. The research is focused on three basic goals: 1. Theoretical, which analyzes the relevant reference materials with the purpose of recognizing theoretical and methodological aspects related to the study of the importance of sport and physical activities among young people; 2. Cognitive, which examines the schoolchildren’s attitudes towards sport and physical activities; 3. Applicable, which means that this research is expected to contribute to the increase of the secondary schoolchildren’s awareness of the importance of sport and physical activities. The methods used are descriptive and the Likert-type scale (SASS-FAS) containing 28 items. The research was conducted with the sample of 1013 secondary schoolchildren on the territory of the Nišava District. The obtained results show that schoolchildren have positive attitudes towards physical education and sport. However, their responses prove that they spend their free time doing some other, non-physical activities. The secondary schoolchildren’s responses are characterized by a high level of consistency with no statistically significant difference evident regarding the school grade they attend, p>0.05.

The aim of the research is to determine whether there are gender differences between younger school-age children, and whether those differences within the sub-sample are influenced by the state of mass and motor skills. The whole sample included 285 respondents age 7.27±0.43, of which 144 boys (50.52%), and 141 girls (49.48%) who attended the first grade on the territory of the Province of Vojvodina (Republic of Serbia). The Eurofit battery of tests was used. The research results show that the prevalence of children with severe thinness in the whole sample is low 3.87%; children with normal mass 65.26%; pre-obese children only 18.59% and obese children only 12.28%, so that gender differences in motor skills considering the whole sample, apart from the mass, are between average values for boys considering explosive strength of the lower extremities, repetitive strength of the body and agility. Statistically significant differences within the sub-sample considering motor abilities were seen neither in boys nor in girls of different mass. The research findings show that there is significant percentage of children with normal mass and that the flow of their mass is within their growth and development. Their motor development within the sub-sample also flows equally, and gender differences are present because of differentiation of motor skills, which appears in this period. The authors think that greater differences and variables in respect to mass and motor activities are to be seen in the period of pre-puberty.

The aim of this research was to determine which kinematic parameters generate the maximum sprint speed of the world’s fastest sprinter, Usain Bolt. The biomechanical parameters of a double sprint step, using a 2D kinematic analysis under conditions of the realization of its maximum velocity were analyzed. The APAS computer system was used for the kinematic analysis. The data was recorded with three digital cameras CASIO EX-F1 with a frequency of 300 Hz, while the cameras were connected to one another and synchronized. The measurements were performed at the international athletics competition IAAF World Challenge in Zagreb, Croatia. Bolt reached a maximum speed of 12.42 m·s-1 in the section between 70 and 90 meters. His average stride length in this section was 2.70 m at an average frequency of 4.36 strides/s. His average contact time was 0.86 s and the average duration of his flight phase was 0.145 s. He developed a maximum vertical ground reaction force of 3956.74 N. This force corresponds to 4.1 times the weight of the athlete. The ratio between his braking and propulsion phase was 37.3% : 62.7%, which is a good indicator of an economical running technique. The maximum speed of Usain Bolt is a combination of optimal anthropometric characteristics, motor abilities, and an extremely rational technique of sprinting gait.
