Body composition is an important factor in the physical fitness and health of athletes. The aim of this research is to identify and compare body composition (BC) of female players including volleyball (VB) (X with Age=21.48±2.64), handball (HB) (X with Age =18.42±2.62), and soccer (SOC) (X with Age =18.37±2.41). Total and regional body composition of each player were evaluated with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry method (DXA). According to the results of the MANOVA, there was a statistically significant difference between female players from different team sports on the combined dependent variables (F=2.14; p=.007; Pillai’s Trace=1.45; η2=.73). When the results for the dependent variables were considered separately, SOC players had significantly lower lean arm mass (F=6.27; p=.004; η2=.23), lean leg mass (F=7.92; p=.001; η2=.27), lean android mass (F=8.85; p=.001; η2=.29), lean gyonoid mass (F=9.01; p=.001; η2=.30), and Total BMC (F=7.25; p=.002; η2=.25) than those of VB and HB players. In addition, while SOC players had significantly lower lean body mass (F=4.97; p=.011; η2=.19) than VB players; HB players had significantly higher leg fat mass (F=4.77; p=.013; η2=.18) and gyonoid fat mass (F=4.37; p=.019; η2=.17) than SOC players. In conclusion, body compositions of female team players of SOC, VB, and HB varied. Coaches and sports scientists are advised to plan training considering the differences between sports branches.

Both high-intensity interval training and training in hypoxic conditions have gained popularity in recent years due to their cardiorespiratory and metabolic benefits. Recent studies focus on the combined effects of both factors in detail. But there is still a scientific gap in the literature on the effects caused and its magnitude in response to this type of training. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the acute effects of Repeated Wingate Style HIIT applied in hypoxic and normoxic conditions on oxidant and antioxidant indicators of recreationally active men. Sixteen participants were randomly assigned to normoxic or hypoxic groups and then they were completed a wingate style 30s*4rps*4 min (sprint time * repeats * recover between sprints) HIIT on normoxic and hypoxic conditions (2500m, FiO2: 0.130) in the normobaric environment. The normality assumption calculated using a Shapiro-Wilk test to ensure the normal distribution of the quantitative for all data (p < 0.05). To analyze differences in baseline data between groups an Independent Sample t-test was performed. The Two-way analysis of variance was used in repeated measurements to reveal the effects of training under hypoxia and normoxia conditions (time, time × group interactions) oxidant and antioxidants. The activities of blood oxidant and antioxidant did not change significantly after training in the hypoxic and normoxic group. As a result, repeated Wingate style HIIT applied in hypoxic and normoxic conditions, did not change both MDA (p=0.79), which is an indicator of oxidant stress, and SOD (p=0.46), CAT (p=0.26), and GSHPX (p=0.17), which are general indicators of antioxidant defense.

Dual-task paradigms are typically used for two different aims. The first aim is to investigate the demands of attention of a motor task, and the other aim is to examine the effects of simultaneous cognitive or motor tasks on motor performance. The purpose of the current research is to determine the changes in motor performance times of national (experts) and non-national players (novices) during motor tasks including cognitive cues. Fifteen male national taekwondo players, who are active in taekwondo (age=17.8±1.65 years; training experience=6-13 years; training frequency=5-6 dayweek, 2-3 hourday) and 15 male non-national taekwondo players (age=16.8±1.68 year; training years=3-9 years; training frequency=1.86 ± 0.22 hourday and 4.33 ± 0.61 day / week) were voluntarily included in the study. FitLight Trainer™ system was used to determine the dual-task performance of participants. The performance time of expert players was statistically and significantly lower compared to novice players (Random Test: t=3.884, p <0.05; Cue Test: t=3.155, p <0.05; Mixed Cue Test: t=3.013, p<0.05). This study reveals; (1) expert players automatically make postural control adjustments during the motor task, and they put less cognitive effort than they are minimally considered, (2) they show a positive development in regular physical activities and training, and other systems, especially in the proprioceptive system, involved in balance control. We conclude that performances of novices suffer considerably in motor-cognitive dual-task situations. Therefore, training with dual-tasks might be useful working memory skills and attentional control of novice players. We conclude that dual-tasks acutely impacts motor and cognitive performance. Therefore, training with dual-tasks might be useful working memory skills and attentional control of novice players. We conclude that dual-tasks acutely impacts motor and cognitive performance. In future studies, dual-task paradigms between different combat sports and comparisons of postural control strategies should be measured.
双任务范式通常用于两个不同的目标。第一个目的是研究运动任务的注意力需求，另一个目的是研究同时进行的认知或运动任务对运动表现的影响。本研究的目的是确定国家(专家)和非国家运动员(新手)在包括认知线索的运动任务中运动表现时间的变化。活跃于跆拳道运动的国家级男子跆拳道运动员15名(年龄=17.8±1.65岁;培训经验=6-13年;训练频次=5-6天/周，2-3小时/天)，非国家跆拳道男选手15名(年龄=16.8±1.68岁;培训年限=3-9年;训练频率分别为1.86±0.22小时/天和4.33±0.61天/周)的患者自愿加入研究。使用FitLight Trainer™系统来确定参与者的双任务表现。专家玩家的表现时间显著低于新手玩家(随机检验:t=3.884, p <0.05;线索检验:t=3.155, p <0.05;混合线索检验:t=3.013, p<0.05)。这项研究表明;(1)专家级运动员在运动任务中会自动进行姿势控制调整，他们所付出的认知努力比他们所考虑的要少;(2)他们在常规的体育活动和训练中表现出积极的发展，其他系统，特别是本体感觉系统，涉及平衡控制。我们的结论是，新手在运动-认知双任务情况下的表现相当糟糕。因此，双任务训练可能对新手的工作记忆技能和注意力控制有帮助。我们得出结论，双重任务严重影响运动和认知表现。因此，双任务训练可能对新手的工作记忆技能和注意力控制有帮助。我们得出结论，双重任务严重影响运动和认知表现。在未来的研究中，需要对不同格斗运动的双任务范式和姿势控制策略的比较进行测量。

This study aimed to investigate whether hand and finger exercises had an effect on shooting accuracy and if they did, determine the shot grouping of these exercises and analyze its relationship with shooting statistic data. In this study, to obtain the findings of the investigation, a model with a pretest and a posttest was implemented on an experimental and a control group. A total of forty teenage girls in the 15-18 age group having no shooting experience before participated in the study. Participants were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group regularly participated in hand and finger exercises for a total of 10 weeks, 3 days a week, 1 hour a day. Within the scope of the investigation, to determine the shooting accuracy of subjects, the SCATT Shooting Training System was utilized. In order to evaluate the data obtained from the sample group, a package program SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) was used. The level of significance was considered to be 0.05 in statistical analysis. The investigation showed that there was a significant variance (p< 0.01) between hand and finger exercises and shooting score, diametrical dispersion, mean length of aiming trace, and stability of aiming in pretestposttest measurements of the experimental group. Outcomes of our study have indicated that hand and finger exercises have a positive effect on shooting accuracy. In this study administered on subjects with no shooting experience before, we speculate that hand and finger exercises affect performance to such an extent that they will enhance shooting performance when combined with technical and mental training, and we recommend that shooters should specifically include hand and finger exercises in their training program.

Depressive symptoms among older adults are the second leading cause of disability and functional decline. Physical activity has gained considerable attention for its benefits in preventing and treating depressive symptoms. The majority of existing studies are quantitative in nature, but qualitative research into how people with depressive symptoms view physical activity in relation to their mental health is insufficient. We recruited 23 female participants from a recreational center in Ljubljana to participate in semi-structured interviews. Our aim was to identify how physical activity influences everyday life and its perceived effect on mental health among our participants. We used mixed methods, with an accent on qualitative methods. Conventional content analysis was used to explore the data from the interviews. We identified that increased satisfaction, well-being, and improved physical health are key factors through which participants find physical activity useful in stress and depression management. We can conclude that intentional physical activity in the form of walking, running, cycling, or group or individual workouts has a positive impact on physical and psychological wellbeing and has a positive impact on a person’s life. Our findings can be used in future studies to assess any successful non-pharmacological treatments for depression symptoms, such as different exercise programs, support groups, or different social activities.

The aim of this research was to determine the differences related to morphological characteristics and body composition among female players of Montenegro national junior volleyball team and Kosovo national junior volleyball team. A sample of the subject consists of a total of 25 top-level female junior players who were members of two national teams, participants of the European Championship qualifying 2020. The first sub-sample of the subjects consisted of 13 players of National team of Montenegro, of the average age 17.13 ± 0.54, while the other sub-sample consisted of 12 players of National team of Kosovo, of the average age of 16.35 ± 0.41. Anthropometric characteristics in the body composition were evaluated by a battery of 11 variables: body height (cm), body weight (kg), triceps skinfold (mm), back skinfold, biceps skinfold, abdominal skinfold, thigh skinfold, calf skinfold, body mass index (BMI), percentage of fat (%) and muscle mass (kg). Statistically significant differences (p< 0.05) between body composition and morphological characteristic of the female volleyball players of two national teams, Montenegro and Kosovo, were determined by using a discriminatory parametric procedure with t-test for small independent samples. The results showed that the female volleyball players of Montenegro are somewhat higher, also they have greater body mass index, greater muscle mass and a significantly lower percentage of fat, compared to the female volleyball players of Kosovo. When it comes to variables of skinfolds, it was demonstrated only one statistical significance in favor of the Montenegrin National team, variable skinfold thigh.

The aim of study is to examine the physical and psychological effects of aerobic exercises applied to mothers of children with CP. The study was conducted with 27 mothers of children with CP and diagnosed with Spastic Quadriplegia. During exercises, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility and cardiac exercises were applied. The" SF-36 Quality of Life Scale" was used to obtain health-related data. In order to measure muscle strength, manual muscle test and dynamometer measurements were used. Before and after the exercises, which were held three days a week for 8 weeks, measurements were made. T-test for dependent groups was performed in order to identify the difference between measurements. According to SF-36 Quality of Life Scale, significant differences were observed in terms of the variables of physical function, physical role difficulty, pain, vitality, social functionality, mental health, emotional role difficulty, and perception of general health (p0.05). When the pretest and posttest scores obtained from the manual muscle test were compared, significant differences were determined in right arm supination, left arm supination, right arm pronation, and left arm pronation (p< 0.05). It was determined that various exercises performed had positive effects in terms of eliminating functional deficiencies, alleviating pain, socialization, and beck health in individuals who experienced problems related to physical and psychological health.

Swim coaches conduct the technique analysis themselves, through observation and qualitative assessment. The latter is based on their own knowledge and experience. They have to identify the technique mistakes and assess them in terms of their impact on the swimmer's performance. Recognizing this, there is a clear need for an assessment tool which can help swimming instructors and coaches in their work with swimmers of different quality levels. The study aimed to first develop and then validate a tool for the front crawl technique assessment (FCTA). Twenty-one experienced swimming instructors and coaches evaluated 48 mistakes most common in the front crawl for their impact on swimming performance. Based on their perceptions, we developed the FCTA tool. By using the FCTA, we numerically evaluated the mistakes that occurred during participants’ maximal 50-meter front crawl test. We found a strong correlation between both the times achieved and amounts of numerically evaluated mistakes made by the participants in the swim test. These results indicated that the FCTA could be a valid tool to effectively assess the technical skills of intermediate and advanced level swimmers in front crawl. However, this was a pilot study, so all conclusions are preliminary and require further research.

The results of numerous medical studies and kinesiology research show the existence of differences in the pulmonary function with reference to age, body height and size and the relation of certain parameters of body composition. The aim of this research is to determine eventual differences in the health and pulmonary function with soldiers of different age. The sample of examinees consisted of 240 members of Montenegro Armed Forces, having between 18 to 57 years of age, divided into 8 subsamples of 30 examinees each (following the age category). The sample of measures were made of the following indicators of pulmonary function: 1) Forced Vital Capacity, 2) Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second, 3) the proportion of Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second and the Forced Vital Capacity and 4) Peak Expiratory Flow. The central and dispersion parameters of variables were calculated for all variables. For examining the potential differences between the subsamples of examinees, and for determining the actual source of variability between the groups, multivariate and univariate analysis of the variance were applied, as well as the post hoc test with Tukey's model. Statistically significant differences were determined in pulmonary function compared to the age of soldiers. The pulmonary function of soldiers from 18 until 21 years of age differ from the soldiers of the next three age categories. Also, were determined that the next three variables mostly contribute to that difference: Forced Vital Capacity, Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second and the Peak Expiratory Flow. In the Forced Vital Capacity were determined relatively constant values were detected from 32 until 52 years of age of the soldiers. The obtained results confirm the effect of numerous specific factors in the system of functioning of the military organization.

In football, the fans can be qualified as the tremendous power of teams that are thought to have a significant share in the success. The fans support their team both materially and morally by integrating with the team emotionally. Sometimes, the emotional bond possessed goes beyond the normal and results in the understanding of seeing one's team as superior to other teams. This research aims to examine the interaction between football fans' fanaticism and football team evangelism (eFANgelism). As part of the study group of the research, 448 football fans participated. Research data were collected with the football fanaticism scale and the sports eFANgelism scale. In the study, comparisons were made between fanaticism and eFANgelism in terms of the variables of the participants. Among the models created in the research, it was suggested that Model1= football fans' eFANgelism levels had a positive effect on their fanaticism, Model2= violence tendency and corporate affiliation had a positive effect on eFANgelism, and the hypothesis was tested. As a result of testing the hypotheses, H1= eFANgelism has a two-way positive and significant effect on the violence tendency of football fans (p<0.01).
