Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and sufficient physical activity contributes to the preservation of health and self-improvement of student youth. Today in Ukrainian universities, there is a decrease in the number of hours for physical education and a transition to distance learning, which negatively affects the health, level of physical fitness and motivation of young people. The transfer of physical education to a distance form of education caused the need to find new forms and methods of teaching, taking into account new rules for the organization of physical culture and health activities of students in order to preserve their health in extremely limited conditions motor loads. The purpose of our research was to study the factors of a healthy lifestyle of student youth in the context of a dangerous social and ecological environment in Ukraine. 28 first-year students took part in the research. The work used a complex of general scientific theoretical methods: the method of analyzing scientific literature, synthesis, systematization, generalization, the method of surveying applicants (online in the Google Forms application), testing the profile of a healthy lifestyle, methods of mathematical statistics. The results of the testing showed that during the year, under the influence of the change in the socio-ecological state of the environment caused by military actions in Ukraine, four indicators reliably (probably) changed among students: Health Responsibility (HR), Physical Activity (PA), Nutrition (N), Spiritual Growth (SG) and Stress Management (SM), (p˂0.05). It was determined that the behavioral constructs (HR, PA, and N) and the cognitive-emotional component of student youth (SG, IR and SM) are above average and change as a result of the adverse socioeconomic environment. When students choose physical activity, preference is given to aerobic exercises, which have a positive effect on relieving a stressful situation, and breathing exercises from yoga when overcoming panic attacks.

Drawing on Aristotle’s concepts of techne (art or craft) and phronesis (practical wisdom), the purpose of this concept-based article was to showcase that there is techne and phronesis in movement, including their interrelations for the long-lasting love of movement, and thus health and well-being. The paper is divided into four sections. In the first section, the researcher exemplifies the embodied movement of art (techne) emphasizing skill mastery. Movement is both techne and action – a holistic process encompassing sensations of strength, physicality, and mental clarity. In the second section, the researcher emphasizes how wisdom in decision making (phronesis) can lead to active lifestyles via the use of praxis vs. theoria. The links between techne and phronesis are discussed in the third section, whereby skill mastery (techne) can facilitate phronetic action regarding active and healthy lifestyles. This process is exemplified in performing arts, including dancing, aerial dancing, and physical theater. Lastly, implications for movement programming are offered, emphasizing the importance of a strong physical culture to achieve the techne of movement and thus wisdom in decision making about living the good life. There is techne and phronesis in movement, which is a beautiful and powerful combination for health and well-being.
借鉴亚里士多德的 techne(艺术或技艺)和 phronesis(实践智慧)概念,这篇基于概念的文章旨在展示运动中的 techne 和 phronesis,包括它们之间的相互关系,以促进对运动的持久热爱,进而促进健康和幸福。本文分为四个部分。在第一部分中,研究者举例说明了艺术的体现性运动(techne),强调技能的掌握。运动既是技术,也是行动--是一个包含力量感、体能和头脑清晰度的整体过程。在第二部分中,研究人员强调了决策智慧(phronesis)如何通过使用实践与理论(praxis vs. theoria)来实现积极的生活方式。第三部分讨论了技术(techne)和行动(phronesis)之间的联系,即掌握技能(techne)可以促进行动(phronetic),从而实现积极健康的生活方式。这一过程在舞蹈、空中舞蹈和肢体剧等表演艺术中均有体现。最后,提出了对运动计划的影响,强调了强大的体育文化对实现运动技术的重要性,从而为过上美好生活提供决策智慧。运动中既有技术,也有方法,这是促进健康和幸福的美丽而强大的组合。

This systematic review aims to demonstrate that coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) supplementation may be an effective molecule in improving exercise performance and recovering muscle damage, improving antioxidant capacity, and suppressing inflammatory processes. The study covers the literature in PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science and Scopus databases from 2011 to 2023. The final review was conducted on June 6. In the literature analysis, eight keywords (exercise, oxidative stress, CoQ10, muscle damage, inflammation, skeletal muscle, heart muscle, and performance) were employed to investigate the publications. The full texts of 362 full texts of articles were included in this study. These were analyzed according to the PRISMA reporting criteria. In the analysis, one study was conducted with experimental animals, two studies were conducted with male and female participants, and 12 studies were conducted with only male participants. Participants in twelve studies were well-trained. However, two studies were conducted with a sedentary group. In addition, CoQ10 supplementation was present in all studies. CoQ10 supplementation was between 5-60 mg/kg in 4 studies and 100 mg/kg and above in the remaining 10 studies. Antioxidant capacities and inflammation markers were among the parameters of most interest. There were fewer studies on skeletal and cardiac muscle damage and performance markers. CoQ10 supplementation during intense exercise elevates plasma CoQ10 and antioxidant levels while reducing inflammation markers. Additionally, it enhances contractile function in sarcomeres and cardiomyocytes. Nevertheless, additional studies are necessary to comprehensively as certain CoQ10 impact on athletic performance.

The aim of the study was to compare differences in body composition, lower extremity strength, and anaerobic power characteristics among professional football players at different league levels. A total of seventy-one volunteer players aged between eighteen and thirty-five years (mean age: 23.14 ± 4.23 years) participated in the study, representing the Super League, 1st League, and 2nd League. The participants' body compositions were measured using the DXA (Hologic QDR Series, Delphi A model, Bedford, MA, USA) bioelectrical impedance analyzer, CounterMovement Jump (CMJ) strength with the ChronoJump smartspeed mat (INEFC, Barcelona), and Running Anaerobic Sprint Test (RAST) tests were conducted. ANOVA was used to compare multiple groups, and the Duncan multiple comparison tests were conducted in cases where differences were observed to determine which group the difference favored. The results revealed that Super League players statistically possessed more significant values in body composition compared to 1st and 2nd League players and demonstrated significantly higher values in terms of jump height, maximum force output, and anaerobic power compared to 1st and 2nd League players (p

The impact of the practice of physical activities on Burnout and its dimensions remains very little documented among students living in subaerial African countries. The present study was to determine the impact of the level of physical activities on Burnout. In a cross-sectional analytical study, students from the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Kinshasa were recruited by convenience in the period from February 1 to August 1, 2023. The parameters of interest included intensity, frequency, duration of the practice of physical activities and the dimensions of Burnout. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was used to research the influence between the intensity, frequency and duration of physical activity practice on Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization, Lack of Personal Accomplishment and Burnout syndrome. The moderate and high level of physical activity practice significantly reduces Emotional Exhaustion by -14 (30.08±13.04 vs 16.10±10.38), p < 0.001, Depersonalization by -7(12. 45±6.42vs 5.89±5.99), p < 0.001, Burnout of -17 (28.17±10.05 vs 11.00±8.47), p < 0.001 and increases the Personal Accomplishment of students of the Faculty of Medicine of +31(42.00±10.7vs11.00±8.47), p < 0.002. The duration of the practice of physical activities of 30 minutes or more positively influences personalization in 28% (p < 0.001), 75% personal accomplishment (p < 0.003) and 63% burnout (p < 0.004). Furthermore, the frequency of 3 or more times per week of practicing physical activities positively improves Emotional Exhaustion by 56% (p < 0.001), professional accomplishment by 79% (p < 0.002) and 83% by Burnout (p < 0.001). Young medical school students with Burnout are inactive and sedentary. The latter are associated with a decrease in Personal Accomplishment and an increase in Burnout syndrome. The duration of physical activities of 30 to 45 minutes per day practiced three or more times per week positively improves Emotional Exhaustion, personalization, personal accomplishment and Burnout syndrome. The dissemination of information programs, particularly to medical students, seems urgent.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between respiratory functions and body compositions of elite athletes in alpine disciplines and cross-country skiing through their comparison. The study included 32 male athletes (age: 18.3±2 year, height: 172.1±6.05 cm, body weight: 65.73±10.79 kg, and body mass index (BMI): 22.91±2.80 kg/m2) within the scope of alpine disciplines and cross-country skiing. The heights of the athletes were measured with a stadiometer (Holtain, UK) with an accuracy of ±1mm. The weights of the athletes and BMI values were measured using a Tanita brand (BC, 418 Tanita, Japan) body composition analyzer with a precision of 100 grams. The respiratory function and respiratory muscle strength of the athletes were evaluated using a digital spirometer (Pony FX Cosmed, Italy). Pearson's correlation analysis was used to determine the relationships between respiratory functions and anthropometric structures of the groups. The results indicated that cross-country skiing athletes had higher averages in FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF, MIP, MVV, and MEP parameters compared to alpine discipline athletes, with only the MIP value being higher in alpine discipline athletes. The results revealed positive correlations between age and FVC (0.563), FEV1 (0.521), PEF (0.679), and MVV (0.511) in cross-country skiing athletes. Negative correlations were found between body weight and FEV1/FVC (r=0.578), FEV1/FVC (r=0.545), height and MVV (r=0.541), and body mass index and FEV1/FVC (r=0.541), FEV1/FVC (r=0.676) in cross-country skiing and alpine discipline athletes, respectively (p0.05). In order to achieve maximum performance, it is very important to identify and keep under control the factors affecting respiratory functions. The current study demonstrated that the characteristics of the sport have an impact on physiological changes in the respiratory system and also affect body compositions and respiratory functions.

Yoga, a practice originating in India thousands of years ago, has gained immense popularity today and its effects are under scrutiny. Numerous studies demonstrate the positive impact of various types of yoga on human physiology. Specifically, research highlights the ability of yoga to mitigate stress and anxiety, as well as increase serotonin and dopamine hormones, facilitating healthy coping mechanisms in modern living. For a healthy lifestyle, yoga can be an important addition to a nutritious diet. While numerous studies have reported on the positive effects of yoga, its complete impact has yet to be fully understood. It may be recommended that the studies planned to be addressed in the future on the subject should be carried out for a specific health problem, should have a methodologically good and high quality structure and the sample size should be kept large. This review found that yoga has significant positive effects on anxiety and depression. It also increases hormones such as serotonin and dopamine in the body, which can lead to a more positive outlook. However, the review found statistically insignificant decreases in fasting blood glucose levels, postprandial blood glucose levels, and HbA1c. Additionally, yoga was found to significantly improve quality of life.

Numerous studies demonstrate the positive impact of various types of yoga on human physiology. Specifically, research highlights the ability of yoga to mitigate stress and anxiety, as well as increase serotonin and dopamine hormones, facilitating healthy coping mechanisms in modern living. For a healthy lifestyle, yoga can be an important addition to a nutritious diet. While numerous studies have reported on the positive effects of yoga, its complete impact has yet to be fully understood. It may be recommended that the studies planned to be addressed in the future on the subject should be carried out for a specific health problem, should have a methodologically good and high quality structure and the sample size should be kept large. This review found that yoga has significant positive effects on anxiety and depression. It also increases hormones such as serotonin and dopamine in the body, which can lead to a more positive outlook. However, the review found statistically insignificant decreases in fasting blood glucose levels, postprandial blood glucose levels, and HbA1c. Additionally, yoga was found to significantly improve quality of life.","PeriodicalId":510541,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Kinesiology","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139795330","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}
