Background and Study Aim. In the early years when sports footwear became compulsory, the importance of shoe design was not considered in terms of athletes’ health. Since the early years of wrestling shoe use, these gears have been manufactured according to the rules of competition, and modifications have been very limited. In this regard, this study aims to determine the effect of existing wrestling shoes on foot deformation. Material and Methods. The study was carried out with the participation of 108 young male athletes who had the same training on the same ground for three years in the Wrestling Training Center. The athletes were divided into two groups, an experimental and a control group. While the control group wore wrestling shoes produced by widely used brands, the experimental group wore newly designed wrestling shoes. Foot arch values and images of both groups were determined using a podoscope device at the beginning and end of the study. The evaluations were made according to the Staheli arch index. Results. The results of the statistical analysis revealed that differences were found in the footprint measurement values of the control group. It was determined that this difference in the footprints was greater among the freestyle wrestlers. The decrease in the averages between the first and second measurement values of the group using the newly designed wrestling shoes was found to be highly positive and in a linear direction. Also, it was determined that the pain score values of the control group were higher than the scores of the experimental group after training. Conclusions. The results revealed that there were deformations in the feet of the control group wrestlers wearing available wrestling shoes. It was observed that freestyle wrestling athletes had more deformation than Greco-Roman style wrestlers, and leg pains were more prevalent after training and competitions. Based on these results, it was concluded that the design of wrestling shoes produced with today's technology needs to be redesigned.

Background and Study Aim. Various experimental programs for the development of motor skills are present in sports activities. Explosive strength can be defined as the ability to produce maximum force as soon as possible, and it represents an essential factor in activities where it is necessary to increase the acceleration of the body mass, the mass of specific body parts, or of an external object. The aim of study – to determine the effects of an experimental program on the explosive strength of lower limbs in male adolescents. Material and Methods. One hundred and one male adolescent (aged 19 years ± 6 months; body height 181.43 ± 7.42 cm; body mass 80.08 ± 10.07 kg) were recruited and randomly divided into two groups: experimental group (E; N=48) and control group (K; N=48). The E group performed the experimental program which lasted fifteen weeks and consisted of three 60-min training sessions per week. All participants were tested on Squat Jump (SJ), Countermovement Jump (CMJ), Countermovement Jump with arms (CMJa) and Continuous Jump with Straight Legs (CJSL). The four tests were performed using a Kistler force platform to measure Quatro Jump Bosco Protocol Version 1.0.9.2 and gave us data about the jump height, number of jumps for 15s, average power jump and peak power jump. The multivariate analysis covariance (MANCOVA) and follow up analysis covariance (ANCOVA) were used to analyze the data. Results. The results of MANCOVA showed statistically significant differences (p ≤ 0.001) between the E and K groups in all systems of variable lower limb explosive strength in male adolescents. In addition, results of ANCOVA showed statistically significant differences (p ≤ 0.001) in SJ, CMJ, CMJa and CJSL in favor of the E group compared to the K one. Conclusions. The results of this research show that a fifteen-week experimental program can lead to significant improvements in lower limb explosive strength in male adolescents.

Background and Study Purpose. One of the main aspects of improving the special training of athletes in hand-to-hand combat is increasing functional reserves in conditions of power loads. Study Purpose - to study the peculiarities of adaptive body changes and the level of special training in female athletes of hand-to-hand combat using power fitness programs with different structure, parameters, and means. Material and Methods. We examined 36 female athletes (18-20 years old) who had been engaged in hand-to-hand combat for the last 4 years. We divided these women into two groups,18 people in each group. Groups used completely different power fitness training programs. We used methods of testing special training (the number of accurate kicks on the mannequin for 30 s) and laboratory monitoring of blood biochemical parameters (cortisol and LDH) before and after training load during 3 months. Group A used the standard power fitness training program for women of this age (exercises on simulators). Group B used well-known exercises with their own body weight with a complete change of kinematic and dynamic characteristics of the technique during 3 months of training. Results. The obtained results showed that indicators of special training positively changed by 10.4% (p <0.05) in group B athletes. At the same time, the studied indicator increased by 2.2% compared to initial level in group A athletes. At the end of the study, we observed an increase in cortisol level in the blood serum of group B athletes in response to physical stimuli. This was almost 10 times lower than the results recorded in group A. The results of monitoring LDH activity in the blood serum showed that its level increased by 19.5% (p <0.05) during the entire study period only in group B athletes. The controlled indicator remained almost unchanged in group A. The dynamics of the studied steroid hormone and enzyme in the blood serum in group B indicated an increase in the level of organism resistance to training loads under specified conditions of muscular activity and their pronounced adaptive changes. Conclusions. Determining the most effective power fitness training program for special training of female athletes in hand-to-hand combat, will help to increase their adaptive body reserves and their level of fitness. For this using different in structure and parameters training load.

Background and Study Aim. Low-back pain (LBP) has increasingly been the leading cause affecting work performance, daily activities, and rising the cost of healthcare services. Currently, sitting time increases and walking activity lessens among people. The purpose of this study - identify the effect of Core Stabilization Exercise (CSE) with walking on pain perception and LBP disability among people who suffered from non-specific low-back pain (NSLBP). Material and Methods. In this study, a total of 36 active people (18-42 years old) with BMI≥24.9 kg.m-2 voluntarily participated and were divided randomly into three groups. Intervention groups included CSE group (CSEG; n=12), CSE with walking (CSEWG; n=12), and control group (CG; n=12). The intervention groups carried out the exercise programs (CSE with and without 30 minutes of walking), three times a week for six weeks. In this study, the pain perception was assessed via the Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) and LBP disability was measured by using a modified Oswestry Disability (ODI) questionnaire. Results. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) displayed significant effectiveness of CSEG and CSEWG on pain perception as the interaction between time and group [f (2, 33) = 4.95, p=0.032]. The pain perception significantly decreased in CSEG (p=0.021) and CSEWG (p=0.003) after six weeks of the intervention programs compare to CG. The results also showed a significant effect on LBP disability for the interaction between time and group after six weeks of both intervention programs (f (2, 33) =6.52, p=0.015). Disability function (ODI score) significantly improved in CSEG (p=0.031) and CSEWG (p=0.007). Even though the results revealed no significant difference between CSEG and CSEWG, and both groups proved to reduce pain perception and LBP disability, the disability index improvement was greatest in CSEWG. Conclusions. In conclusion, CSE with 30 minutes of walking, as an intervention program, has shown greater improvement with a larger effect size in pain perception and LBP disability among people who suffered from NSLBP.

Background and Study Aim. The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in Physical Education (PE) brings the science of sports to life by combining physical and mental activity. It also helps students focus better on practical and theoretical work. The purpose of this study was to investigate the perceived barriers to adopting ICTs in PE lessons among high school teachers in Malaysia. Material and Methods. A total of 112 Physical Education teachers were selected by stratified random sampling to answer an online questionnaire. Cluster analysis was then conducted to classify PE teachers’ profiles according to the frequency scores of experiencing challenges in using ICT tools in PE teaching and learning. Discriminant analyses were performed to determine the significant barriers related to technology that differentiate these clusters. Results. In conclusion, Cluster analysis identified three well-defined profiles: cluster 1 (excellent degrees in applying ICT to their teaching practices) consists of 44 teachers; cluster 2 (moderate degrees in applying ICT to their teaching practices) consist of 41 teachers; cluster 3 (poor degrees in applying ICT to their teaching practices) consist of 27 teachers. Results revealed seven out of twelve technology-related barriers were significant among these clusters. They are the insufficient number of computers (p<0.001), insufficient number of internet‐connected computers (p<0.001), insufficient pedagogical support for teachers (p<0.001), lack of content in the national language (p<0.001), pressure to prepare students for exams and tests (p<0.001), no or unclear benefit to using ICT for teaching (p<0.001) and perception of using ICT in teaching and learning not being a goal in their school (p<0.001). Conclusions. Awareness of these barriers has implications for physical education, curriculum design, teacher training, and youth participation in the school environment. The positive opinions and attitudes of PE teachers toward ICTs as educational tools could pave the way for improving their digital literacy. Thus increase their rate of use of these tools if they are provided with the appropriate technical resources and training.

Background and Study Aim. There are studies examining the effects of exercise programs on body and blood parameters in sedentary individuals, but there are few studies examining the effects of resistance and cardio exercises in combination. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of step-aerobic, cardio and resistance training on body composition and blood parameters in sedentary women for 12 weeks. Material and Methods. Step- Aerobic, Cardio and Resistance exercises were applied to the volunteers participating in the study for 12 weeks, 3 days a week for 1 hour each. Body weight, body mass index, body fat percentage and body muscle percentage values were determined from body composition measurements before and after the application. Glucose, Vitamin D3, Triglyceride, Cholesterol, High-density lipoprotein and Low-density values were measured from blood parameters. There is no exercise planning was done in the control group. Results. After the exercise program, a significant decrease (p<0.05) in body weight, body mass index, body fat ratio, Glucose, Vitamin D3, Triglyceride, Cholesterol and Low-density values and a significant increase (p<0.05) in High-density lipoprotein and values were determined in the study group. In the control group, no significant change was observed in both body composition and blood parameters (p>0.05). Conclusions. In the this study, it was found resistance, cardio and step-aerobic exercise programs had a positive effect on body composition and blood parameters in sedentary women. In the control group, there is no positive data for the end of the this study and there is no significant change not only body parametres bu also blood measurement in the control group.

Background and Study Aim. Combat sports are among the most popular sports nowadays. Scientific support of combat sports is one of the urgent tasks of modern sports science. The purpose of this article is an analytical analysis of studies devoted to kickboxing. Material and methods. The bibliometric database Web of Science Core Collection (WoS) is analyzed. 194 articles that met the search criteria were selected for the primary analysis. We used bibliometric methods for processing the information received in the context of kickboxing. The VOSviewer 1.6.18 software was used: keyword analysis method and direct citation analysis with the construction of bibliometric maps, visualization of cluster density, and citation weights. Results. The constructed bibliometric maps made it possible to identify the leading thematic areas of research, the most popular areas of research in this area. They can be divided into sports and rehabilitation and recreational areas. In a sports context, these include the performance of technical and tactical elements of kickboxing, the study of the physiological characteristics of combat sports athletes; assessment of the main physical qualities and analysis of the adaptive potential of athletes; the study of biochemical and features of homeostasis, the state of the cardiorespiratory system; highlighting factors important for winning competitions. In the rehabilitation context, kickboxing is used to optimize the functional state, recover from injuries, and improve the quality of life of patients with chronic diseases. The use of the VOSviewer software, version 1.6.18, made it possible to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the problem, to determine the priority scientific directions in this area. In sports, this is an analysis of the technical and tactical indicators of athletes, the time spent on their implementation, the study of the metabolic characteristics of combat sports athletes, and the assessment of their physical qualities. Conclusions. The conducted bibliometric analysis of publications on the problem of kickboxing confirms the relevance of this area of sports science. There is a lack of research on a comprehensive study of success, monitoring the state of kickboxing athletes. These directions should be recognized as the most relevant in this area.

Background and Study Purpose. Body stability is an important factor in the manifestation of human motor skills. The purpose of the research is to evaluate the efficiency of balance exercises, applied for 28 weeks, with a frequency of one activity / week, on a group of undergraduate students of the “Dunărea de Jos” University of Galați. Material and Methods. 195 subjects participated (99 males and 96 females), divided for analysis into 3 groups (underweight, N = 21, age = 20.16 ± .38, BMI = 17.46 ± .20); (normal weight, N = 111, age = 20.30 ± .21, BMI = 21.70 ± .17); (overweight / obese, N = 63, age = 19.90 ± .18, BMI = 30.69 ± .61). The tests were applied at 3 distinct times: initial T1 at the beginning of the academic year, intermediate T2 towards the end of semester 1 and final T3 at the end of semester 2. 3 static balance assessment tests were used (One leg standing test with closed eyes, Stork test and Flamingo test), respectively 4 tests to evaluate the dynamic balance (Bass test, Functional reach test, Walk and turn field sobriety test and Fukuda test). Results. ANOVA with repeated measurements and the differences between the test moments highlight in most cases values of F associated with significant thresholds (p <0.05), so there is an improvement in results for all 3 groups. The differences between T1 and T2 tests are larger than those between T2 and T3, so for almost all tests the progress is higher in the first semester, and in semester 2 there is a slight reduction, as a result of adapting to the proposed exercises. Even if they progress significantly, the group of overweight people has obviously weaker average results than normal weight and underweight people, signaling numerous individual cases that have problems in maintaining static balance and commit errors in dynamic balance tests. The better performances of the underweight in 3 cases (One leg standing test, Flamingo test Fukuda test and Walk and turn field sobriety test) cannot be generalized due to their small number compared to the other 2 groups, and this aspect can be considered as a new direction of investigation. Conclusions. There are premises for a favorable evolution of the balance indices for the group tested in this age group, but it must be taken into account that the low initial fitness level (generated by the lack of concerns for a lifestyle based on physical activities) is a factor that facilitated these less spectacular advances, but still statistically significant.
背景和研究目的。身体稳定性是人类运动技能表现的重要因素。本研究的目的是评估平衡练习的效率,应用了28周,频率为一次活动/周,一组来自Galați的“dun rea de Jos”大学的本科生。材料与方法:195例受试者(男99例,女96例),分为体重过轻组(N = 21,年龄= 20.16±0.38,BMI = 17.46±0.20)进行分析;(体重正常,N = 111,年龄20.30±0.21,BMI = 21.70±0.17);(超重/肥胖,N = 63,年龄= 19.90±0.18,BMI = 30.69±0.61)。测试在三个不同的时间进行:学年开始时的初始T1,第一学期结束时的中级T2和第二学期结束时的最终T3。采用静平衡评价试验3项(单腿闭眼站立试验、鹳试验和火烈鸟试验),动态平衡评价试验4项(Bass试验、功能到达试验、行走和转弯现场清醒试验和福田试验)。结果。重复测量的方差分析和检验矩之间的差异在大多数情况下突出F值与显著阈值相关(p <0.05),因此所有3组的结果都有所改善。T1和T2测试之间的差异大于T2和T3之间的差异,因此几乎所有测试的进度都在第一学期较高,而在第二学期略有下降,这是由于适应了建议的练习。即使他们取得了显著的进步,超重人群的平均结果也明显弱于正常体重和体重不足的人,这表明有许多个体在保持静态平衡方面存在问题,并在动态平衡测试中出现错误。体重过轻者在单腿站立试验、火烈鸟试验、福田试验和行走转身现场清醒试验中表现较好,但与其他2组相比数量较少,不能概括,这方面可以考虑作为一个新的研究方向。结论。对于这个年龄段的测试人群来说,平衡指数的有利演变是有前提的,但必须考虑到,较低的初始健康水平(由于缺乏对基于体育活动的生活方式的关注)是促进这些不那么引人注目的进步的一个因素,但在统计上仍然是显著的。

Background and Study Aim. A group of psychological traits that are essential to achieving peak performance are referred to collectively as mental toughness. One of the most significant psychological traits linked to sports success, according to athletes, coaches, and sport psychologists, is mental toughness. This study aims to identify the effects of deep breathing on the mental toughness of athletes in Puchong Fuerza Football Club who played in M3 Football League, the Malaysia's third-tier football league. Material and Methods. The research was conducted experimentally with two sessions which include pre-test and post-test. Mental Toughness Questionnaire 48 (MTQ48) and deep breathing techniques were used in this research. Data findings were analyzed to answer the research questions and null hypothesis. Hypothesis testing was used, and inferential statistics analyzed the data. Paired sample t-test was used to identify the effects of deep breathing techniques on mental toughness scores in pre-test and post-test. Results. The analysis results showed that data on mental toughness was negative. It proved by the mean score difference of the pre-test and post-test, in which there were increments of mental toughness score after applying deep breathing technique. Meanwhile, there was a significant difference in mean scores between players toward their mental toughness based on pre-test and post-test results. Conclusions. Therefore, the deep breathing technique has relations with performance and psychological outcomes and can be use as a pre-match mental preparation. It is suggested that coaches and athletes may include the deep breathing technique in training program. The players need to undergo psychological skill training such as deep breathing technique to improve their mental toughness and to ensure that anxiety is at an optimal level in order to achieve excellent performance in competitions.
