Many well known resistance training authors and coaches believe that it is necessary to know an individual’s actual 1RM or predicted 1RM for each specific exercise. They claim that the accuracy of prescribing effective resistance training protocols is dependent on this information. This systematic review challenges that widely held belief and presents compelling evidence to the contrary. There is a direct relationship within individuals between muscular strength and performing a maximal number of repetitions with a submaximal resistance. This relationship does not change with training and is more relevant to progressive strength gains than knowing the actual or predicted 1RM, which appears irrelevant.

The aim of the study was the attempt to determine the specifics of injuries suffered by people who do snowboarding recreationally. On account of the low number of cases one should determine the work as descriptive study. Methods. The research material was a group of 40 persons aged 18-30 practicing snowboarding. The research tool was a questionnaire prepared by the research authors. Results and Conclusions. The most frequent type of injury suffered by the questioned snowboarders was contusion (67,5%) and dislocation (50%) of joints. Injuries concerned the upper limb mainly (injures of the wrist/palm 50% of all) and the basic form of physical therapy applied in the examined group was criotherapy.

Introduction and aim of the study: Low body fat is related to race performance in endurance athletes. We investigated whether characteristics of anthropometry, training or previous performance were related to race time in recreational female Ironman triathletes. Methods: In 31 female Ironman triathletes, with (mean and SD) 36.8 (6.2) years, 60.8 (6.2) kg body mass, 1.66 (0.06) m body height and a body mass index of 21.6 (1.3) kg/m2, anthropometric characteristics, such as body mass, body height, body mass index, circumferences and length of limbs, skin-fold thicknesses and body fat percentage, and characteristics of training, such as volume and intensity in all sub disciplines, were related to total race time including split times using correlations analysis. Also, personal best times in marathon running, Olympic and Ironman triathlons were related to race time. Results: Neither anthropometric nor training characteristics were related to total race time or split times. Personal best time in a marathon (r=0.51), personal best time in an Olympic distance triathlon (r=0.70) and personal best time in an Ironman triathlon (r=0.70) were significantly and positively related to total race time. Personal best time in an Olympic distance was significantly and positively related to personal best time in an Ironman triathlon (r=0.63). Conclusion: We must assume that previous performance is of higher importance than anthropometric or training characteristics for a successful race outcome in recreational female Ironman triathletes.
