title: Acute effect of intra-set static stretching on antagonists versus passive interval on the performance of maximum repetitions of agonists in leg extension machine

description: Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the acute effect of intra-set antagonist static stretching (hamstrings) on the performance of maximum repetitions of knee extensors adopting muscle endurance training zone. The sample consisted of 15 healthy male volunteers with experience in strength training (23.7 ± 4.3 years, 81.9 ± 15.0 kg, 1.8 ± 0.1 m). Two experimental protocols were conducted: protocol without static stretching (PT) and antagonist stretching protocol (PAA) in the knee extension exercise. The results showed that there was no difference between protocols or interactions between protocols and sets in maximum repetitions performance (PT, set1 – 21.3 ± 3.4; set2 – 16.1 ± 1.9; set3 – 13.5 ± 1.3 / PAA, set1 – 21.0 ± 2.0; set2 – 16.7 ± 2.6; set3 – 13.7 ± 2.2) (p ≤ 0.05) (p ≤ 0.05). Therefore, antagonist static stretching does not influence performance of maximum repetitions of knee extensors over multiple sets focused on muscle endurance.

title: VAMOS program: instruments for measuring physical activity, feeding and anthropometry

description: Abstract The aim of this study was to indicate instruments to measure the effectiveness of the Active Life Improving Health Program - VAMOS, in physical activity (PA), feeding and anthropometry. Fifty-six participants were selected to act as analysts in the different stages of the work: 1) systematic review, 2) consensus groups, 3) analysis of selected instruments, 4) focus group. Physical activity, feeding and anthropometry measures, considering their applicability, viability and low cost, were selected to be applied in the VAMOS program in Basic Health Units (UBS). Step 1: Systematic literature review selected the instruments most used to evaluate PA, feeding and anthropometry, organizing a matrix based on established criteria. Step 2: consensus groups performed the choice of the main instruments in the matrix, excluding the two less viable. Step 3: Experts from the five regions of Brazil selected the main instruments included in the matrix, excluding the two least viable ones. Step 4: The focus group established the instruments that were most feasible for use in UBS. The instruments selected to verify effectiveness in physical activity were IPAQ short-version and pedometer for feeding the VIGITEL questionnaire, for anthropometric variables body mass, height, waist circumference and body mass index. The technical and scientific process carried out allows inferring that the VAMOS program should use the above mentioned instruments to measure effectiveness within criteria of applicability, viability and low-cost.

title: Differences between training and game loads in young basketball players

description: Abstract The same training stimulus can provide different physiological adaptations for athletes of the same team.The aim of this study was to compare training and game loads in young male basketball players. Data were obtained from 4 training sessions and one game session usingPolar Team Pro equipment. Physiological data (HR) were used to monitor internal responses through Edwards’TRIMP,and data on distance traveled by the player on the court (External Training Load).To observe differences between eTRIMP,HR max and distance traveled,the T-Test was used for paired samples. The mean internal training load, according to Edwards’TRIMP, for the four training sessions was 132 ± 69. Mean HR max and distance traveled values were 143 ± 67 and 2.273 ± 1170, respectively. Regarding game load, Edwards’TRIMP,maximum HR and distance traveled were 108 ± 33, 199 ± 4 and 2.240 ± 617, respectively. No statistically significant differences were found between the mean values of training sessions compared to the game session in relation to the Edwards’ TRIMP measures and distance traveled, but HR max was significantly higher during the game compared to training. It was concluded that the loads applied during training are similar to those applied in the game.

title: Handgrip strength accuracy as discriminator of functional independence in centenarian women

description: Abstract The aim of this study was to verify and compare handgrip strength (HS) with activities of the daily living (ADL) and to identify the cutoff point of HGS in the prediction of independence in ADL of centenarians. Twenty-four centenarians with mean age of 101.67 ± 2.80 years participated in the study. Subjects were asked about marital status, schooling (years), diseases, hearing difficulties and activities of the daily living (Katz scale), to classify functional independence. Handgrip strength of the right hand (HSR) and left hand (HSL) (mean of the three measures of each hand) was evaluated by means of manual dynamometer. The U Mann Whitney test was applied to compare HSR and HSL with functions of ADL. To identify the cutoff point (sensitivity and specificity) of the right and left HGS of centenarians in the prediction of independence in functions of ADL, the Received Operating Characteristic (ROC) Curves were used. The following cutoff points were used: 11 Kgf for HSR (sensitivity = 66.7%, specificity = 100%, ROC curve = 0.778) and 9 Kgf for HSL (sensitivity = 66.7%, specificity = 77.8%, curve ROC = 0.730) to predict independence in performing the "bathing" function; 11 Kgf for HSR for the "continence" function (sensitivity = 83.3%, specificity = 66.7%, ROC curve = 0.712); and 9 Kgf for HSL for "transfer" function (sensitivity = 80%, specificity = 71.4%, ROC curve = 0.786). For these functions, sensitivity and specificity presented values greater than 66%. On all these functions, sensitivity showed values higher than 46% and specificity 77%. Minimum HSR is required to perform functions of ADL independently. The best HSR cutoff point to predict independence of subjects differs according to functions of activities of the daily living and hand evaluated.

title: Relationship of fatigue with depressive symptoms and level of physical activity in women with breast cancer diagnosis

description: Abstract Breast cancer is the most frequent in women, resulting in fatigue and depressive symptoms as consequence of treatment, but physical activity can help in this process. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between fatigue, depressive symptoms and practice of physical activity of women with breast cancer during treatment or after cancer treatment. This is a cross-sectional study with 179 women (56.89 ± 9.4 years) from the Oncology Research Center - CEPON, using questionnaire on general and clinical information, fatigue (Piper Fatigue Scale) depressive symptoms (Beck Depression Inventory) and physical activity (IPAQ - short version). Women with moderate to severe fatigue underwent physiotherapy (p = 0.001) and women with no fatigue had minimum depressive symptoms (p ?0.001). Level of physical activity was not associated with fatigue, with most women being insufficiently active and women with mild fatigue had longer walking time than those without fatigue (p = 0.049). Women with depressive symptoms were almost three times more likely of having mild to severe fatigue and those who underwent physiotherapy were twice as likely of having mild to severe fatigue. Women with fatigue had greater presence of depressive symptoms. Professionals working in the field of oncology should recommend the practice of physical activity in order to minimize the side effects of treatment and observe depressive symptoms and fatigue in these women.

title: Effect of eccentric overload through isoinertial technology in basketball players

description: Abstract The present study investigated the effect of eccentric overload on professional basketball players. Participants were 8 players aged 18-25 years who play in a Leb Oro League team. There was an 8 week training cycle with 1 weekly session of half squats. The control group performed training following a traditional methodology –using free weights– whereas the experimental group used inertial technology, that is, the ProSquat machine from Proinertial®. Both vertical jump and 30-meter sprint were assessed before and after intervention. The following conclusions were reached: a) strength training with vertical vector improves the 30-meter sprint test and also the vertical jump; b) training program that affects the eccentric overload of the movement results in more improvements than traditional training with the same duration; c) training in the vertical vector also has an impact on the way force is manifested in the horizontal vector, showing improvements in the 30-meter sprint.

title: Analysis of the execution of core tactical principles and technical efficiency of primary school futsal players

description: Abstract The study aimed to analyze the core tactical offensive principles and technical efficiency of primary school futsal players. Thirty-three students from a school in Paraná participated in the study. The System of Tactical Assessment in Soccer (FUT-SAT) and the System of Notational Analysis in Small-sided Soccer Games were used for tactical-technical analysis. It was found that the tactical principle “offensive coverage" was most frequently executed by the primary school futsal players (p = 0.01), followed by "width and length" without ball (p &lt; 0.01). Moderate and strong significant correlations were identified between the execution frequency of the core tactical principles “penetration”, “offensive coverage”, “width and length without ball”, “offensive unity” and efficiency in technical skills (from r = 0.43 to r = 0.82, p &lt; 0.05). It is concluded that there is a model of playing near the game center in the presented age group, and that the efficiency of executing technical skills is associated with tactical behavior in game situation.

title: Association of cardiorespiratory fitness, physical activity level, and sedentary behavior with overweight in adolescents

description: Abstract Physical activity and sedentary behavior promote opposite effects on overweight and obesity, in adolescents; however little is known of their combined impact on these outcomes. We aimed to investigate if there were any associations between overweight, and physical activity level, cardiorespiratory fitness, and sedentary behavior, both as isolated variables and in combination. Data of 1,015students from two public and four private schools from the metropolitan area of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil were analyzed. Overweight was classified according to body mass index, whereas physical activity level was assessed by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), cardiorespiratory fitness by a 9-minute test (T9), and sedentary behavior by a self-completed questionnaire, considering the time spent watching television as the main indicator. Associations were examined by binary logistic regression analysis. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) were used to measure the magnitude of the associations. IBM SPSS Statistics version 20 was used for all statistical analyses. Adolescents with poor cardiorespiratory fitness (OR=3.71; 95%CI=1.30-10.6) and a high degree of sedentary behavior (OR=1.73; 95%CI=1.24-2.42) had a bigger chance of being overweight. However the combination of these two categories in the same individual was not statistically associated with overweight. The study indicates that both sedentary behavior and poor performance on cardiorespiratory fitness test are significantly independent associated with overweight in adolescents.
