Article Synopsis
  • Runners who don't allow enough recovery time after training may be at a higher risk for injuries due to fatigue and altered movement patterns.
  • A study looked at how different running intensities affect lower-limb joint movements and coordination during a single-leg squat in 30 healthy runners.
  • Immediate and longer-term changes showed that coordination patterns became less adaptive (more regular) after moderate and high-intensity runs, but traditional kinematic analysis did not effectively capture these changes.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess how repeated cold-water immersion (CWI) affects performance and perceptions in adolescent swimmers during a training week.
  • Twenty competitive swimmers participated in a randomized crossover study where they experienced three interventions: CWI, thermoneutral water immersion (placebo), and passive recovery, with a focus on swim performance, flexibility, power, and perceived well-being.
  • Results showed improvements in swim performance over time for all interventions, but no significant differences in pain or tiredness among them, with a preference for CWI and thermoneutral immersion expressed by the athletes.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of repeated massage adjusted for swimmers' training on the perceptive, functional, and performance outcomes of a sprint. We also investigated the effects of a single short massage on swimmers' self-reported perceptions after resistance training. This cross-over randomized controlled trial with concealed allocation, assessor blinding, and intention-to-treat analysis included 19 male and female competitive swimmers between 12 and 20 years old.
