Telic-Paratelic Dominance and Heart Rate Variability in Athletes Engaged in Power and Endurance Training.

The current study aimed to evaluate the telic-paratelic tendency and heart rate variability in athlete participants from different sports activities. We assigned 117 healthy participants ( age = 20, = 3 years) into three groups according to their training activity: power-trained (PT; n=43), endurance-trained (ET; n=36), and healthy untrained individuals (n=38). We assessed their telic-paratelic tendencies with the validated Telic Dominance Scale and their autonomic nervous system activity with heart rate variability (HRV) analyses.

Does dynamic balance affect cube mental rotation task in badminton vs. volleyball female players?

Background: Changing from a static to a dynamic balance condition could affect the performance of a cognitive task such as mental rotation. Thus, the main goal of this study is to investigate aspects of visual-spatial cognition between two non-contact sports (i.e.

Effect of dynamic balance on human mental rotation task in female badminton vs. volleyball players.

Background: The present study aims to compare the mental rotation performance between two non-contact sports (i.e., badminton and volleyball) in different upright conditions (i.

Effects of combined resistance and aerobic training program on myoelectric activity of Vastus Lateralis in patients with breast cancer during adjuvant chemotherapy period.

Objective: Chemotherapy and/or radiation are normally the predominant therapies administered to cancer patients. Commonly, patients express complaints of fatigue during adjuvant treatment. Furthermore, regular practice of physical exercise during adjuvant treatment seems to have positive effects.
