Anaerobic and Agility Parameters of Salonists in Laboratory and Field Tests

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between mechanical parameters from the Running-based Anaerobic Sprint Test (RAST2×17.5), agility performance from the Illinois Agility Test (IAT) and all-out 30-second tethered running (AO30) in college futsal athletes. It also investigates whether these protocols are capable of identifying differences between sexes. Twenty subjects were evaluated. The IAT was applied on a specific course and performance was considered as the total time (T.T). The RAST2×17.5 consisted of six maximum efforts in a shuttle exercise of 2x17.5 m per bout. The AO30 was conducted under maximal effort on a non-motorized treadmill. Maximum, mean and minimum power were determined for RAST2×17.5 and AO30. Mean power from RAST2×17.5 was inversely and significantly correlated to T.T regardless of sex (male: r=–0.76; p=0.010; female: r=–0.89; p=0.010). A similar association was noticed for maximum power for females (r=–0.94; p=0.001). The AO30 maximum and mean power were significantly correlated with T.T (male: r=–0.67; p=0.031 and r=–0.66; p=0.035, respectively; female: r=–0.64; p=0.046 and r=0.66; p=0.035, respectively). Maximum power from RAST2×17.5 and AO30 were significantly correlated (male: r=0.68; p=0.030; female: r=0.72; p=0.019). Our results reinforce the adoption of field-based tests like RAST2×17.5 and IAT for futsal, since significant relationships among these parameters and AO30 results were obtained. Moreover, these protocols differentiated male and female athletes by mechanical and agility parameters, proving their application under specific field evaluation.

Effects of different inspiratory muscle warm-up loads on mechanical, physiological and muscle oxygenation responses during high-intensity running and recovery

“…Regarding [Lac], the peak values observed here (~ 16 mM) confirmed their significant anaerobic contribution in the 30 s all-out run. These findings corroborate previous studies on exercises characterized by anaerobic contribution 9 , 10 , 65 , 66 . In our study, both HR and [Lac] were not affected by IMW interventions, and 18 min post-effort in passive recovery was not sufficient to make these physiological responses return to baseline values (Fig.…”

“…Considering the significance of the running power in sports and training programs, investigations have been conducted to improve the consistency of this parameter by making it measurable using a tethered system capable of monitoring the force, the velocity, and consequently the running power 2 , 4 – 6 . Furthermore, by applying a high-intensity exercise test, especially with duration around 30 s (i.e., 30 s all-out run), it is possible to assess the peak, mean and minimum power, as well as the fatigue index 7 – 9 , which contribute to training programs applied to athletes and active participants. The 30 s all-out run is characterized by a predominantly anaerobic stimulus that increases the physiological responses, such as heart rate and blood lactate production 7 , 8 , 10 , by locomotor muscles (more active muscles).…”

Dose Response Effect of Photobiomodulation on Hemodynamic Responses and Glucose Levels in Men with Type 2 Diabetes: A Randomized, Crossover, Double-Blind, Sham-Controlled Trial

“…Blood samples were collected via earlobe puncture with a heparinized capillary, and deposited into microtubes (Eppendorf, 1.5 mL) containing 50 µl of 1% sodium fluoride (NaF) [29] to evaluate lactate and glucose levels baseline and after 1 min and 15 min of the PBM (active or sham). The samples were frozen at −20 • C before being homogenized and determined by a glucose and lactate analyzer (YSI-2300-STAT-Plus TM , Yellow Springs Instruments, Yellow Springs, OH, USA) [7,29]. The analyzer was calibrated following the manufacturer's recommended procedures.…”

Systematic review of the anthropometric profile of female futsal players 2010-2020

“…6 In general, the literature in the last 7 years has shown that sporting excellence and the pursuit of high performance have been the fruits of research that has been gradually developing, especially in female athletes. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13] For investigating the physical and anthropometric profile of futsal athletes is relevant, since it can serve to characterize the body dimensions of elite and non-elite athletes. 14 Furthermore, knowledge of body composition and physical condition are essential for the proper development of sports performance.…”
