The intention of this investigation was to decide the most significant exercise intervention in enhancing maximum voluntary ventilation in young male soccer players. Sixty non-smoking young male soccer players with the mean age of 14.18 (0.79) years, were randomly assigned to four groups (Group A, B, C, D) of 20 players in each group. Maximum voluntary ventilation was measured at baseline using digital pony FX micro spirometer. The Group A athletes were instructed to do diaphragmatic breathing exercise with conventional sports training. Group B athletes received pelvic floor muscle exercise with conventional sports training. Group C athletes received synchronized diaphragmatic breathing with pelvic floor contraction with conventional sports training and Group D (Control group) players received conventional sports training alone. The training protocol was designed for 15 minutes duration 5 times per week for 8 weeks, along with their 60 minutes conventional sports training. Mid and post intervention measurements were carried out at the fourth week and the eighth week with identical baseline assessment protocol. The repeated measures of ANOVA revealed that, marked improvement in maximum voluntary ventilation was evident amongst all of intervention groups except control group however post hoc analyses implicated that synchronized diaphragmatic breathing with pelvic floor contraction was beneficial in enhancing maximum voluntary ventilation than the pelvic floor exercise, diaphragmatic breathing exercise and conventional sports training (P<.05). Therefore, synchronized diaphragmatic breathing with pelvic floor contraction training should be considered as a part of sports training to improve maximum voluntary ventilation.

The aim of this study was to find out the most significant exercise training in improving lower limb power in young male football players. Sixty non-smoking young male football players with the mean age of 14.18 (0.79) years, were randomly allotted to four groups (Group A, B, C, D) of 15 players in each group. Lower limb power was assessed at baseline by vertical jump test. The Group A athletes were instructed to perform diaphragmatic breathing exercise with conventional sports training. Group B athletes instructed to do pelvic floor muscle exercise with conventional sports training. Group C athletes advised to do synchronized diaphragmatic breathing with pelvic floor contraction with conventional sports training and Group D (Control group) players received conventional sports training alone. The training regimen was scheduled for 15-minute length 5 times per week for 8 weeks, along with their 60-minute conventional sports training. Mid and post intervention assessment were carried out at the fourth week and the eighth week with similar baseline assessment regimen. The repeated measures of ANOVA exposed that, noticeable development in lower limb power was obvious amongst all of intervention groups, however post hoc analyses implicated that synchronized diaphragmatic breathing with pelvic floor contraction was advantageous in enhancing lower limb power than the pelvic floor exercise, diaphragmatic breathing exercise and conventional sports training (P<.05). Hence, synchronized diaphragmatic breathing with pelvic floor contraction training should be considered as a part of sports training to improve lower limb power.

“…It can be used to compress a high dimensional dataset into a lower dimensional dataset. Recent study also revealed PCA is particularly useful when data on a number of useful variables has been gathered, and it is plausible that there is some redundancy in those variables [25][26][27][28][29]. Table 1 shows the descriptive statistics of anthropometric measurement and physical fitness among 600 male participants.…”

This study attempts to determine youth profile in sports talent identification program. Data of anthropometric and physical fitness included power, agility, speeds, flexibility, strength and endurance were obtained from 600 participants in a sports talent identification program aged 13-15 years. Data analyses were carried out using multivariate analysis of principal component analysis (PCA). PCA revealed three principal components with 71.5% total variation for this studied group. The first component consists of high factor loading in speed variables (10 meter run, 20 meter run, 40 meter run) and endurance (predicted VO₂ max). The second component was constituted by anthropometric variables (weight, height, sitting height and armspan). While third component contains flexibility variable (sit and reach). These selected variables of anthropometric and fitness are, therefore, revealed as the essential attributes those must be prioritized for a talent scouting in sports. Present results had demonstrated youth profile that capable of providing an information that could help coaches in decision making during athlete selection in sports talent identification.
