Research paper thumbnail of КОНЦЕНТРАЦИЈА ЛАКТАТА У КРВИ ТОКОМ КОШАРКАШКЕ УТАКМИЦЕ

Циљ систематског прегледа актуелне литературе био је да се испита концентрација лактата током кошаркашке утакмице, као и да се утврди концентрација лактата према играчкој позицији, нивоу игре, географској локацији и полу током утакмице. Поређења времена у одвојеним студијама откривају да је концентрација лактата била значајно нижа у другој половини него у првој. Професионални играчи постижу веће концентрације лактата у поређењу са полупрофесионалним играчима. Поред тога, интерни фактори и фактори подударања могу допринети уоченим варијацијама играча, укључујући интензитет игре пре узимања узорка крви, као и физиолошку припрему испитиваног узорка играча. Концентрација лактата у крви већа је код аустралијских кошаркаша него код Тунишана, шпанских и британских кошаркаша. Даља истраживања би требало да квантификују концентрацију лактата и откуцаје срца у односу на активно и укупно време играња, ш...

A stabilometric platform was used to assess their static balance by recording the mean center of pressure velocity (CoPVm) during bipedal standing with eyes open (OE) and closed (CE) on firm and foam surfaces under two auditory conditions (no music, listening to Mozart's Jupiter). The timed up and go test (TUGT) was used to assess their dynamic balance.Results Our results showed that listening to Mozart’s Jupiter significantly decreased the CoPVm values in different sensory manipulation conditions [firm surface/ EO: (p < 0.01; 95% CI: 0.27 to 2.22); firm surface/ EC: (p < 0.05; 95% CI: 0.02 to 1.97); foam surface/ EC: (p < 0.001; 95% CI: 0.48 to 2.44)], excep...

The aim of the systematic review of the current literature was to examine the concentration of lactate during a basketball game, as well as to determine the concentration of lactate according to player position, level of play, geographical location and gender during the game. Time comparisons in separate studies revealed that lactate concentration was significantly lower in the second half than in the first. Professional players achieve higher lactate concentrations compared to semi-professional players. In addition, intrinsic and matching factors may contribute to the observed player variation, including the intensity of play prior to blood sampling, as well as the physiological preparation of the player's test sample. Blood lactate concentration is higher in Australian basketball players than in Tunisians, Spanish and British basketball players. Furt...

Research paper thumbnail of The Modifications of Haemoglobin, Erythropoietin Values and Running Performance While Training at Mountain vs. Hilltop vs. Seaside

An alternative, although less explored, that has the potential to positively influence performance while avoiding some of the negative physiological consequences of hypoxia is sand training. Ten endurance-trained athletes (age: 20.8 ± 1.4, body mass: 57.7 ± 8.2 kg, stature: 176 ± 6 cm; 5000 m 14:55.00 ± 0:30 min) performed three 21-day training camps at different locations: at a high altitude (HIGH), at the sea-level (CTRL), at the sea-level on the sand (SAND). Differences in erythropoietin (EPO) and haemoglobin (Hb) concentration, body weight, VO2max and maximal aerobic velocity (VMA) before and after each training cycle were compared. Data analysis has indicated that training during HIGH elicited a greater increase in VO2max (2.4 ± 0.2%; p = 0.005 and 1.0 ± 0.2%; p < 0.001) and VMA (2.4 ± 0.2%, p < 0.001 and 1.2 ± 0.2%; p = 0.001) compared with CTR...
