Jauch, E., Terry, K., Hoogendyk, D., Campbell, S. “…Six 25-yard velocity performance measures and six 25-yard technique performance measures were taken with inertial measurement units (IMUs). …”

Nimmo, B, Torres, M, Johnson, E C. “…While running HR remained stable, improvements in recovery HR in P1 suggest enhanced between-interval cardiac efficiency. …”

Mateo-March, M., Peña-González, I., Moya-Ramón, M., Javaloyes, A. “…World Tour cyclists employ structured training strategies with progressive volume and load increases and intensification within a pyramidal pattern, improving performance for competitive demands and supporting performance across a season.…”

Kudo, S., Yanai, T., Matsuda, Y. “…This study introduced power generated by underwater strokes as a crucial factor for assessing front crawl performance in the stroke phases and identified key segmental rotations that lead to the increased that power and, consequently, improved performance.…”

MacDougall, K. B., Aboodarda, S. J., Wickenberg, A. B., Macintosh, B. R. “…Background Prior high-intensity exercise (priming) has been shown to accelerate the oxygen uptake (VO2) kinetics, as well as improve exercise tolerance during subsequent high-intensity exercise, yet the mechanisms underpinning the performance changes are unclear. …”

Kettunen, O., Mikkola, J., Ihalainen, J. K. “…Purpose: To investigate if elite endurance athletes periodized their body mass (BM) and composition from preparation (T1) to specific preparation period (T2) and if changes in BM and body composition were associated with improved endurance performance. Methods: Fifty-two elite endurance athletes participated in this study. …”

López-Plaza, D., Alacid, F., Abellán-Aynés, O., Quero-Calero, C. D. “…Results Menarche-based differences were identified in handgrip strength, 10 m underwater from push, and sprint performance in the second year (P < 0.05), with menarcheal girls showing greater improvements in these attributes throughout the year. …”

Pirlot, T., Baron, B., Scholler, V., Grappe, F., Pageaux, B., Groslambert, A. “…Methods: Twenty-four male cyclists (12 professionals and 12 national level) matched for VO2max (75.2 [5.9] vs 74.3 [7.1] mL·min-1·kg-1) performed a 60-minute treadmill cycling test simulating race-end conditions. …”

Imanian, B., Hemmatinafar, M., Maymandinejad, I., Binazade, M. R., Jäger, R., Jahan, Z., Naseri, K., Rezaei, R., Suzuki, K. “…Any reference to gut-muscle-axis modulation is hypothesis-generating, as stool sequencing and metabolite profiling were not performed. Larger, sex-inclusive trials incorporating in-water, stroke-embedded assessments and microbiome/metabolomic profiling are warranted.…”

Sprenger, H. M. L., van Biljouw, T., Bentley, D. J. “…Purpose: We evaluated the feasibility of individualized sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) supplementation and its physiological effects on simulated artistic swimming duet performance, including blood buffering responses, perceived exertion, gastrointestinal (GI) tolerance, and performance scores. …”

Yu, S., Zhou, S., Peng, D., Jie, D. “…The CT group exhibited superior improvements in CMJ peak power (p = 0.010), DJ performance (p = 0.017), and RSI (p < 0.001). …”

Rezaei, H., Gheitasi, M., Hosseini, S. M. “…Conclusion Corrective exercises were effective in improving postural alignment, range of motion, and shoulder pain symptomatology, but did not significantly affect swimming performance. …”

Whitfield, J., McKay, A. K. A., Tee, N., McCormick, R., Morabito, A., Karagounis, L. G., Fouassier, A. M., D`Amico, D., Singh, A., Burke, L. M., Hawley, J. A. “…Results: Running performance (3000 m time trial) was not significantly improved in either treatment group (UA; p = 0.116, PL; p = 0.771), although UA supplementation significantly lowered ratings of perceived exertion (RPE, p = 0.02) and reduced indirect markers of post-exercise muscle damage (CK, total area under the curve p < 0.0001) following the 3000 m time trial compared with PL. …”

Arc-Chagnaud, C., Dugué, B., Pla, R., Bouzigon, R., Bosquet, L., D-Day Consortium, Dupuy, O. “…Daily partial body cryostimulation exposure of 3 min at -110°C was performed (or not) during a consecutive period of 5 days, after the evening training session. …”

Goepp, T., Hayes, M., Hot, P., Rupp, T. “…According to the inverted-U theory, low-to-moderate intensity enhances cognition, but this remains unexplored in trained individuals who may better sustain cognitive performance at high intensities due to improved prefrontal cortex (PFC) homeostasis. …”

Madsen, L. L., Abel, K., Hansen, A. A., Christensen, P. M., Lønbro, S., Lundby, C., Gejl, K. D. “…At matched external workload (95% LTNCP), the CP-shoe improved RE and lowered [La-]b, HR, and Borg compared with the NCP-shoe. …”
