Ikonomi, E., Bozaxhiu, A., Puma, V., Kosta, O. “…Background: Training in artistic gymnastics is a conscious and systematic process involving training loads, designed to develop various components such as movement skills, technical and tactical abilities, health and psychological, aspects. During the stages of sports training, the primary focus is on enhancing execution ability. …”

Ahmad, N., Khan, W., Arif, T., Ahmed, S. “…Evaluating these relationships is essential for developing evidence-based training and health strategies. The aim of this study was to examine how body composition, cardiovascular health, and dietary habits influence apparatus-specific performance among elite male artistic gymnasts in Pakistan. …”

Smith, L. S., Louw, Q. A., Brink, Y. “…The insights gained from this research could be crucial in redesigning training programs for dancers, adjusting training intensity and volume to enhance performance, and promoting recovery. Furthermore, this information serves as a strong rationale for adopting a holistic approach to fatigue and recovery, emphasising the importance of a collaborative effort to address these aspects effectively.…”

M. “…Our ultimate objective is to enhance aquatic athlete health and performance. Objective The objective was to refine the injury and illness surveillance protocols to develop aquatic-specific definitions of injury and illness; define aquatic-specific injury location and causation; better describe overuse injuries; regard pre-existing and recurrent injuries; more accurately define aquatic athlete exposures and develop a protocol to capture out-of-competition aquatic athlete health parameters. …”

“…Outcome variables included Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IFG-I), energy intake/balance, body composition, profile of mood states (POMS) and physical performance (Wingate test X2). Findings indicate that a reduction of within-day energy deficits through between-meal snacking improves mood states, improves physical performance, lowers body fat percentage, and enhances the athletes` sense of well-being. …”
