Influence of Training Load on Mood Disturbance at Sea Level and 3900 m Altitude: A Case Study of a Wheelchair Athlete
2018
The purpose of this case study was to investigate the influence of a training load (TL), oxygen saturation (SO2) and blood pressure (BP) on mood states in a wheelchair marathoner during (7 weeks at sea level (SL), 5 weeks at 3860 m altitude, 1 week returning to SL). TL was obtained with Foster’s equation while mood states were obtained with the Profile of Mood States Questionnaire (POMS). Furthermore, SO2 and BP were assessed upon wakening. SO2 (%) decreased at altitude, compared to SL (88.31 ± 2.46 vs. 98.52 ± 0.11) and increased until the last week at altitude (92.64 ± 1.12). Systolic pressure (SP) increased at altitude compared to pre-altitude (126.0 ± 5…
The influence of the physical education teacher on intrinsic motivation, self-confidence, anxiety, and pre-and post-competition mood states
2001
One of the fundamental problems facing teachers of physical education (PE) is how to increase pupils' motivation. From the point of view of goal achievement, guidelines need to be established so that information may be used to greater effect in classes. This study examined the relationship between the motivational climate created by the PE teacher and the intrinsic motivation of the preparatory sessions together with self-confidence and anxiety prior to competition and pre- and post-competition mood states. The sample was made up of school children (M age = 11.7) from a state school (N = 115), who, after an introduction to an athletics course of 12 sessions, took part in a sports competitio…
Intervención Psicológica en un jugador de pádel competitivo: un estudio de caso
2021
Se presenta un estudio de caso único de un jugador de pádel de rendimiento de 23 años que pretendía mejorar su desempeño psicológico en los partidos y disfrutar del pádel. Para ello, se desarrollaron cuatro fases: (1) detección y evaluación de la demanda real, (2) desarrollo de la intervención, (3) evaluación final y consolidación del trabajo, y (4) seguimiento. Para la medición previa y posterior a la intervención se utilizó el CPRD y dos instrumentos ad hoc sobre variables psicológicas e ideas potenciadoras en el deporte. Durante la intervención se utilizaron las estrategias psicológicas de establecimiento de objetivos, parada de pensamiento, autorregistro de ideas potenciadoras, rutinas …
Influence of Sports Participation on the Behaviors of Customers of Sports Services: Linear and Qualitative Comparative Analysis Models
2023
Sports services have become an important enclave for our society. Due to its complete sports offer, customers can perform physical activity that helps them to improve their health and well-being. In fitness centers, managers try to know what their customers are looking for in order to create more personalized experiences, as well as to improve their health. This study seeks to understand the influence that sports frequency has on the future behavior of users of a sports center, using two complementary methodologies. A sample of 383 users of a private sports center was used. The two complementary methodologies used were linear models and comparative qualitative analysis, based on the combina…
Residents’ Perception of the Impact of Sports Tourism on Sustainable Social Development
2022
The analysis of the social perception of citizens and evaluations of the impact of sport tourism and their support for tourism development can be of great use in the formulation of policies aimed at social cohesion and local development. These actions favor social participation and inclusion, equal opportunities, and more positive attitudes towards sports tourism and inclusive sport. This study aims to analyze the perception and predisposition towards the support of citizens on the impact of sport tourism from a multidimensional perspective. Specifically, this study evaluates the social perception on four measures: social impact, cultural impact, environmental impact, and local policies. Th…

Estudio preliminar de la activación neuromuscular corriendo descalzo y calzado = Preliminary study of the neuromuscular activation during barefoot an…
2015
El objetivo del presente estudio preliminar fue comparar la actividad muscular de los músculos tibial anterior, peroneo lateral largo, gastrocnemio medial y gastrocnemio lateral entre la carrera con y sin calzado, y la influencia de la fatiga. 7 participantes realizaron una carrera de fatiga de 20 minutos al 75% de su velocidad aeróbica máxima en cinta con 1% de pendiente. Se midió la actividad mioeléctrica de los músculos antes mencionados tanto antes como después de la prueba de fatiga en dos condiciones: con calzado y sin calzado. Los resultados mostraron una mayor actividad del tibial anterior durante la carrera en fatiga descalzo respecto a la carrera calzado y una mayor actividad del …
Spectral properties of muscle activation during incremental cycling test
2015
It is uncertain whether fatigue and workload would affect muscle recruitment during cycling. To infer on changes in priority for recruitment of motor units, we assessed the combined effects of fatigue and workload during an incremental cycling test to exhaustion on frequency components of lower limbs muscle activation. Competitive cyclists performed an incremental maximal cycling test while muscle activations were recorded from the right and left vastus lateralis, biceps femoris and gastrocnemius medialis. Muscle activation signals were assessed using frequency band analyses and decomposed into overall, high and low frequency bands. Combined effects from workload/fatigue were assessed using…
Impact Acceleration During Prolonged Running While Wearing Conventional Versus Minimalist Shoes.
2020
Purpose: In recent years a sub-group of minimalist runners have emerged who aim to perform physical exercise more naturally in an attempt to reduce running-related injuries. Here we aimed to determine the effect that running with minimalist footwear in a prolonged run has on footimpact accelerations. Method: Seventeen runners ran with minimalist and conventional shoes (MS and CS, respectively) in two separate sessions; the participants had experience with both footwear types. We measured the length and frequency of each stride, as well as the tibial and head impact acceleration every 5 minutes during a prolonged run (30 minutes at 80% of each individual's maximum aerobic speed). Results: Th…
Tourisme Sportif et Identités : Les pratiquants de canoë en Zambie
2013
Cet article repose sur une enquête sur les usages sociaux du canoë en Zambie. Il a pour objectif de décrire les caractéristiques des relations sociales qui se nouent entre étrangers et « populations locales ». Si l’organisation de l’activité recouvre une visée touristique pour nombre de pays africains, touristes et habitants entrent peu en interaction en dehors de la pratique des loisirs. Pour étudier l’identité, il s’agit de caractériser la genèse du tour en canoë afin de saisir l’émergence de modes d’appréhension de l’Autre dans le cadre du loisir en Zambie. La singularité des relations sociales entre populations occidentales et africaines pose la question de la différence culturelle, au …
