Acute metabolite responses to swimming exercise of different intensities in highly trained male and female swimmers

Physiological Reports, Volume 13, Issue 16, August 2025.
Abstract We investigated metabolite responses to different swimming intensities in 16 highly trained swimmers (9 males, 7 females, aged 16–24 years). After determining critical swimming speed (CS) with a 12 × 25 m maximal effort test, participants completed three swimming trials at moderate (below CS), heavy (at CS), and severe (above CS) intensities ...

Backstroke technique: an effective way to improve the healing of tibia fracture [PDF]

International Orthopaedics, 2006
To assess the method and results of applying a backstroke technique, we treated 43 patients with tibial shaft fracture using unreamed tibial nails (UTN). Of these patients, 27 suffered a closed fracture and 16 an open fracture. After the operation, the effect of treatment was evaluated: 42 of 43 cases were followed up from four to 18 months, averaging ...

Player‐Centric Shot Maps in Table Tennis

Computer Graphics Forum, Volume 44, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract Shot maps are popular in many sports as they typically plot events and player positions in the way they are collected, using a pitch or a table as an absolute coordinate system. We introduce a variation of a table tennis shot map that shifts the point of view from the table to the player. This results in a new reference system to plot incoming

Measuring the Swimming Skills of Adults Attending Swimming Lessons in Australia as a Drowning Prevention Measure

Health Promotion Journal of Australia, Volume 36, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Swimming and water safety skills are essential for reducing drowning. Swimming and water safety programs primarily focus on children, despite adults accounting for over 80% of fatal drowning in Australia. This study aims to identify types of adult swimming programs in Australia, who attends these programs, and measure their ...
