Diets, ergogenic supplements, and microbiota in professional and non-professional athletes

Abstract Background Regular physical activity has significant health benefits and can help prevent and manage non-communicable diseases. Intense exercise during training requires diet modulation to support health and performance. Anaerobic sports require high-protein diets, while aerobic sports prefer high-carbohydrate diets. Two-thirds of adult athletes take dietary supplements, and non-professional athletes also use supplements to enhance their appearance. However, dietary stress and imbalanced use of supplements leads the body to different diseases like gastrointestinal diseases and even multifactorial diseases e.g. cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases. Depending on the specific nutritional intake, supplementations, types of exercises the microbiota can be influenced positively or negatively. A systematic review meta-analysis and a pilot study were conducted to investigate the role of diet and supplementation about the microbial composition of the gut, under different types and intensities of physical activities. Methods The systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines, and the protocol was registered in PROSPERO (Number CRD42024500826). In a pilot study gut microbiota (16S amplicon sequencing), anthropometric data, and information on diet and supplementation, physical activity and sport habits were collected in a sample including professional and non-professional athletes. Results Out of 1318 studies, only 9 met the criteria for inclusion in the meta-analysis. The pilot study’s meta-regression analysis and microbiota analysis highlight the role of physical activity type in changing the Bacillota/Bacteroidota ratio (p = 0.001). Conclusions As gut training becomes more popular among athletes, it is necessary to map interactions between microbiota and different personalized diets, physical activities, and the most popular ergogenic supplements to enhance performance and athletic wellness Key messages • The microbiome can be influenced positively or negatively by the specific dietary intake, types of physical activities and ergogenic supplementations. • To map interactions between microbiota and different diets, physical activities, and popular ergogenic supplements is needed to design new strategies to enhance performance and athletic wellness.

Blended learning in physical education: application and motivation.

The aim of the research was to evaluate outdoor aerobic sport activities (OASA) in the physical education (PE) of university students using wearables and their potential to personalize the learning process and enhance motivation. In total, 368 university students participated. The OASA structure and the key points of application in PE were described. Descriptive statistics of the training units (n = 3,680) were processed. The students recorded their training data in the Strava app (10 sessions per semester), and the data were shared in the online sport community created on the Strava platform. Motivation was evaluated using a questionnaire. The focus was both on intrinsic motivation and extrinsic "ICT" motivation, based on Strava app features and tools. The most preferred outdoor aerobic sport activities were running (58%), cycling (13%), and walking (16%). The results provided insight into motivation and performance analysis. Students' motivation to participate in OASA was mainly in health concerns, such as staying in shape (94%), staying healthy (90%), and psychological concerns, such as having fun (88%), improving state of mind (88%), or relieving stress (83%). In achievement concerns, the motivation was a personal challenge (72%), while competing with others was ranked lowest (32%). The Strava app was a motivating tool for students to record, monitor, and analyze their individual activities and feel "connectedness" to the online sport community. 70% of students were motivated by the non-competitive character of PE, which gave them a personalized opportunity to train without being compared to others. The OASA management, with the use of blended learning methods and the Strava app, uses a motivational approach to create, support, and maintain students' healthy habits of physical activity through PE lessons. The need for students to be motivated to exercise can be confirmed in the analysis of the statistical descriptive parameters of running, cycling, and walking. There was a tendency for students to complete only the minimum required distance/time (not more). On the other hand, students enjoyed the training, and 99% of students confirmed that they would enroll again. That fact underlined the importance of motivating students with an effective learning strategy and giving support and guidance.

Biseasonal Changes in Aerobic Capacity and Sports Performance in Highly Trained Mountain Bike Cyclists Applying Elements of the Polarized Training Programme

Abstract Introduction. This study assessed maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max), power output and sports performance in mountain bike cyclists applying elements of the polarized training programme (POL) Material and Methods. Seven cyclists participated in the study. Immediately before the 2-year experiment (T1), and five times during the experiment (T2, T3, T4, T5, T6), incremental and verification tests were performed to assess VO2max, peak aerobic power (Ppeak) and power at the second ventilatory threshold (PVT2). During the experiment, sports performance in mountain bike cyclists at National Championships, European Championships, World Championships, and World Cup were analyzed. The cyclists performed POL for seven months in each year of the experiment. POL included sprint interval training, high-intensity interval training, and low-intensity endurance training. Results. In the group of cyclists VO2max [l∙min−1] increased in T6 (4.14 ± 1.13) compared to T1 (3.74 ± 0.95), Ppeak [W] increased in T4, T5 and T6 (353 ± 78.45; 350.14 ± 87.96; 360.23 ± 93.83; respectively) compared to T1 (324.14 ± 90.24), and PVT2 [W] increased in T3, T4, T5 and T6 (265.57 ± 80.66; 267.29 ± 63.74; 266.43 ± 69.29; 276.71 ± 78.99; respectively) compared to T1 (229.29 ± 62.91). Cyclists’ sports performance improved during the experiment, and one of them won bronze medal at the World Championships. Conclusions. During the biseasonal experiment using elements of the polarized training programme, improvements in VO2max, Ppeak and PVT2 were observed in cyclists, which was accompanied by better sports performance in cycling races.

Students health physique information sharing in publicly collaborative services over edge-cloud networks

Data privacy is playing a vital role while facing the digital life aspects. Today, the world is being extensively inter-connected through the internet of things (IoT) technologies. This huge interconnectivity is bringing very wonderful capabilities for improving the quality of life (QoL) with itself, for instance, in distributed healthcare. On the other hand, there are new challenges in the interconnectivity per use. One of the most challenging issues of IoT use in social systems and digital life is secure, trustable, and reliable interactions over IoT networks such that safety, security, and privacy in both aspects of cyber and physical worlds for humankind should be planned and controlled.Due to the less physical activity of most people in the current world, fitness and aerobic sports are now an important need at any age to help them keep healthy in their cyber-physical life, specifically, for the younger student that are still in the growth ages. However, these sport activities need to be monitored seriously and closely to not put their life in danger. Herewith, healthcare services through IoT is becoming more applicable. Therefore, health information privacy for athletes is now a hot topic of investigation as we present the topic here. We propose an IoT-based physique healthcare system considering private information sharing for athletes based on data hiding at the edge of a collaborative system. The proposed system pays attention to the key factors of healthcare IoT infrastructure but it is bringing its new suggestions for more safety. Moreover, many evaluations based on different kinds of healthcare data are provided.

A systematic review, meta-analysis, and meta-regression of the prevalence of self-reported disordered eating and associated factors among athletes worldwide

BackgroundThe purpose of this meta-analysis was to provide a pooled prevalence estimate of self-reported disordered eating (SRDE) in athletes based on the available literature, and to identify risk factors for their occurrence.MethodsAcross ten academic databases, an electronic search was conducted from inception to 7th January 2024. The proportion of athletes scoring at or above predetermined cutoffs on validated self-reporting screening measures was used to identify disordered eating (DE). Subgroup analysis per country, per culture, and per research measure were also conducted. Age, body mass index (BMI), and sex were considered as associated/correlated factors.ResultsThe mean prevalence of SRDE among 70,957 athletes in 177 studies (132 publications) was 19.23% (17.04%; 21.62%), I2 = 97.4%, τ2 = 0.8990, Cochran's Q p value = 0. Australia had the highest percentage of SRDE athletes with a mean of 57.1% (36.0%-75.8%), while Iceland had the lowest, with a mean of 4.9% (1.2%-17.7%). The SRDE prevalence in Eastern countries was higher than in Western countries with 29.1% versus 18.5%. Anaerobic sports had almost double the prevalence of SRDE 37.9% (27.0%-50.2%) compared to aerobic sports 19.6% (15.2%-25%). Gymnastics sports had the highest SRDE prevalence rate, with 41.5% (30.4%-53.6%) while outdoor sports showed the lowest at 15.4% (11.6%-20.2%). Among various tools used to assess SRDE, the three-factor eating questionnaire yielded the highest SRDE rate 73.0% (60.1%-82.8%). Meta-regression analyses showed that female sex, older age, and higher BMI (all p < 0.01) are associated with higher prevalence rates of SRDE.ConclusionThe outcome of this review suggests that factors specific to the sport affect eating behaviors throughout an athlete's life. As a result, one in five athletes run the risk of developing an eating disorder. Culture-specific and sport-specific diagnostic tools need to be developed and increased attention paid to nutritional deficiencies in athletes.

The waist injuries and treatment methods of rowers

Rowing is one of the worlds competitive sports, and it is an extremely energy intensive aerobic sport. This sport requires very strict physical fitness for athletes. Therefore, rowers need to withstand extreme load training and ultra-high intensity endurance training, whether in daily training or in actual competitions. Rowers must possess good physical fitness and functional abilities, as well as flexibility and agility. However, the prolonged physical wear and tear experienced by rowing athletes during training and competition can easily lead to sports injuries. Due to the influence of many factors, emphasis has been placed on rowing physical fitness training. In the specific operation process, it is necessary to closely combine the characteristics of rowing and the actual physical condition of athletes and develop a scientific and reasonable plan for rowing and injury treatment. Therefore, this article first starts from the investigation of physical injuries and types of injuries among different athletes and finds that the proportion of waist injuries is the highest. At the same time, it elaborates on the basic reasons for waist injuries, and finally provides rehabilitation treatment plans, allowing rowing athletes to make more progress and development.

In this regard, it became necessary to use physiotherapeutic methods of treatment to restore erectile function with minimal side effects.&#x0D; This review also presents pathogenetic substantiated basic physiotherapeutic methods for treating patients with erectile dysfunction using pelvic floor muscle training, aerobic sports exercises, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, manual therapy and mechanical vibration therapy.

Features of using a step-platform for the development of physical abilities of girls engaged in sports aerobics at the stage of basic training

The article is devoted to studying the influence of exercises with a step-platform on the dynamics of development and improvement of physical abilities of athletes in sports aerobics. The purpose of the study is to study the effectiveness of the use of step-platform for the development of physical abilities of girls engaged in sports aerobics at the stage of basic training. To solve the problems of the study, the following methods were used: study, analysis, systematization and synthesis of literature on the topic of the study; questionnaires; pedagogical experiment; testing the level of development of physical abilities: flexibility, strength, speed strength and coordination abilities and endurance, mathematical and statistical methods. The study involved 20 girls who were involved in aerobic sports in the basic training groups of the fourth year. They were 11-12 years old by the beginning of the experiment. All subjects were divided into a control and experimental group of 10 athletes in each. For girls, the pilot group was to introduce six step-platform exercises over a 12-week period. Each of the developed complexes is aimed at the preferential development of one of the physical abilities requiring a high level of development in sports aerobics. The study proved that the systematic inclusion in training exercises of special exercises with step-platforms for three months contributed to a statistically probable increase in flexibility (at p&lt;0.01), explosive force (at p&lt;0.02), aerobic endurance (at p&lt; 0.02) and strength endurance and agility (at p&lt;0.05). In the construction of complexes should be used exercises aimed at increasing the level of both general physical preparedness and special.

Evaluation of free and bound carnitine in young athletes

The study of the characteristics of carnitine metabolism in representatives of certain sports makes it possible to study the effect of physical loads of various nature on the body of a young athlete, and also makes it possible to assess the competitive potential and predict the tolerance of long-term and intense loads. Purpose. This study is to investigate the characteristics of carnitine metabolism in young athletes of various specializations. Material and methods. The study included athletes aged 14 to 18 who had been engaged in intense physical exercise for at least 12 hours per week forthe past 12 months or more. The control group consisted of healthy children aged 14 to 18 who were not involved in sports. In the blood serum of all study participants, the concentration of free carnitine, acetylcarnitine and acylcarnitines was determined. Based on the data obtained, ratios were calculated reflecting the activity of lipid beta-oxidation enzymes. Results. We found that the content of free carnitine in the representatives of all the studied groups was within the normal range. At the same time, the level of free carnitine in the blood of athletes involved in field hockey was significantly lower than that of athletes-swimmers and representatives of the control group (p&lt;0.001). It was also studied that, compared with athletes-swimmers and the control group, athletes-hockey players have significantly higher functional activity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (p&lt;0.05) and lipid beta-oxidation enzymes (p&lt;0.001). Conclusion. In our work we have demonstrated that athletes involved in team sports (field hockey) have a more pronounced shift towards fatty acid oxidation compared to aerobic sports (swimming). A possible reason for the identified changes may be a more significant effect of alternating aerobic and anaerobic loads on lipid metabolism compared to exclusively aerobic activity.

The effect of high-dose vitamin D supplementation and an exercise program to lose weight on some biochemical variables of overweight women

Background and Study Aim. In recent years, there has been a technological revolution and development in all fields, particularly the sports field. This has imposed on man a lifestyle characterized by comfort at the expense of a significant portion of his movement and activities. The problem of obesity has expanded beyond the inconsistency of the body to include its direct effect of increasing the proportion of fat and the negative impact on the work of vital organs. This disruption alters the body's internal environment and causes numerous diseases. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of a sports program on taking vitamin D to lose weight and on some biochemical variables in young adults aged 30 to 35 years old. Materials and Methods. The study involved 10 overweight women aged 30-35 years, selected through intentional sampling. Inclusion criteria required consent, good health, and no ongoing vitamin D or exercise programs. The research employed a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) design. Primary outcome measures encompassed body weight, body composition, lipid profile, and vitamin D status. Anthropometric measurements included age, height, weight, and training age. Biochemical measurements involved blood tests for cholesterol, triglycerides, and vitamin D levels. The experimental group received vitamin D tablets and a proposed aerobic exercise program for 12 weeks. Results. The proposed aerobic sports program with vitamin D intake improved biochemical variables, such as total fat, total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density cholesterol, low-density cholesterol, OH, and Vitamin D-025 for the sample under investigation. The application of the aerobic program with vitamin D led to weight loss among the study's female participants. The aerobic program with vitamin D intake has a positive effect on the general health status of the sample. Conclusions. Based on the study's findings, it is recommended to consider the positive effects of Vitamin D on the overall functional state of the body, making it essential to incorporate an aerobic sports program across various age groups. Regular medical tests are crucial for monitoring and maintaining overall health. Emphasizing the importance of regular exercise is vital in preventing weight gain and reducing the risk of certain chronic diseases. By implementing these recommendations, individuals can enhance their overall well-being and lead a healthier lifestyle. To further validate these outcomes, similar studies should be conducted on different age groups and diverse samples.

Quantitative Study of Sports Injury Among Male and Female Athletes in Some Aerobic and Anaerobic Sports

Quantitative Study of Sports Injury Among Male and Female Athletes in Some Aerobic and Anaerobic Sports

Fingerstick blood assay maps real-world NAD+ disparity across gender and age.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) level has been associated with various age-related diseases and its pharmacological modulation emerges as a potential approach for aging intervention. But human NAD+ landscape exhibits large heterogeneity. The lack of rapid, low-cost assays limits the establishment of whole-blood NAD+ baseline and the development of personalized therapies, especially for those with poor responses towards conventional NAD+ supplementations. Here, we developed an automated NAD+ analyzer for the rapid measurement of NAD+ with 5 μL of capillary blood using recombinant bioluminescent sensor protein and automated optical reader. The minimal invasiveness of the assay allowed a frequent and decentralized mapping of real-world NAD+ dynamics. We showed that aerobic sport and NMN supplementation increased whole-blood NAD+ and that male on average has higher NAD+ than female before the age of 50. We further revealed the long-term stability of human NAD+ baseline over 100 days and identified major real-world NAD+ -modulating behaviors.

Return to Performance Protocols and Criteria Specific to Aerobic Capacity for Aerobic Athletes Who Sustain Lower Extremity Injuries: A Narrative Review

ABSTRACT Return to performance (RTP) protocols vary greatly between sports due to energy system involvement, physical and biomechanical skills, injury type and severity, and varied recommendations from members of the interprofessional care team. Return decisions are guided by clinical reasoning, expert opinion, experience, and sport-specific frameworks. Lower extremity injuries that prevent athletes from continuous aerobic training lead to decreased aerobic capacity upon return, which is linked to increased risk of injury or reinjury. This narrative review compares documented rehabilitation programs and RTP protocols and criteria specific to aerobic capacity for athletes who sustain lower extremity injuries in highly aerobic sports. Databases were searched from 2010 to 2022, yielding 9 primary articles and 11 review articles. No RTP protocol specific to aerobic capacity was identified. Considering the lack of evidence regarding aerobic capacity testing and prescription in RTP protocols, research is necessary to determine the significance of aerobic capacity recommended for RTP. Strength and conditioning coaches should be aware of the decreased aerobic capacity at the time of return, thus the need for additional testing, and implement individualized aerobic conditioning programs to optimize return. .

Comparison of spirometric parameters in athletes engaged in aerobic and anaerobic sports: a cross-sectional study.

This cross-sectional study was conducted among 131 professional athletes. A convenience sampling technique was used. The data were collected from April to November 2022 using a proforma form, entered into Microsoft Excel, and analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 16. Out of 131 total participants, 65 were involved in aerobic sports, while 66 were in anaerobic sports. The mean age of the participants was 27.34±5 years, the majority being male (n=104). Aerobic athletes had higher differences in forced vital capacity (1.19%, P=0.726) and forced expiratory volume in the first second (3.08%, P=0.315), the difference was not statistically significant. Statistically significantly higher difference in forced expiratory flow at 25-75% (13.42%, P=0.001), forced expiratory flow at 0.2-1.2 l/s (7.47%, P=0.035), and maximum voluntary ventilation (8.58%, P=0.023) values were observed among aerobic athletes. Aerobic and anaerobic athletes had no statistically significant difference in forced vital capacity and forced expiratory volume in the first second; however, other spirometry parameters were comparatively better in aerobic athletes.

The Effects of Aerobic Sports on Fatigue and Vital Sign in Sportsman

The lactic acid buildup has long been suspected as a cause of muscle fatigue. Lactate is a waste of anaerobic metabolism; this process takes place in the absence of oxygen. Blood pressure, pulse, and respiration are vital signs to monitor adaptation to fatigue levels. This study aims to determine the effect of aerobic exercise on the level of fatigue and vital signs in athletes. This research is a quasi-experimental study with a non-random re-experimental design. Lactic acid levels and vital signs were assessed before and after the exercise program in 3 groups, namely the light-intensity exercise treatment group, the moderate-intensity exercise group, and the control group. The research site is at the Harapan Bangsa football stadium in Banda Aceh. The subject of PPLP Dispora Aceh athletes. The exercise was carried out for four weeks. The average lactic acid levels of the three groups showed differences. A significant decrease in lactic acid after the training test was seen in the group with OAIS (p = 0.04). Exercise with the right intensity, duration, and frequency can reduce lactic acid levels and vital signs. This study shows that moderate-intensity exercise can affect reducing lactic acid levels and vital signs so that it can slow down fatigue during exercise in Aceh football athletes.
