Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Optimize Athletic Performance! Deep Water Exercise for High Performance Sport What is it? Deep water exercise or running is exactly what the name would imply. The athlete follows an exercise routine while suspended in a body of deep water. This non-weight bearing environment gives Deep Water Exercise (DWE) its unique potential for benefit. "Due to the non-weight bearing nature of DWE, an athlete can often perform high intensity training in the water, while unable to bear even their own body weight when standing on land." MM Mike Moon has expanded the concept of deep water running to include "Deep Water Skating," the training technique he has employed with hockey players. The principles of DWE can be successfully applied to a variety of sports.

Download or read book The Masters Athlete written by Joe Baker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-09-10 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters athletes are those that continue to train and compete, typically at a high level, beyond the age of thirty-five and into middle and old age. As populations in the industrialized world get older and governments become increasingly keen to promote healthy aging and non-pharmacological interventions, the study of masters athletes enables us to better understand the benefits of, and motivations for, life-long involvement in physical activity. This is the first book to draw together current research on masters athletes. The Masters Athlete examines the evidence that cognitive skills, motor skills and physiological capabilities can be maintained at a high level with advancing age, and that age related decline is slowed in athletes that continue to train and compete in their later years. Including contributions from leading international experts in physiology, motor behaviour, psychology, gerontology and medicine, the book explores key issues such as: motivation for involvement in sport and physical activity across the lifespan evidence of lower incidence of cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and diabetes the maintenance of performance with age. Challenging conventional views of old age, and with important implications for policy and future research, this book is essential reading for students and practitioners working in sport and exercise science, aging and public health, human development, and related disciplines.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The goal of this study was to determine which physiologic response, heart rate (HR) or the rating of perceived exertion (RPE) was a better indicator of oxygen consumption (V02) during a maximal stress test using deep water running. Nine men and four women from the Spokane, Washington running community and the Community Colleges of Spokane 1998 cross country team performed a graded exercise test to achieve V02peak. The graded exercise test used a metronome and a series of 2-minute stages using designated leg cadences to increase work intensity, until a marker for V02peak was met, the subjects were too exhausted to continue or they showed repeated improper mechanics. Data analysis consisted of a multiple linear regression comparing V02, HR and RPE at all levels of intensity. V02 was designated as the dependent variable and HR and RPE were the independent variables. The results of the data analysis showed extremely high correlations between all three variables at all intensity levels. A prediction equation for V02 during deep water running using endurance athletes was determined. The potential ramifications of this study may be the concept that land and water exercise are so different that they should not be compared when attempting to designate workload. The findings also indicate the possibility that regardless of mode, HR and RPE remain correlated as well as both being correlated to V02 and further research is necessary using other populations to determine whether the conditions hold true for others"--Document.

Download or read book The Effect of Intensity and Frequency of Various Training Schedules on Running Performance written by Ronald Lyle Richardson and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of frequency and intensity of various training schedules on running performance. The distance in feet that the subjects were able to run in one minute was considered to be his running performance for this study. The intensity of the training schedules were determined by one of the following interval methods. The methods used were twelve repetitions of fifteen seconds; six repetitions of thirty seconds; four repetitions of forty-five seconds; three repetitions of sixty seconds; two repetitions of ninety seconds; and one workout consisting of one thirty second run, one sixty second run, and one ninety second run. The frequency of the training schedules were either five days per week or three days per week with the workouts on alternate days. The investigator used 280 male sophomore physical education students presently attending William Horlick High School of Racine, Wisconsin, for the subjects of this investigation. Twelve groups of twenty students each participated in the experimental training program. Six of these were assigned to the five day per week training schedules and six were assigned to the three day per week schedule. In addition to twelve experimental groups two groups were assigned to be control groups with one each assigned to the different frequency levels. The students were assigned to each of the groups by random selection which consisted of drawing their names out of a hat. Each of the groups consisted of students having physical education at various times during the day so that the time in which the training schedule was followed would not influence the results. The twelve experimental groups were tested at the end of each week. The test consisted of a one minute run in which they were instructed to run as far as they could in the one minute time limit. Their distance was recorded to the nearest foot. The two control groups were measured in the same way with the exception that they were measured only at the beginning and again at the conclusion of the study. The control groups participated in a gymnastic unit with no training other than class work. The twelve training schedule groups involved in the study were varied as to frequency and intensity of training schedules. Due to the small size of each group the statistical design used to analyze the outcomes of this study was a computerized small sample t-test. Through the use of a computer it was relatively easy to analyze all combinations throughout the groups. The results of the investigation were: 1. All of the training groups have a statistically significant mean gain over their initial measurement. Five of the five day per week training groups has a statistically significant mean gain over their initial measurement. Five of the five day per week training groups has a statistically significant mean gain of over 40 feet, two of the three day per week groups had a statistically significant mean gain of over 30 feet. All of these measurements were significant at the 0.05 level of significance. 2. There was a significant difference at the 0.05 level of significance between the mean gains between the two control groups and nine of the experimental groups. The experimental groups I, VII and IX did not display this difference at the 0.05 level of significance. 3. There was no difference at the 0.05 level of significance between the mean gains of the twelve experimental groups. Based on the results of this investigation the following conclusions appear to be justified: 1. Running performances can be improved during the first six weeks of training as well by a three day per week practice schedule, as by a five day per week practice schedule. 2. Improvement in running performance for the three day per week training groups seems to be slower than those following a five day per week plan, but they do seem to show more consistency in their performances than do the five day per week groups. 3. During the first six weeks of a training program there is no significant difference between the mean gains at the 0.05 level of significance among the various levels of intensity used in the study.
