  Carballeira, Eduardo; Furtado Guilherme, Eustáquio; Letieri, Rubens (MDPI, 2022-12-23)

• The effects of an eight-week integrated functional core and plyometric training program on young rhythmic gymnasts’ explosive strength 

  Carballeira, Eduardo; Cabrejas Mata, Cristina; Solana-Tramunt, Mónica; Morales, José; Nieto Guisado, Ainhoa; Bofill-Ródenas, Ana; Pierantozzi, Emanuela (MDPI, 2023-01-06)

  [Abstract]: Background: Explosive strength is essential for rhythmic gymnasts’ performance. It has been suggested that core stability (CS) and plyometric training can enhance athletes’ explosive strength. Nevertheless, ...

• Central and peripheral fatigue in recreational trail runners: A pilot study 

  Varela-Sanz, Adrián; Muñoz-Pérez, I; Lago-Fuentes, Carlos; Navarro Patón, Rubén; Mecías Calvo, Marcos (MDPI, 2023)

  [Abstract]: Background: Understanding fatigue mechanisms is crucial for exercise performance. However, scientific evidence on non-invasive methods for assessing fatigue in trail running competitions is scarce, especially ...

• Maximum aerobic speed, maximum oxygen consumption, and running spatiotemporal parameters during an incremental test among middle- and long-distance runners and endurance non-running athletes 

  Casado, Arturo; Tuimil, José Luis; Iglesias, Xabier; Fernández Del Olmo, Miguel; Jiménez Reyes, pedro; Martín Acero, Rafael; Rodríguez, Ferran A. (PeerJ Inc., 2022-10-05)

  [Abstract] Background. Maximal aerobic speed (MAS) is a useful parameter to assess aerobic capacity and estimate training intensity in middle- and long-distance runners. However, whether middle- and long-distance runners ...
