Improving Motor Competence of Children: The “Super Quinas” Intervention Program...

Objectives: The objective of this study was to describe the effects of an extra hour of a structured motor program on the motor competence (MC) of children 6–10 years old.. Design: The need for movement interventions to enhance MC among school-aged children has gained vital importance in the last years, given the negative secular trends reported. Hence, the Portuguese Football Federation organized an interventi...

Grip Strength, Fall Efficacy, and Balance Confidence as Associated Factors with...

Background: Falls are a major public health concern among older adults, often resulting in injury, functional decline, and reduced quality of life.
