A 20-minute rest period after warm-up impairs repeated sprint ability of elite ...
Tito, Sandro; Machado, Margarida; Lopes, Diogo; Lopes, Raul; Nakamura, FábioAfter the warm-up, roller hockey players undertake up to 20 minutes of recovery prior to starting the match. Moreover, during the match, the use of skates prevents substitute players from executing explosive exercises as part of a rewarm-up. These factors can lead to a decrease in the anaerobic performance in the early minutes of game participation. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ...
Effects of warm-up duration on acute physical performance in highly trained mal...
Silva, Nuno; Travassos, Bruno; Gonçalves, Bruno; Brito, João; Nakamura, Fábio; Abade, EduardoWarm-up is a traditional pre-match routine that aims to enhance players’ readiness to subsequent activity. Manipulating the warm-up structure may be important to enhance acute performance. This study aimed to investigate the effects of different warm-up dura- tions on futsal players’ physical performance. Twelve highly trained male futsal players participated in this study during the in-season. All players perf...
How playing area dimension and number of players constrain football performance...
Nunes, Nuno; Gonçalves, Bruno; Coutinho, Diogo; Nakamura, Fábio; Travassos, BrunoThe aim of this investigation was to analyse the external workload, tactical individual actions of passing, and perceived internal load during unbalanced small-sided games. Ball possession formats (4v3, 4v4 and 4v5) were played in three different playing area dimensions (20 × 15m, 25 × 20m and 30 × 25m) by under-23 football players. Data were analysed under opposition-based perspective, by fixing one team (4vX)...

High-Speed Resistance Training in Older Women: The Role of Supervision
Ramirez-Campillo, Rodrigo; Martínez, Cristian; De La Fuente, Carlos I.; Cadore, Eduardo; Marques, MC; Nakamura, Fábio; Loturco, IrineuOlder women participated in a 12-week high-speed resistance training program under two supervisor-to-subject ratio methods (i.e., high versus low supervision) to assess its effects on muscle strength, power, functional performance, and quality of life assessed before (T1) and after (T2) intervention. Women were divided into either the control group (CG, n = 15), high supervision group (HSG, n = 30), or low supe...
