Impact of lower-volume training on physical fitness adaptations in team sports ...
Clemente, Filipe Manuel; Ramirez-Campillo, Rodrigo; Moran, Jason; Zmijewski, Piotr; Silva, Rui Miguel; Randers, Morten BredsgaardBackground A small number of reviews have explored lower‑ versus higher‑volume training in non‑athletes, but the growing challenge of congested schedules in team sports highlights the need to synthesize evidence specific to team sport athletes. Thus, the objectives of this systematic review with meta‑analysis are twofold: (i) to summarize the primary physiological and physical fitness outcomes of lower‑volume v...
A Review of the Literature for a Call for Action to Improve Muscular Fitness in...
Sortwell, Andrew; Ramirez-Campillo, Rodrigo; Thapa, Rohit Kumar; Ulloa-Sánchez, Paul; Branquinho, Luís; Teixeira, José EduardoMuscular fitness (i.e., power, strength and endurance) is reported to be beneficial for children’s physical, mental, and social development, encompassing a holistic approach to student wellbeing. However, modern sedentary lifestyles have led to declines in student muscular fitness and motor skills, highlighting the need to prioritize physical activities that promote muscular fitness. Education authorities often...
Surf therapy for people with mental health disorders: a systematic review of ra...
Carneiro, Lara; Clemente, Filipe Manuel; Claudino, João Gustavo; Ferreira, José; Ramirez-Campillo, Rodrigo; Afonso, JoséBackground: Surf therapy is gaining popularity for improving mental health. However, there is limited research evidence to substantiate these claims. Therefore, this systematic review aimed to assess randomized or non randomized studies analyzing the efficacy of surf therapy in improving symptoms of mental illness compared to non exercising controls and/or alternative intervention, and to identify evidential ga...
High-intensity interval training programs and their impact on endurance perform...
Henrique, José Rocha; Ramirez-Campillo, Rodrigo; González Fernandez, Francisco Tomás; Castillo, Daniel; Raya-González, Javier; Zmijewski, PiotrStudy aim: This systematic review aimed to identify and analyze the available evidence about the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) interventions on endurance performance in handball players. Material and methods: The search for relevant literature was conducted across prominent databases, including PubMed, Scopus, SPORTDiscus, and Web of Science Core Collection. The eligibility criteria focused...
The perils of misinterpreting and misusing publication bias in meta-analyses
Afonso, José; Ramirez-Campillo, Rodrigo; Clemente, Filipe Manuel; Cléirigh Büttner, Fionn; Andrade, RenatoPublication bias refers to a systematic deviation from the truth in the results of a meta-analysis due to the higher likelihood for published studies to be included in meta-analyses than unpublished studies. Publication bias can lead to misleading recommendations for decision and policy making. In this education review, we introduce, explain, and provide solutions to the pervasive misuses and misinterpretations...
Neuromuscular and balance adaptations following basketball-specific training pr...
Brini, Seifeddine; Boullosa, Daniel; Calleja-González, Julio; Ramirez-Campillo, Rodrigo; Nobari, Hadi; Castagna, Carlo; Clemente, Filipe ManuelMultidirectional jumping and repeated sprint ability are crucial performance factors in bas ketball. The main aim of this investigation was to examine the neuromuscular performance and bodybalance adaptations following basketball-specific combined training programs based on drop jump and multidirectional repeated sprint versus multidirectional plyometric training. Forty-two professional basketball male players ...
Effectiveness of conservative interventions after acute hamstrings injuries in ...
Afonso, José; Olivares-Jabalera, Jesús; Fernandes, Ricardo J.; Clemente, Filipe Manuel; Rocha-Rodrigues, Sílvia; Claudino, João GustavoBackground: Hamstrings injuries are common in sports and the reinjury risk is high. Despite the extensive literature on hamstrings injuries, the efectiveness of the diferent conservative (i.e., non-surgical) interventions (i.e., modalities and doses) for the rehabilitation of athletes with acute hamstrings injuries is unclear. Objective: We aimed to compare the efects of diferent conservative interventions in t...
Interaction of kinematic, kinetic, and energetic predictors of young swimmers’ ...
Morais, J.E.; Barbosa, Tiago M.; Bragada, José A.; Ramirez-Campillo, Rodrigo; Marinho, D.A.The aim of this study was to assess the interaction of kinematic, kinetic, and energetic variables as speed predictors in adolescent swimmers in the front-crawl stroke. Design: Ten boys (mean age [SD] = 16.4 [0.7] y) and 13 girls (mean age [SD] = 14.9 [0.9] y) were assessed. Methods: The swimming performance indicator was a 25-m sprint. A set of kinematic, kinetic (hydrodynamic and propulsion), and energetic va...
Making neuroscience a priority in Initial teacher education curricula: a call f...
Sortwell, Andrew; Evgenia, Gkintoni; Zagarella, Samuel; Granacher, Urs; Forte, Pedro; Ferraz, Ricardo; Ramirez-Campillo, RodrigoConstant global advancements and expanding evidence in the neuroscience of learning have provided compelling support for the inclusion of neuroscience as a crucial content priority in initial teacher education. Existing research confirms the efficacy of neurocognitive interventions for atypical and typical school-aged learners in a variety of key subject areas. Despite advances in the neuroscience of learning, ...
24-h Movement Guidelines and Overweight and Obesity Indicators in Toddlers, Chi...
Marques, Adilson; Ramirez-Campillo, Rodrigo; Gouveia, Élvio R; Ferrari, Gérson; Tesler, Riki; Marconcin, Priscila; Loureiro, Vânia; Peralta, MiguelBackground Engaging in physical activity increases energy expenditure, reducing total body fat. Time spent in sedentary behaviours is associated with overweight and obesity, and adequate sleep duration is associated with improved body composition. This systematic review aimed to analyse the relationship between compliance with the 24-h movement guidelines and obesity indicators in toddlers, children and adolesc...
