Summary: This study aimed to measure the energy expenditure in taekwondo-specific high-intensity intermittent exercises. The results showed that taekwondo training has different contributions to aerobic and anaerobic metabolisms. This is important for designing training programs and adjusting exercise intensity for taekwondo athletes.

Summary: This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effects of Olympic combat sports interventions on health-related quality of life in adults aged 45 and older. The analysis of seven studies showed that Olympic combat sports interventions had positive effects on physical health, emotional well-being, and functional well-being, particularly in healthy participants, participants with Parkinson's disease, and participants with breast cancer.

Summary: This narrative review focuses on the estimation of energy system contributions during match simulations of different Olympic combat sports. The results showed that Olympic combat sports primarily rely on the oxidative system for energy, but key scoring actions are likely fueled by anaerobic pathways.

Summary: Weight cutting practice in combat sports does not affect short-duration repeated high-intensity-effort performance, but there is evidence suggesting that certain exercise performance outcomes may decline as a result of rapid weight loss. It is currently unclear whether these can be restored by recovery and weight gain.

Summary: This study introduces a highly accurate method for estimating human energy expenditure during exercise using wearable sensors and machine learning. The proposed estimation shows a correlation up to 0.976 with ground truth values, highlighting its potential for widespread use in fitness, healthcare, and sports performance monitoring.

Summary: This study examined the sport motivations among BJJ players and found that interest/enjoyment, competence, and fitness were the main motivators for participation, while appearance and social motivations were lower. Competitive BJJ players were significantly influenced by competence and interest/enjoyment motivators, regardless of their years of experience in the sport.

Summary: This systematic review analyzed the effects of Olympic combat sports on older adults' health, showing that OCS training can improve muscle strength, cardiorespiratory capacity, balance, and mental health in older adults. It suggests that older adults can benefit from participating in such training programs.

Summary: The study found that mixed martial arts intervention for boys with ASD significantly improved their social behaviors and reduced problematic social behaviors. Providing a social component with physical exercise is important for meeting the physical needs of children with ASD and potentially conferring social benefits as well.

Summary: The study showed that Kyusho Jitsu training had a positive impact on self-efficacy, fear, and depression in breast cancer survivors. The intervention group demonstrated significant improvements in self-efficacy, fear, and overall fear and depression scores. In conclusion, Kyusho Jitsu training is safe and feasible, serving as an important supplement in follow-up care for breast cancer survivors.

Summary: Abnormalities in muscle metaboreflex contribute to exercise intolerance and greater cardiovascular risk. Exercise training can benefit neurocardiovascular function, but the role of exercise in muscle metaboreflex adaptations remains controversial. Research suggests that metaboreflex adaptations depend on individual clinical status, exercise modality, and training duration, with most trials in healthy populations negating the hypothesis of metaboreflex improvement due to chronic exercise.

Summary: The study showed that IP significantly reduced mean arterial pressure during metaboreflex activation, likely due to a reduced end diastolic volume. MP was significantly higher during IP compared to SHAM treatment, while PPT showed no significant differences. MP remained unchanged during exercise but was significantly lower during PEMI following IP.

Summary: Mild exercise during acute moderate normobaric hypoxia does not induce significant changes in hemodynamics, although it can cause significant reductions in peripheral arterial oxygen saturation and cerebral oxygenation.
