Summary: This study aimed to identify the lowest concentration at which the properties of trehalose could be exploited. The results showed no differences in exercise performance in the later stages between the groups with concentrations of 8%, 6%, and 4% trehalose solution. Trehalose could be a useful option for making a new type of mixed carbohydrate solution.

Summary: This study compared the acute physiological, perceptual, and enjoyment responses between bodyweight high-intensity interval exercise (BW-HIIE) and treadmill running high-intensity interval exercise (RUN-HIIE). The results showed that BW-HIIE elicited higher oxygen consumption, blood lactate, heart rate, and rating of perceived exertion compared to RUN-HIIE, while the physical activity enjoyment was similar between the two exercises.

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: The study demonstrates that the nanoparticle antioxidant RNP can significantly improve exercise performance in rats, increasing their all-out running time, while the use of low molecular weight antioxidants reduces running time and leads to a decrease in red blood cell count and an increase in oxidative stress.

Summary: High caloric intake and physical inactivity are known precursors to chronic metabolic diseases. High Intensity Intermittent Exercise (HIIE) and Intermittent Fasting (IF) can attenuate their negative effects by improving metabolism. In a study on rats, the combined effect of HIIE and IF showed improved performance and modified white adipose tissue metabolism through the browning process.

Summary: The study shows that high-intensity interval training promotes cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and interstitial fibrosis in healthy rat myocardium, while also modulating the apoptosis signaling pathway. Conversely, intermittent fasting reduces cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, collagen interstitial fraction, and pro-apoptotic protein expression, and increases antiapoptotic protein expression.

Summary: This research examined the effects of single-dose molecular hydrogen (H-2) supplements on acid-base status, muscle deoxygenation, and recovery. The results showed that the HCP group had higher PCO2 and HCO3- concentrations at rest, and during exercise, they exhibited higher peak power and muscle deoxygenation concentration.

Summary: This study demonstrated that performing a high-intensity intermittent exercise (HIIE) session on sand surface results in higher physiological stress compared to HIIE on grass surface, as evidenced by increased oxygen uptake, heart rate, rating of perceived exertion, and blood lactate concentration.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of exercise on melanoma growth and metastasis, revealing that exercise can decrease metastatic spread and inhibit melanoma progression through systemic metabolic reprogramming. The study also discovers a direct link between metabolic reprogramming and mTOR signaling, providing novel opportunities for therapeutic intervention.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate whether short-term lower-body immersion in cold water could cause acute changes in neuromuscular fatigue after high-intensity exercise. The results showed that although there was a decrease in maximal voluntary contraction, the level of neuromuscular fatigue did not significantly change.

Summary: This study estimated the changes in plasma volume (PV) in response to common exercise modalities (cycling and running) as well as adrenaline infusion and control at rest. The results showed that PV decreased after moderate-high intensity cycling and running, and adrenaline infusion mimicked the PV change observed during exercise. This suggests a separate influence of autonomic control on blood volume homeostasis. Consideration of PV changes could be relevant when reporting plasma/serum constituents measured during exercise, but further research is needed to confirm this.

Summary: High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is a common method used to improve athletic performance, aid in rehabilitation, and prevent diseases. However, research suggests that exceeding a certain limit of HIIT might have detrimental effects on metabolic health.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the physical performance of elite female football players during match play, particularly analyzing differences between different playing positions. Results showed significant differences in distances covered and peak running speeds between wide and central players, highlighting the importance of considering these factors when designing training programs for female football players. Additionally, transient reductions in physical performance were observed following 1- and 5-min univariate peak periods, suggesting the need to incorporate speed endurance activities in training to prepare for the demands of match play.

Summary: Reliable talent identification and selection processes are necessary for accurately choosing young athletes with potential for talent development programs. This study aimed to assess the agreement among talent scouts in ranking under-11 male youth football players and explore their approaches to assessing talent. The results showed disagreement in the rankings among the scouts, indicating the need for a more structured process in talent identification. Future research should focus on developing guidelines incorporating independently evaluated sub-predictors to improve the reliability of talent identification.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of three different inspiratory muscle warm-up (IMW) loads using a shorter protocol on mechanical, physiological and muscle oxygenation responses during and after high-intensity running exercise. The results showed that IMW loads can enhance running power and force, but did not significantly improve performance assessed second by second. In addition, 40% of maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) improved tissue saturation index (TSI) of the biceps brachii (BB) during the recovery phase.

Summary: The study found that The Daily Mile did not significantly affect children's cognition, but may improve accuracy in visual working memory and inhibitory control to some extent. Children enjoyed participating in The Daily Mile due to its outdoor location, social context, and self-paced nature, but some found it boring because of its repetitive nature.

Summary: Prior self-control exertion has a significant negative effect on subsequent physical performance, with initial perceptions of pain and self-efficacy playing important roles in this effect. Therefore, interventions targeting these mechanisms could be beneficial in mitigating the effects of self-control exertion on subsequent physical performance.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the associations between self-control and physical activity, physical fitness, and adiposity in young people. The results showed that higher levels of self-control were associated with better physical fitness and lower levels of adiposity in adolescents. There was also a tendency for a positive association between self-control and vigorous physical activity and waist circumference.
