1. 1. Periodic Inhalation of Carbon Monoxide Prior to Repeated Sprint Training – a Nuanced Way for Improving Repeated Sprint Ability

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsa

   Author : Christoffer Sundqvist; [2022]
   Keywords : Endurance; Cycling; high-intensity interval training; Repeated sprint ability; Repeated sprint exercise; Carbon monoxide.;

   Abstract : Background: Repeated sprint training in hypoxia has shown to be superior to training in normoxia. However, both natural and simulated altitude training are strategies that are not always accessible and expensive due to traveling or the need for advanced equipment. READ MORE

3. 2. Resisted Sprint Training in Swimming : A Quasi-Experimental Study on Swedish National Level Swimmers

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för idrotts- och hälsovetenskap

   Author : Antonio Lutula; [2019]
   Keywords : swimming; sprint swimming; resisted sprint training; resisted swimming; anaerobic power; swim power; swim bench; 1080 sprint; 1080 motion; force velocity; biomechanics;

   Abstract : Aim The aim of this study was to ascertain the effect of resisted sprint training in swimming on maximal swimming velocity and performance characteristics. The aim was also to examine how maximal swimming velocity is related to maximal swim power and maximal dry-land power. READ MORE

4. 3. The effect of flywheel training on functional neuromuscular performance in physically active youth

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för idrotts- och hälsovetenskap

   Author : Niklas Westblad; [2018]
   Keywords : flywheel training youth resistance training peak height velocity;

   Abstract : Aim The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of flywheel resistance training on functional neuromuscular performance in physically active youth.   Method Forty-four healthy and physically active youth between 12-14 years of age (n=19 boys & n=25 girls) volunteered to participate and were randomized into three different groups of flywheel resistance training (FRT) (n=15, body mass = 42,9 ± 8,6 kg, time to Peak Height Velocity (PHV) = - 0,8 ± 1,6), traditional strength training (TST) (n=15, body mass = 44,7 ± 10,3 kg, time to PHV = - 0,8 ± 1,5) and a control group (CON) (n=14, body mass = 43,8 ± 9,0 kg, time to PHV- 0,8 ± 1,5.

5. 4. Very Heavy Resisted Sprinting: A Better Way to Improve Acceleration? : Effects of a 4-Week Very Heavy Resisted Sprinting Intervention on Acceleration, Sprint and Jump Performance in Youth Soccer Players

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för idrotts- och hälsovetenskap

   Author : Domen Bremec; [2018]
   Keywords : sprint; resisted sprinting; acceleration; jumping; speed; football; soccer;

   Abstract : Abstract Aim was to investigate the effects of heavy resisted and unresisted sprint training protocols and see its effects on sprint time, vertical and horizontal jumping and sprint mechanics. Youth male soccer players [n=27] participated in this study, they were all individually assessed for the horizontal force-velocity profile using two unresisted sprints and load-velocity profile using four progressively resisted sprints (25%, 50%, 75% and 100% body mass).

6. 5. Upper- & lower body strength and its correlation to performance in swimming

   University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

   Author : Julia Björk; [2018]
   Keywords : Swimming; 400m; 50m; freestyle; strength; lat-pulldown; squat; velocity;

   Abstract : Background: To learn how to swim with proper technique takes fairly large amount of time and practice to learn and anelite swimmer spends 6-7 days training for improving aerobic capacity, anaerobic capacity and strength training for energy saving technique. Freestyle is the fastest swimming style and is performed in many different distances, 50m is classified as a sprint and the 400m as a middle-distance. READ MORE
