Three weeks of GTE ingestion did not influenced SBP, DBP and HR but may be have a favorable effect on MAP and RPP responses to an acute RE during 1 h recovery of exercise.

Introduction: According to the previous studies, the balance is the important part of the success in the sports performance. Also, balance plays a great role in preventing sports injuries. So, Strengthening and improving balance functions to reduce injuries, costs of treatment and avoidance of competitions should be emphasized. So, The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of total resistance exercise on equilibrium functions of Futsal players. Methods: The present study was an experimental type with pretest and posttest design. The statistical population consisted of 24 qualified Futsal players that divided into equal groups in the intervention (12) and control (12) groups. The intervention group performed TRX training ones for six weeks in three sessions of 60 minutes per week. During the research, the control group performed their routine exercises. The dynamic equilibrium was evaluated by the star excursion balance Test before and 6 weeks after of exercise. Paired T and Independent t-test and were used for data analysis in Spss version 23. Result: According to the present research, the ability of the intervention group in performing the balance test was significantly improved. While these changes were not significant for the control group. Conclusion: TRX training seems to improve the futsal players balance performance and it is recommended that coaches and athletes use these exercises to improve their balance.

The anterior cruciate ligament is one of the most vulnerable knee ligaments. The biomechanical and neuromuscular differences of the trunk during sports activities are the main cause of non-collision injury. Therefore, the aim of the present research was to investigate the effect of six weeks selected core stability exercises on the jumping-landing pattern and trunk endurance in adolescent volleyball players with trunk defects. Methods: The present semi-experimental study with pre-test and post-test design was conducted on 65 adolescent volleyball players from Shiraz, of whom 22 athletes with trunk defects were selected during the initial screening. Available sampling was done and the subjects were randomly divided into the experimental (n=11, average age: 16.36±0.41 years, height: 1.74±0.02 m, and weight: 61.54± 3.12 kg) and control (n=11, average age: 16.18±0.50 years, height: 1.70± 0.02 m, and weight: 61.27 ±2.36 kg). The tuck jump test was used to assess the subjects' trunk defect. Core stability exercises were performed for six weeks, three days a week. To evaluate the jumping-landing pattern and trunk muscular endurance, the Landing Error Scoring System (LESS) and McGill protocol were used, respectively, and to analyze the results, the Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) and independent t-test at a significant level of P<0.05 were used. Results: A significant difference was observed in the jumping-landing pattern (P=0.001) and trunk muscular endurance (P=0.001) between the two control and experimental groups. Conclusion: The results of the present research showed that six weeks selected core stability exercises improved the jumping-landing pattern of adolescent volleyball players with trunk defects and also improved their trunk muscular endurance. Therefore, sports coaches are recommended to use the trunk defect screening test, as well as the core stability exercises protocols to prevent sports injuries in adolescent volleyball players.
