Effects of Sport-Specific Training during the Early Stages of Long-Term Athlete Development on Physical Fitness, Body Composition, Cognitive, and Academic Performances

Abstract: Introduction: Several sports demand an early start into long-term athlete development (LTAD) because peak performances are achieved at a relatively young age (e.g., gymnastics). However, the challenging combination of high training volumes and academic demands may impede youth athletes' cognitive and academic performances. Thus, the aims of this study were to examine the effects of a 1-year sport-specific training and/or physical education on physical fitness, body composition, cognitive and academic performan… Show more

“…There are wide range of studies reporting that physical activity level is a good indicator of better body composition and physical fitness capacity (Çetin et al, 2018;Janssen et al, 2010;Granacher and Borde, 2017;Polat and Gunay, 2016;Vanttinen et al, 2011;Ara et al, 2004;Ara et al, 2007).…”

“…For example, Granacher and Borde (2017), examined the physical fitness and body composition among prepubertal children. They reported that participants in the elite sports class had a lower BMI (22%), lower body fat mass (14%), and more relative skeletal muscle mass (6%) than those of the control group.…”
