Camic, CL, Housh, TJ, Weir, JP, Zuniga, JM, Hendrix, CR, Mielke, M, Johnson, GO, Housh, DJ, and Schmidt, RJ. Influences of body-size variables on age-related increases in isokinetic peak torque in young wrestlers. J Strength Cond Res 23(x): 000-000, 2009-The purposes of the present study were to determine the patterns of age-related changes in 1) height (HT), body weight (BW), fat-free weight (FFW), and absolute isokinetic peak torque (PT); and 2) isokinetic PT covaried separately for HT, BW, FFW, and HT and BW combined in young wrestlers. One hundred twenty-five male wrestlers (mean age +/- SD = 14.3 +/- 2.4 yr; range = 11.1-18.2 yr) volunteered to perform concentric, isokinetic leg extension and flexion at 180 degrees .s on a Cybex II dynamometer to measure PT as well as underwater weighing to determine FFW. The polynomial regression analyses indicated there were significant quadratic increases across age for HT (R = 0.62), BW (R = 0.56), and FFW (R = 0.47). For leg extension, there were significant increases across age for absolute PT (quadratic, R = 0.66), PT covaried for HT (linear, r = 0.10), PT covaried for BW (linear, r = 0.12), PT covaried for FFW (quadratic, R = 0.32), and PT covaried for HT and BW combined (quadratic, R = 0.11). For leg flexion, there were significant increases across age for absolute PT (linear, r = 0.59), PT covaried for HT (linear, r = 0.07), PT covaried for BW (linear, r = 0.08), PT covaried for FFW (quadratic, R = 0.23), and PT covaried for BW and HT combined (linear, r = 0.03). The results of this study indicated that age-related increases in leg-extension and flexion PT for the current sample of young wrestlers could not be accounted for by changes in HT, BW, FFW, or HT and BW combined. These findings suggested that neural maturation may contribute to increases in leg strength across age in young wrestlers.

Resumo aborda nova técnica para tratamento de lesões auriculares

Am J Otolaryngol. 2010 Jan-Feb;31(1):21-4. Epub 2009 Mar 26.

A novel technique for treating auricular hematomas in mixed martial artists (ultimate fighters).
Roy S, Smith LP.

Department of Otolaryngology, Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine, University of Miami, Miami, FL 33136, USA. sohamroy0@gmail.com

PURPOSE: This study aimed to describe a "bolsterless" technique for managing auricular hematomas in professional fighters. METHODS: Eight auricular hematomas were drained under local anesthesia by incising along an anatomical auricular crease. After evacuation of the hematoma and copious irrigation, the resultant skin flap was replaced in anatomical position, and through-and-through absorbable mattress sutures were used to secure the flap in place. Incision sites were left open and dressed with antimicrobial ointment. No bolsters were placed. The patients were given 1 week of oral antibiotic therapy. RESULTS: All 8 hematomas resolved without further intervention. All 8 ears returned to their preinjury cosmetic state. Fighters were able to return to training within a week of the initial injury. No postoperative infections or other complications were noted. CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to wrestlers, mixed martial artists (also called "ultimate fighters") do not routinely wear protective head gear. As a result, they are at increased risk of recurrent auricular hematomas, often resulting in severe auricular deformities (cauliflower ear). These patients are anxious to return to training and fighting, and are reluctant to wear a bolster after repair. At their urging, we agreed to attempt this bolsterless technique. Although 2 patients in this series already had a significant cauliflower ear before being treated for the current hematoma, in all cases the auricle returned to its preinjury condition. Bolsterless treatment using mattress sutures and cosmetically placed incisions represents a successful technique for management of auricular hematomas in this population.

Vale ressaltar que esse é o primeiro grande levantamento sobre a prevalência, magnitude e métodos de "perda de peso" entre atletas de judô. Os resultados têm implicações diretas em estratégias para combater esses procedimentos.

PURPOSE:: To identify the prevalence, magnitude and methods of rapid weight loss among judo competitors. METHODS:: Athletes (607 males and 215 females; age: 19.3+/-5.3 years; weight: 70+/-7.5 kg; height: 170.6+/-9.8 cm) completed a previously validated questionnaire developed to evaluate rapid weight loss in judo athletes, which provides a score. The higher the score obtained, the more aggressive the weight loss behaviors. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and frequency analyses. Mean scores obtained in the questionnaire were used to compare specific groups of athletes using, when appropriate, Mann-Whitney U test or GLM one-way ANOVA followed by Tamhane post-hoc test. RESULTS: Eighty-six percent of athletes reported that have already lost weight to compete. When heavyweights are excluded, this percentage rises to 89%. Most athletes reported reductions of up to 5% of body weight (mean+/-SD: 2.5+/-2.3%). The most weight ever lost was 2-5% while a great part of athletes reported reductions of 5-10% (mean+/-SD: 6+/-4%). The number of reductions underwent in a season was 3+/-5. The reductions usually occurred within 7+/-7 days. Athletes began cutting weight at 12.6+/-6.1 years. No significant differences were found in the score obtained by male vs female athletes as well as by athletes from different weight classes. Elite athletes scored significantly higher in the questionnaire than non-elite. Athletes who began cutting weight earlier also scored higher than those who began later. CONCLUSION:: Rapid weight loss is highly prevalent in judo competitors. The level of aggressiveness in weight management behaviors appears to not be influenced by the gender or by the weight class but it seems to be influenced by competitive level and by the age at which athletes began cutting weight.

Lesões em crianças praticantes de judô

Estudo francês analisa os principais tipos e fatores associados às lesões em crianças praticantes de judô.

Judo injuries in children.
[Article in French]

AIMS: Analyze the epidemiology and the distribution of judo injuries in a pediatric population. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted from May 2006 to May 2008, including all patients aged less than 15 years admitted to a tertiary-level pediatric emergency unit. The data collected were age, sex, geographic origin, time and day of admission, duration in the pediatric emergency department, body weight, type and location of injuries, and progression. For statistical analysis, data were entered in Microsoft Excel tables. In the descriptive analysis, data are presented as mean values with SD. To compare qualitative variables, a chi(2) test was used and the two-tailed Fisher exact test if the expected value was lesser or equal to 5. Statistical significance was considered at P<0.05. RESULTS: During the study period, 173 patients were included, with a male:female ratio of 2.46. The mean age was 10.6+/-2.4 years. Most children were admitted during the weekend (59 %). The distribution of lesions was contusions (44 %), fractures (31 %), sprains (19 %), dislocations (3 %), and wounds (3 %). The upper extremities were more frequently affected than the lower extremities (46 % vs. 25 %), with a significant male prevalence (78 %) (P<0.0001), dominated by fractures (54 %), especially clavicle fractures (72 %). Compared to the other injuries, the male population had a significantly higher risk of fractures (P=0.04). Thirteen children required hospitalization for surgical repair of fractures. CONCLUSION: Frequent and often benign, judo accidents in children are different from adult injuries in their mechanisms and injury distribution. There is also an additional risk of growth plate damage. Risk factors have been attributed to an increased injury incidence: body weight loss over 5 % or overweight, age and judo experience, and male gender. During competition and training sessions, the evaluation and prevention of these factors could decrease the occurrence of such injuries.

Chaouachi, A, Coutts, AJ, Chamari, K,Wong, DP, Chaouachi, M, Chtara, M, Roky, R, and Amri, M. Effect of ramadan intermittent fasting on aerobic and anaerobic performance and perception of fatigue in male elite judo athletes. J Strength Cond Res 23(x): 000–000, 2009—The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of the Ramadan intermittent fast (RIF) on aerobic and anaerobic exercise performance in elite judo athletes (Judokas) maintaining their usual training loads. Physical performance tests (squat jump [SJ]), countermovement jump [CMJ], 30-second repeated jump, 30-m sprint, and the multistage fitness test) and fatigue scores were measured in 15 elite Judokas on 4 occasions: before Ramadan (T1), at the beginning of Ramadan (T2), at the end of Ramadan (T3) and 3 weeks after Ramadan. Results showed that 30-m sprint performance, multistage shuttle run test, SJ, and CMJ did not change during Ramadan. However, average power during the 30-second repeated jump test was slightly lower at the end of Ramadan (22.4 6 2.3 W/kg; P , 0.05) than before Ramadan (23.4 6 2.3 W/kg). There was a minor reduction of 1.3 kg in body mass and an increase in total fatigue scores (T2, 19 6 5; T3, 16 6 4; both P , 0.05) during Ramadan in comparison with the control period (T1, 12 6 3). These results show that the RIF has little effect on aerobic performance and on very short duration sprinting and jumping test performance in elite Judokas. Additionally, experienced athletes can maintain both sufficient energy intake and normal training loads during the RIF. The slight reduction in the 30-second jump test may be associated with reduced central drive and body mass. Collectively, these results suggest that the RIF has little effect on the performance of experienced Judokas, but Muslim athletes who train during the RIF should carefully periodize their training load and monitor their food intake and fatigue levels to avoid performance decrements.

Infâncias de Flávio Canto e Natália Falavigna são retratadas em coleção do COB

COB Cultural lança 'Manual do Pequeno Atleta'


A obra revela as histórias de infância de 18 dos maiores ídolos do esporte nacional - que nunca tinham sido reunidas em um mesmo livro - e desvenda como cada um se descobriu atleta. César Cielo, Zico, Oscar, Guga, Gustavo Borges, Diego Hypólito, Flávio Canto, Maurren Maggi, Claudinei Quirino, Janeth, Fernando Meligeni, Luisa Parente, Emanuel, Tande, Paula Pequeno, Bruno Souza, Meg e Natália Falavigna formam a seleção de craques do Manual do pequeno atleta, mais recente lançamento do Selo COB Cultural, parceria do Comitê Olímpico Brasileiro com a editora Casa da Palavra.

"É fundamental despertar nos jovens a vontade de ler, de manusear um livro. Nessa idade em que os jovens costumam ter mais contato com livros didáticos, um livro que não trata especificamente de assuntos escolares é algo muito atraente e também educa. O interessante no Manual do Pequeno Atleta é que as crianças veem que todos os atletas retratados no livros têm semelhanças com eles. Isso os incentiva a iniciar na prática esportiva", comentou a diretora cultural do Comitê Olímpico Brasileiro, Christiane Paquelet.

Escrito por Rosane Araújo, com colaboração de Silvia Marta Vieira e ilustrado por Axel Sande, o Manual do pequeno atleta conta a história dos personagens da turma do Tico, um grupo de crianças moradoras de um mesmo bairro que descobrem uma quadra de esportes abandonada e partem para uma "investigação" do que já aconteceu naquele espaço. A partir daí, a obra mistura ficção com realidade ao promover uma interação entre os personagens da turma do Tico com atletas de verdade e suas histórias. As crianças vão ao encontro desses atletas e são as mediadoras e condutoras das lembranças de infância. Assim, aprendem as curiosidades da vida de cada um, dicas de exercícios, truques e como levar uma vida mais saudável através da prática de esportes e uma boa alimentação.

"A ideia do Manual do Pequeno Atleta surgiu há oito anos. No começo eram apenas seis atletas entrevistados, mas o projeto cresceu e acabou com 18 participantes. Esta é a primeira publicação esportiva de forma biográfica feita para crianças. O livro procura mostrar a riqueza das histórias desses atletas, com todas as dificuldades que eles passaram quando crianças. Essas experiências demonstram que eles eram pessoas comuns na juventude e servem de inspiração para a formação de novos atletas. São lições não só para a prática esportiva, mas também para uma vida saudável", disse Rosane Araujo, autora do livro.

Engana-se quem pensa que o Manual do pequeno atleta é voltado apenas para o público infanto-juvenil. Com uma linguagem divertida voltada para todas as idades, o livro possui os elementos necessários para agradar a família inteira.

Criado em 2005, numa parceria entre o COB e a Editora Casa da Palavra, o Selo COB Cultural tem como objetivo incrementar o mercado editorial esportivo e desenvolver uma cultura esportiva no Brasil, eternizar documentos da história olímpica brasileira.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the cumulative effects of prolonged intensive training and rapid weight loss on immunological parameters and anti-oxidation activity of elite male Taiwanese Taekwondo athletes. DESIGN: Sixteen elite male Taekwondo athletes (ages: 21.6 (1.3) years of age, Ht 173.7 (5.5) cm) volunteered to participate in this study. Beginning at 30 days prior to a national competition, saliva samples were obtained over a seven-week training, competition and post-competition period. Levels of salivary IgA, cortisol, lactoferrin and FRSA were measured at 30-day, 14-day, 7-day, and 1-day pre-competition and 1-day, 7-day, 19-day post-competition. Body weight and body fat were also recorded. RESULTS: Mean body weight was notably decreased during the week immediately before competition. Results reveal that the levels of salivary IgA were differentially regulated during the training, competition and recovery period; while the salivary cortisol and lactoferrin concentrations and FRSA were not appreciably affected during the training and competition period. Furthermore, the results of URTI incidence indicate that following the decreases of mucosal immunity, the risk of acquiring infection was significantly increased. CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrated that mucosal immunity in elite male TKD athletes is modulated by exercise and rapid weight reduction during the training, competition and recovery period. Cumulative effects of prolonged intensive training and rapid weight reduction suppressed mucosal immunity. Furthermore, due to the inverted exclamation mark yenopen window inverted exclamation mark of impaired immunity during the pre-competition period, the incidence of URTI was significantly increased after competition.

Jogo limpo nas disputas e em atividades diárias

Estudo do Josepheson Institute investigou as atitudes de atletas do ensino médio americano quanto a ações relacionadas ao desempenho em modalidades esportivas e quanto ao cotidiano. Das lutas, apenas o wrestling foi analisado. Em linhas gerais os lutadores se comportam de forma muito similar à média dos estudantes analisados. De negativo, tendem a utilizar mais insultos de cunho discriminatório racial, consideram normal o treinador pedir para atacar um segmento lesionado do oponente.
Uma adaptação desse material com questões direcionadas às L/AM/MEC pode ser bem interessante para discutir a influência dessas atividades nas atitudes dos praticantes.

A Influência do Zen Budismo nas Artes Marciais Japonesas no Brasil
Nessa dissertação procurou-se contextualizar as transformações ocorridas, ao longo de períodos específicos da história japonesa, dos conteúdos de natureza religiosos e marciais, pertencentes ao universo da arte marcial japonesa praticada no Brasil. O conjunto das artes marciais japonesa é denominado BUDO (Caminho das Artes da Guerra) e a arte marcial específica pesquisada, foi o Kendo (Caminho da Espada). A significativa importância de termos escolhido esta modalidade em relação às demais artes marciais orientais presentes no Brasil se refere à coexistência de aspectos históricos, étnicos e religiosos, que aparentemente, introduzem na cultura brasileira, pressupostos éticos, morais da religião ensinada por Buda Gautama. Por meio da pesquisa empírica ocupamo-nos de investigar algumas das manifestações do universo não-corporal do Kendo a partir de entrevistas com praticantes da modalidade divididos em dois grupos, de acordo com a graduação oficial, regulamentada internacionalmente. As informações obtidas permitiram concluir que, o entendimento filosófico, ético e religioso do Kendo vem adquirindo características cada vez mais locais.

Artigo sobre recuperação entre as lutas de judô

Artigo do nosso grupo no European Journal of Applied Physiology de novembro

Effects of recovery type after a judo match on blood lactate and performance in specific and non-specific judo tasks
Emerson Franchini ; Rômulo Cássio de Moraes Bertuzzi; Monica Yuri Takito; Maria A. P. D. M. Kiss
Eur J Appl Physiol (2009) 107:377–383
DOI 10.1007/s00421-009-1134-2

Abstract The objective of the present study was to verify if active recovery (AR) applied after a judo match resulted in a better performance when compared to passive recovery (PR) in three tasks varying in specificity to the judo and in measurement of work performed: four upper-body Wingate tests (WT); special judo fitness test (SJFT); another match. For this purpose, three studies were conducted. Sixteen highly trained judo athletes took part in study 1, 9 in study 2, and 12 in study 3. During AR judokas ran (15 min) at the velocity corresponding to 70% of 4 mmol l-1 blood lactate intensity (~50%VO2 peak), while during PR they stayed seated at the competition area. The results indicated that the minimal recovery time reported in judo competitions (15 min) is long enough for sufficient recovery of WT performance and in a specific high-intensity test (SJFT). However, the odds ratio of winning a match increased ten times when a judoka performed AR and his opponent performed PR, but the cause of this phenomenon cannot be explained by changes in number of actions performed or by changes in match’s time structure.

J Strength Cond Res 23(x): 000-000, 2009

The purpose of the present investigation was to describe the physiological profile of elite Iranian junior freestyle wrestlers. Seventy elite wrestlers (age 19.8 +/- 0.9 years) who were invited to the national training camps, based on their top 10 national ranking, participated in this study. The physiological profile included body weight, flexibility (sit and reach test), maximal oxygen consumption (Bruce protocol), maximal anaerobic power of the legs (Wingate test), muscular endurance and strength (bench press, squat, pull-ups, push-ups, grip strength, and bent-knee sit-up test), speed (40-m sprint), agility (4 x 9-m shuttle run), and body composition (7-site skinfold). The major results (mean +/- SD) are as follows: body weight (kg): 77.5 +/- 19.8; flexibility (cm): 38.2 +/- 3.94; maximal oxygen consumption (ml.kg.min): 50.5 +/- 4.7; maximal anaerobic power of the legs (W): 455.5 +/- 87.6; 1-repetition maximum bench press (weight lifted kg body weight): 1.4 +/- 0.15; 1-repetition maximum squat (weight lifted kg body weight): 1.7 +/- 0.2; push-ups (n): 66.9 +/- 7.6; pull-ups (n): 31.6 +/- 9.7; grip strength (force in kg.body weight kg) 1.02 +/- 0.11; bent-knee sit-ups (n): 66.5 +/- 8; speed (s): 5.07 +/- 0.17; agility (s): 8.7 +/- 0.25; and body fat (%): 10.6 +/- 3.8. The present study provides baseline physiological data that have been used in the prescription of individual training programs for these athletes. This information is also available to the coaches and can contribute to the general strategy employed by a wrestler and for a specific match.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of three different drinks (commercially formulated water, bottled water, and a carbohydrate-electrolyte beverage) on blood and urinary markers of hydration after acute dehydration in collegiate wrestlers. Twenty-one athletes were recruited to perform a randomized, crossover study comparing the effectiveness of commercially formulated water, carbohydrate-electrolyte (6% or 60 g.L), or regular bottled water (placebo) in promoting rehydration after a 3% reduction in body mass. Urine specific gravity (Usg), urine osmolarity (Uosm), plasma osmolarity (Posm), and plasma volume were measured pre- and post-dehydration and at 1 hour after rehydration. Statistical analyses used a 3 (conditions) x 3 (times) repeated measures analysis of variance. Significant (p < 0.01) interactions were found for Posm, Uosm, and Usg. Posm returned to baseline levels and Uosm remained in a lower balance after 1 hour of rehydration in the trials of the commercially formulated water and regular bottled water. No significant interactions were found for plasma volume shift. The findings of this study demonstrate that the commercially formulated water was no more effective in promoting rehydration than either a carbohydrate-electrolyte solution or plain water in collegiate wrestlers after a 3% reduction in body mass and a rehydration period of 1 hour when consuming 100% of their body weight loss.

The goal was to compare values of force, precision, and reaction time of several martial arts punches and palm strikes performed by advanced and intermediate Kung Fu practitioners, both men and women. 13 Kung Fu practitioners, 10 men and three women, participated. Only the men, three advanced and seven intermediate, were considered for comparisons between levels. Reaction time values were obtained using two high speed cameras that recorded each strike at 2500 Hz. Force of impact was measured by a load cell. For comparisons of groups, force data were normalized by participant's body mass and height. Precision of the strikes was determined by a high speed pressure sensor. The results show that palm strikes were stronger than punches. Women in the study presented, on average, lower values of reaction time and force but higher values of precision than men. Advanced participants presented higher forces than intermediate participants. Significant negative correlations between the values of force and precision and the values of force and reaction time were also found.

Martial arts as a mental health intervention for children? Evidence from the ECLS-K.
Strayhorn JM, Strayhorn JC.
Child Adolesc Psychiatry Ment Health. 2009 Oct 14;3(1):32. [Epub ahead of print]

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Martial arts studios for children market their services as providing mental health outcomes such as self-esteem, self-confidence, concentration, and self-discipline. It appears that many parents enroll their children in martial arts in hopes of obtaining such outcomes. The current study used the data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten class of 1998-1999, to assess the effects of martial arts upon such outcomes as rated by classroom teachers. METHODS: The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study used a multistage probability sampling design to gather a sample representative of U.S. children attending kindergarten beginning 1998. We made use of data collected in the kindergarten, 3rd grade, and 5th grade years. Classroom behavior was measured by a rating scale completed by teachers; participation in martial arts was assessed as part of a parent interview. The four possible combinations of participation and nonparticipation in martial arts at time 1 and time 2 for each analysis were coded into three dichotomous variables; the set of three variables constituted the measure of participation studied through regression. Multiple regression was used to estimate the association between martial arts participation and change in classroom behavior from one measurement occasion to the next. The change from kindergarten to third grade was studied as a function of martial arts participation, and the analysis was replicated studying behavior change from third grade to fifth grade. Cohen's f;2 effect sizes were derived from these regressions. RESULTS: The martial arts variable failed to show a statistically significant effect on behavior, in either of the regression analyses; in fact, the f;2 effect size for martial arts was 0.000 for both analyses. The 95% confidence intervals for regression coefficients for martial arts variables have upper and lower bounds that are all close to zero. The analyses not only fail to reject the null hypothesis, but also render unlikely a population effect size that differs greatly from zero. CONCLUSIONS: The data from the ECLS-K fail to support enrolling children in martial arts to improve mental health outcomes as measured by classroom teachers.

Peak torques values at 60 and 180°/s were nonsignificantly lower in the taped condition (p > 0.05). Ankle taping resulted also is a significant reduction in jump height (p <>

Estudo sobre demanda de mercado de escolas de taekwondo

Dimensions of Market Demand Associated with Taekwondo Schools inNorth America: Development of a Scale
Min Kil Kim *, James J. Zhang, Yong Jae Ko
University of Florida, United States
Sport Management Review 12 (2009) 149–166

Since the introduction of martial arts in the United States, the sport of Taekwondo (TKD) has rapidly grown and developed. Although the elevated interest in this sport has increased the magnitude of the TKD market, no systematic studies have been conducted to investigate the market demand variables associated with TKD schools in North America. To a great extent, lack of study has been due to the unavailability of a viable measure. The purpose of this study was to identify the dimensions of market demand for TKD schools and develop the Scale of Market Demand Associated with Taekwondo School (SMD-TKD). Research participants (N = 205) were TKD school members who were 18 years and older from 22 TKD schools in major cities of Florida. A factor analysis using principal component extraction and varimax rotation produced six factors with 51 items returned (i.e., Personal Benefits, School Operation, Instruction Quality, Program Offering, Locker Room, and Cultural Learning). Multiples regression analysis revealed that all market demand factors, except for Program Offering and Cultural Learning, were positively (p < .05) predictive of TKD consumption, suggesting that the SMD-TKD is useful for marketing studies on TKD consumers.

Experimental animal studies have shown that physical exercise, associated with planning and execution of complex movements, are related to changes in brain structure. In humans, changes in cortical tissue density in relation to physical activity are yet to be fully determined and quantified. We investigated differences on gray matter volume in judo players by using voxel-based morphometry. Comparison between a group of eight internationally competitive judo players and a group of 18 healthy controls showed a significantly higher gray matter tissue density in brain areas of judo players.

Proposal
Taekwondo Interest Group
Following the formation of the International Association of Judo Researchers in 2006, the ACSM Combat Sports Interest Group in 2007 and the International Network of Wrestling Researchers earlier this year, we would like to propose a Taekwondo Interest Group. We believe that such an organization can provide much-needed scientific support to our sport. It will also enable us to collaborate and advance knowledge in a more streamlined manner than would otherwise be achievable. Similar to other scientific organizations, we anticipate a regular international scientific meeting that brings together a larger group than was hitherto possible. For instance, at one point in time, one of us (WP) was invited to be a speaker at three different international scientific meetings that all claimed to be the first international taekwondo conference or symposium.

A specialized interest group will also make it possible to create a database of taekwondo-related research publications for open access. As we have all experienced in one way or another, there is currently limited access to places where we can search for scientific or scholarly articles on taekwondo. The continuation of this resource would be a plus for the development and expansion of taekwondo around the world. It would also be a valuable resource providing important, practical information to teachers, coaches, referees, officials, athletes, and administrators.

Aims
The aims of the Taekwondo Interest Group are to facilitate the development of taekwondo through international cooperation and to support taekwondo-related research and education.

Proposed Objectives are to
♦Identify taekwondo researchers and scientists around the world.
♦Create opportunities for researchers to connect and share ideas through a communication
network.
♦Improve the availability of research-related sources.
♦Encourage and support taekwondo-related educational activities.
♦Support and facilitate taekwondo teaching and coaching methods.
♦Work collaboratively and explore partnerships with other organizations and programs that
may benefit from the intellectual resources of the Taekwondo Interest Group.
♦Encourage and support taekwondo-related activities between students and researchers.

Registration
Interested individuals are requested to complete an application form containing contact details and research interests (see below). We are sharing this proposal with our network of contacts throughout the world and hope that they, in turn, will share it with their colleagues and other appropriate scholars.

Membership is open to those who have a major qualification in an academic discipline and who show evidence of interest in taekwondo-related research. Undergraduate and graduate students who are studying or carrying out research in the area of taekwondo are also encouraged to register.

Mestrado e Doutorado com projetos na área de lutas, artes marciais e modalidades esportivas de combate

Atualmente, um dos principais focos do nosso grupo de estudos e pesquisas é preparar as pessoas para o ingresso no mestrado ou doutorado.
Por enquanto e talvez por um longo período sou o único a orientar especificamente com essa temática no programa aqui da EEFE-USP. Contudo, o número de vagas é limitado: seis por orientador. É exatamente esse o número de orientandos que tenho no momento. Até o início do próximo ano uma dessas pessoas (Bianca Miarka) termina o mestrado e deve ingressar no doutorado. Os demais devem terminar até o final de 2010. Portanto, novos ingressantes apenas para o início de 2011.
Quais os critérios para ingresso?
Além dos critérios oficiais do programa de pós-graduação da EEFE (http://www.usp.br/eef/ingresso_pos.php), tenho como condição, que a pessoa já tenha realizado alguma produção junto ao grupo. O(a) candidato(a) com melhor produção terá prioridade quanto ao ingresso.
A ideia básica é estabelecer o mérito como principal aspecto para o ingresso, bem como seguir o que meu companheiro de sala (Luiz Dantas) tem afirmado constantemente: "A pessoa não entra no mestrado para começar a fazer pesquisa, mas por realizar pesquisa é que a pessoa tem a possibilidade de fazer o mestrado".
Adicionalmente, durante o processo de elaboração desses trabalhos prévios, é possível para os dois lados interessados (orientador e orientando) verificar se existe compatibilidade para realização de trabalhos em conjunto.

Artigo sobre ensino médico no Brasil

No título, substitua por "Preparação profissional em Educação Física" e ao final do texto, substitua o termo hospital por academia/clube ou médico por profissional de educação física e o resultado é muito parecido.

Age-Related Patterns of Anthropometric Characteristics in Young Wrestlers

ABSTRACT
CAMIC, C. L., T. J. HOUSH, M. MIELKE, C. R. HENDRIX, J. M. ZUNIGA, G. 0. JOHNSON, D. J. HOUSH, and R. J. SCHMIDT.
Age-Related Patterns of Anthropometric Characteristics in Young Wrestlers. Med. Sci. Sports Exerc., Vol. 41, No. 5, pp. 1014-1019, 2009. Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to compare the age-related patterns of anthropometric characteristics in young wrestlers (8-13 yr) to those of a national representative sample of boys the same age. Methods: Two hundred and fifty-three young wrestlers (Xage ±- SD, 11.1 ± 1.6 yr; height (HT), 145.5 + 11.4 cm; body weight (BW), 40.7 + 10.9 kg) volunteered as subjects in the present study. The sample of young wrestlers was divided into six independent age groups: age group 8 (AG8), 8.00-8.99 yr (n = 27); AG9, 9.00-9.99 yr (n = 43); AGIO, 10.00-10.99 yr (n = 50); AGI 1, 11.00-11.99 yr (n = 45); AG12, 12.00-12.99 yr (n = 56); and AG13, 13.00-13.99 yr (n = 32). Nine variables including BW, HT, body mass index (BMI), subscapular and triceps skinfolds, waist, midarm, maximal calf, and midthigh circumferences were assessed on each subject. Results: The results showed that there was only one (midthigh circumference) difference between the young wrestlers and the national sample for yearly changes in the anthropometric dimensions. Discussion: These findings indicated that participation in age group wrestling was not associated with age-related patterns of anthropometric characteristics that were different from those of a national representative sample of boys the same age.

Changes in Body Weight, Body Composition, and Eating Attitudes in High School Wrestlers
Lenka Humenikova Shriver, Nancy Mulhollen Betts, and Mark Edward Payton

Background: Many wrestlers engage in chronic dieting and rapid “weight cutting” throughout the year to compete in a category below their natural weight. Such weightmanagement practices have a negative influence on their health and nutritional status, so the National Wrestling Coaches Association implemented a new weight-management program for high school wrestlers in 2006. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine whether seasonal changes in weight, body fat, and eating attitudes occur among high school wrestlers after the implementation of the new weight-management rule. Methods: Fifteen high school wrestlers participated in the study. Their weight, body composition, and eating attitudes were measured preseason, in-season, and off-season. Body fat was assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Attitudes toward dieting, food, and body weight were assessed using the Eating Attitude Test (EAT). Results: No significant changes in body fat were detected from preseason to off-season. Weight increased from preseason to in-season (p < .05) and off-season (p < .05). Although the EAT score did not change significantly from preseason to offseason, 60% reported “thinking about burning up calories when exercising” during preseason, and only 40% felt that way during the season (p < .05) and 47% during off-season (p < .05). Conclusions: The wrestlers experienced a significant weight gain from preseason to off-season with no significant changes in body fat. Their eating attitudes did not change significantly from preseason to off-season in this study, but further research using a large sample of high school wrestlers is warranted to confirm these findings.

In the Olympic sport of Taekwondo (TKD), elastic resistance training (ERT) is often used with the aim of improving kicking performance; however, the efficacy of this has never been examined experimentally. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a TKD-specific, progressive ERT protocol on the velocity of the TKD turning kick. Twelve TKD athletes were randomly allocated to receive either a 4-week intervention of ERT plus usual TKD training (n = 6) or to a control group receiving 4 weeks of usual TKD training only. Kicking velocity from initiation to impact on a target was measured pre- and postintervention using a digital timer and two pressure switches. Kicking velocity improved significantly (by 7%) in the ERT group, whereas there was no improvement in the control group (p < 0.05). These data suggest that ERT is a feasible means of sport-specific resistance training for TKD and that TKD performance could benefit from an improved velocity of the attacking turning kick.

The aim of this study was to develop a questionnaire to evaluate rapid weight loss patterns of competitive judo players and to assess its validity and reliability. We evaluated the reliability (n=94), content validity (evaluation by 10 experts), discriminant validity (differences in scores between athletes with body weight below and above their weight class; n=100) and convergent validity (correlation with Restraint Scale; n=60). No item was considered unclear or ambiguous by more than 20% of the experts. The intraclass Coefficient Correlation was above 0.90 for all questions whose answers were parametric (P<0.001; n="94)" n="94">80%; Spearman's Correlation between the Restraint Scale and the Rapid Weight Loss Questionnaire was 0.62 (P<0.001; n=60). Athletes below their weight class (n=50) had a significantly lower score compared with athletes above the weight class (n=50; P<0.001 - Mann-Whitney U test). In conclusion, the questionnaire showed good validity and reliability and could be used accurately to assess weight loss patterns of judo players.

Stress e coping em competição para jovens

Artigo interessante, incluindo atletas de judô, sobre fatores de estresse e estratégias para contorná-lo em atletas jovens participando de festival preparatório para os Jogos Olímpicos para jovens (a ser realizado no próximo ano). Embora não haja distinção do grupo de judocas em relação aos demais atletas, algumas providências sugeridas podem auxiliar treinadores e chefes de delegação a diminuir o estresse dos atletas.

Young elite athletes and social support: coping with competitive and organizational stress in "Olympic" competition.

Elite adolescent sport is a relatively unexplored research field. The purpose of this investigation was to examine how the Norwegian Olympic Youth Team (N=29) experienced competitive and organizational stress during the European Youth Olympic Festival in July 2007 and how they coped with the stressors. Participants were aged 14-17 and competed in handball, track and field, swimming, and judo. We used a qualitative methodology with interviews and open-ended questionnaires. Qualitative content analyses revealed that the athletes experienced competitive stressors because of the size and importance of the competition, and organizational stressors (e.g., housing, lining up for food, and transportation) exacerbated by the extreme heat during the Festival. The elite competitive experience was novel to all and overwhelming for some of the more "inexperienced" athletes. The athletes used cognitive coping strategies to some extent in addition to relying on different types of social support. The findings revealed the need for social support for adolescent athletes, and underlined the importance of a good coach-athlete relationship in order to perform well and enjoy the competitive experience.
