Abstract

The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of partial sleep deprivation at the end of the night (PSDE) on anaerobic performances during the Wingate test (peak (PP) and mean (MP) power) and the hand grip (HG) test in judokas. In a randomized order, twenty-one judokas (age: 19.1 ± 1.2 yrs; height: 176.5 ± 4.2 cm; body mass: 77.3 ± 6.3 kg) performed two sessions after a normal sleep night (NSN) or a PSDE. During each session, they carried out the Wingate and the HG tests before (T0) and after (T1) a judo match. Rating of perceived exertion (RPE) scores were obtained at the end of the combat. PP and MP decreased significantly from T0 to T1 during the two experimental conditions (p < 0.01), and from NSN to PSDE at T0 and T1 (p < 0.05). However, the HG strength decreased only from T0 to T1 (p < 0.001) and was not significantly affected by PSDE. Likewise, the RPE scores were not affected by PSDE. Therefore, PSDE (i) reduced muscle power during the Wingate test and (ii) did not affect muscle strength during the HG test.

Abstract

Glutamine is an important amino acid for immune function. Though high intensity and prolonged exercise decreases plasma glutamine concentration and causes immune suppression, the relationship between neutrophil functions and glutamine has not yet been found. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impacts of glutamine supplementation on neutrophil function. Twenty-six male university judoists were recruited. Subjects were classified into glutamine and control groups. The glutamine group ingested 3000 mg of glutamine per day and the control group ingested placebo for 2 weeks. Examinations were performed at the start of preunified loading exercise (pre-ULE), then 1 and 2 weeks after ULE (post-ULE). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, phagocytic activity, serum opsonic activity and serum myogenic enzymes were measured. Differences between the levels obtained in pre-ULE and post-ULE for the two groups were compared. In the glutamine group, ROS production activity increased 1 week after ULE, whereas it was not observed in the control group (P<0 .001="" activity="" after="" an="" and="" by="" damage="" during="" enzymes="" especially="" even="" excessive="" function="" glutamine="" group="" has="" in="" increased="" intensive="" muscle="" myogenic="" nbsp="" neutrophil="" of="" p="" period.="" prevented="" production="" remained="" ros="" significantly="" supplementation="" suppression="" the="" though="" training="" ule.="" ule="" unchanged="">

Abstract

This experiment tested whether the conformism observed among panels of judges in aesthetic sports also occurs among judges in judo. Similar to aesthetic sports, judo judging relies upon a form of open feedback. However, in judo, this system is reactive (i.e. two judges have to publicly 'correct' the score given by the higher-status referee), whereas it is active in aesthetic sports (i.e. judges with equal status report their score simultaneously and can use the feedback about the scores of their colleagues for evaluating later performances). In order to test whether such reactive open-feedback system leads to conformism among judges in judo, we designed an experiment in which this feedback was manipulated. Participants were 20 certified Flemish judges, who had to score two sets of 11 ambiguous video sequences that are used during formation and training of judo judges: one set with feedback about the referee's score and one set without feedback. The results revealed that when participants knew the referee's score, their scores were significantly more in line with this score than when they did not know this score. More specifically, for both sets of sequences at least 10% less deviations from the referee were observed when participants were given feedback about the score of the referee. These results suggest that preventable conformism can occur in typical judo judging, that is with reactive open feedback.

ABSTRACT
Kwok HHM. Discrepancies in fighting strategies between Taekwondo medalists and non-medalists. J. Hum.
Sport Exerc. Vol. 7, No. 4, pp. 806-814, 2012. The aim of this study was to compare the fighting strategies
between medalists and non-medalists in Taekwondo. A total of 107 matches from the 16th Asian Games
had been video-taped for notational analysis. Round house kick was the most frequently used kick by the
medalists in the competition (63.29%) while cut down kick (9.26%) and push kick (7.08%) were ranked
second and third respectively. Aggressive mode of attack was the dominant fighting strategy used by the
medalists (63.17%).  Discrepancies in fighting strategies between Taekwondo medalists and non-medalists
were found in this study including mode of attack, use of turning attack, and number of types of kick
employed.
Key words: MARTIAL ARTS, NOTATIONAL ANALYSIS, ATTACK.

Circula na internet que a UNESCO declarou o judô o esporte mais indicado para crianças...

Aqui o que verdadeiramente aparece sobre judô no site da UNESCO: duas notícias sobre karate : )
Um doce para a primeira pessoa que me enviar um link do site da UNESCO com a notícia tão propagada.

A FIJ não apoia os métodos duros de treinamento

Eu apoio métodos duros de treinamento; não apoio é espancar os atletas... The IJF Condemns Hard Training Methods

31th January 2013.

In direct connection with the complaint of a group of athletes from the national Japanese women's team, reporting the acts from their coach, the IJF strongly emphasizes its total disapproval of such behaviors.

"It has nothing to do with the spirit and philosophy of judo taught by the founding master of our sport, Master Jigoro Kano," said the President of the International Judo Federation, Mr. Marius Vizer.

 

The IJF is particularly focussed on the development and promotion of the moral code of judo. Judo is a method to develop the physical and mental capacities, whose primary concern is to maintain the health and integrity (physical and mental) of the participants. Any action that goes against these principles are banned. The IJF will therefore take all necessary measures.

La FIJ désapprouve les méthodes durs d'Entraînement

En lien direct avec la plainte portée par un groupe d'athlètes de la sélection nationale japonaise féminine, concernant les agissements de la part de leur coach, la FIJ tient à fortement souligner sa totale désapprobation envers de tels comportements. "Ceux-ci n'ont rien à voir avec l'esprit du judo et la philosophie enseignée par le maître fondateur de notre sport, Jigoro Kano", déclare le Président de la Fédération Internationale de Judo, M. Marius Vizer.

 

La FIJ met particulièrement l'accent sur le développement et sur la promotion du code moral du judo. Le judo est un moyen d'éducation physique et mental dont le souci premier est de préserver la santé et l'intégrité (physique et mentale) de ses pratiquants. Toute action qui va contre ces principes est bannie. La FIJ va par conséquent prendre toutes les mesures qui s'imposent.
