摘要:

In brief:This study analyzed junior and senior high school football injuries with on-the-field evaluation and data collection by physicians. More injuries occurred during varsity than freshman games, and contusions, sprains, strains, and other orthopedic injuries to the extremities were the most common. There was only one concussion in 31 games. This low incidence may be due to more effective football helmets. More injuries occurred on rainy days and muddy fields in this study, which contrasts with previous reports. The authors conclude that the average of one significant injury every five games suggests the need for continued medical coverage at football games.

摘要:

In brief:A physician, a psychologist, a physiologist, a wrestling coach, and a wrestler discuss the status of weight reduction in wrestling, including weight classes, methods of weight control, and the physiological effects of those methods. Weight-loss practices such as fasting and dehydration by working out in hot rooms wearing rubber or plastic suits and using saunas, hot boxes, and diuretics have been linked to depression, decreased learning capability, renal problems, and growth reduction. The panelists describe how to determine a wrestler's optimal weight class and discuss the best methods for weight control.

摘要:

In brief:Physiological and selected Psychological characteristics of nine highly trained race walkers were studied and the results compared to those for distance runners and other athletes of similar age. The percent body fat of the race walkers was similar to or lower than the other athletes. Their VO2max of 62.9 ml·kg−1·min−1was significantly higher than active men of comparable age and similar to or higher than many athletes, but significantly lower than world-class endurance athletes.

摘要:

In brief:One hundred eleven athletic trainers were surveyed about their use of seven neuromuscular facilitation (NF) techniques, what regions of the body they treated with NF, and which NF technique is most effective for a particular injury. Based on the information from this study, N F seems to have three roles: rehabilitation, prevention of injury, and warm-up. NF techniques were used most frequently for injuries to the knee, hip, and shoulder. Hamstring injuries responded best to NF treatment.

摘要:

In brief:A 29-year-old distance runner developed wheezing, chest tightness, and cough associated with training or racing in temperatures below 0 C. He had been running for four years and had recently moved to Colorado from Texas. The subject was treated with 2.5 mg of terbutaline orally one hour before running, and his symptoms completely resolved. Premedication was required only during the winter months. This case illustrates that with proper management and premedication tailored to the individual, athletes susceptible to exercise-induced asthma can participate at an essentially normal level throughout the year.

摘要:

Gunnar Borg developed the rating of perceived exertion to measure long-term changes in work capacity. Now it is used to monitor exercise programs for at-risk individuals and cardiac patients.

The‘new breed’of physical educators think that physical education classes should teach children the joy of movement rather than arbitrary levels of fitness or sports skills.
