- Soccer sprint and agility are similar between pre- and postpubescent boys, when ball is consideredPublication . Morouço, P.G.; Dias, R.; Menino, V.Introduction Scientific evidence suggests that specific physiological demands and anthropometrical prerequisites result in the selection of young players based onenhanced physiological performances and anthropometricaladvantage (1). How-ever, the competitive demands are not the same in youth categories, inducing different physical and physiological profiles from those of adult players (2). The purpose of the present study was to analyze possible differences in speed, agility and jump height of pre- and postpubescent soccer players.
- Strength or technique: What should be trained to increase swimming speed?Publication . Morouço, P.G.; Marinho, D.A.; Marques, M.C.Introdution Swimming speed is both dependent on strength and technique. Indeed, the balance between these two major factors may explain the success or failure in competitive events. However, competitive events vary enormously in terms of distance, and therefore time and intensity. Thus, an optimal level of strength is essential for successful performance in swimming (1), varying according to the distance to be swam (2). But how can swimming coaches track the balance between these two factors? And how can be identified if the swimmer must focus in one of them, in detriment of the other?
