An Overview of Performance-Enhancing Substances
Introduction Performance-enhancing substances (PESs), also known as performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs), are substances that are used to improve any form of activity performance in humans. Image Source: https://pixabay.com/photos/pills-tablets-drug-medical-3111994/ Many substances, such as anabolic steroids, can be used to improve athletic performance and build muscle, which in most cases is…
What is Sports Science?
Introduction Sports science is a discipline that studies how the healthy human body works during exercise, and how sports and physical activity promote health and performance from cellular to whole body perspectives. The study of sports science traditionally incorporates areas of physiology (exercise physiology), psychology (sport psychology), anatomy, biomechanics (sports biomechanics),…
What is Sport Psychology?
Introduction Sport psychology was defined by the European Federation of Sport Psychology (FEPSAC) in 1996, as the study of the psychological basis, processes, and effects of sport. Otherwise, sport is considered as any physical activity where the individuals engage for competition and health. Sport psychology is recognised as an interdisciplinary science that draws on knowledge from many related…

Are Other Factors Accompanying (Military) Diving Activity Capable of Initiating Damage to the Airways?
Research Paper Title
Study of the changes in respiratory function in self-contained underwater breathing apparatus divers.
Background
The objective was to investigate the respiratory function of professional divers by conducting spirometry and to compare the data obtained with those of non-divers.
Methods
This study involved 52 military divers who carried out dives at small and…

Pacing & Cardiorespiratory Demands while Carrying either Fighting or Approach Loads during Short Mixed Terrain Marches
Research Paper Title
Cardiorespiratory responses to heavy military load carriage over complex terrain.
Background
This study examined complex terrain march performance and cardiorespiratory responses when carrying different Soldier loads.
Methods
Nine active duty military personnel (age, 21 ± 3 yr; height, 1.72 ± 0.07 m; body mass (BM), 83.4 ± 12.9 kg) attended two test visits…

Cardiorespiratory Responses to Load Carriage: Compact Mode vs Distributed Mode
Research Paper Title
Effect of heavy load carriage on cardiorespiratory responses with varying gradients and modes of carriage.
Background
The present study was undertaken to determine the effect of different uphill and downhill gradients on cardiorespiratory and metabolic responses of soldiers while carrying heavy military loads in two different modes.
Methods
Eight physically fit…

Can We Determine the Genetic, Physiologic, & Behavioural Predictors of Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Specialised Military Men?
Research Paper Title
Genetic, Physiologic, and Behavioral Predictors of Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Specialized Military Men.
Background
Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is a crucial performance requirement of specialised military occupations. Age and physical activity are established predictors of CRF, but it is not clear how these predictors combine with each other and/or with genetic…
