Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is the most common substance use disorder worldwide. Although dopamine-related findings were often observed in AUD, associated neurobiological mechanisms are still poorly understood. Therefore, in the present study, we investigate D2/3 receptor availability in healthy participants, participants at high risk (HR) to develop addiction (not diagnosed with AUD), and AUD patients in a detoxified stage, applying F-18-fallypride positron emission tomography (F-18-PET). Specifically, D2/3 receptor availability was investigated in (1) 19 low-risk (LR) controls, (2) 19 HR participants, and (3) 20 AUD patients after alcohol detoxification. Quality and severity of addiction were assessed with clinical questionnaires and (neuro)psychological tests. PET data were corrected for age of participants and smoking status. In the dorsal striatum, we observed significant reductions of D2/3 receptor availability in AUD patients compared with LR participants. Further, receptor availability in HR participants was observed to be intermediate between LR and AUD groups (linearly decreasing). Still, in direct comparison, no group difference was observed between LR and HR groups or between HR and AUD groups. Further, the score of the Alcohol Dependence Scale (ADS) was inversely correlated with D2/3 receptor availability in the combined sample. Thus, in line with a dimensional approach, striatal D2/3 receptor availability showed a linear decrease from LR participants to HR participants to AUD patients, which was paralleled by clinical measures. Our study shows that a core neurobiological feature in AUD seems to be detectable in an early, subclinical state, allowing more individualized alcohol prevention programs in the future.
Objective:
Depression and coronary heart disease (CHD) are highly comorbid conditions. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays an important role in cardiovascular processes. Depressed patients typically show decreased BDNF concentrations. We analysed the relationship between BDNF and depression in a sample of patients with CHD and additionally distinguished between cognitive-affective and somatic depression symptoms. We also investigated whether BDNF was associated with somatic comorbidity burden, acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or congestive heart failure (CHF).
Methods:
The following variables were assessed for 225 hospitalised patients with CHD: BDNF concentrations, depression [Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9)], somatic comorbidity (Charlson Comorbidity Index), CHF, ACS, platelet count, smoking status and antidepressant treatment.
Results:
Regression models revealed that BDNF was not associated with severity of depression. Although depressed patients (PHQ-9 score >7) had significantly lower BDNF concentrations compared to non-depressed patients (p = 0.04), this was not statistically significant after controlling for confounders (p = 0.15). Cognitive-affective symptoms and somatic comorbidity burden each closely missed a statistically significant association with BDNF concentrations (p = 0.08, p = 0.06, respectively). BDNF was reduced in patients with CHF (p = 0.02). There was no covariate-adjusted, significant association between BDNF and ACS.
Conclusion:
Serum BDNF concentrations are associated with cardiovascular dysfunction. Somatic comorbidities should be considered when investigating the relationship between depression and BDNF.

Background Recent shoulder injury prevention programs have utilized resistance exercises combined with different forms of instability, with the goal of eliciting functional adaptations and thereby reducing the risk of injury. However, it is still unknown how an unstable weight mass (UWM) affects the muscular activity of the shoulder stabilizers. Aim of the study was to assess neuromuscular activity of dynamic shoulder stabilizers under four conditions of stable and UWM during three shoulder exercises. It was hypothesized that a combined condition of weight with UWM would elicit greater activation due to the increased stabilization demand. Methods Sixteen participants (7 m/9 f) were included in this cross-sectional study and prepared with an EMG-setup for the: Mm. upper/lower trapezius (U.TA/L.TA), lateral deltoid (DE), latissimus dorsi (LD), serratus anterior (SA) and pectoralis major (PE). A maximal voluntary isometric contraction test (MVIC; 5 s.) was performed on an isokinetic dynamometer. Next, internal/external rotation (In/Ex), abduction/adduction (Ab/Ad) and diagonal flexion/extension (F/E) exercises (5 reps.) were performed with four custom-made-pipes representing different exercise conditions. First, the empty-pipe (P; 0.5 kg) and then, randomly ordered, water-filled-pipe (PW; 1 kg), weight-pipe (PG; 4.5 kg) and weight + water-filled-pipe (PWG; 4.5 kg), while EMG was recorded. Raw root-mean-square values (RMS) were normalized to MVIC (%MVIC). Differences between conditions for RMS%MVIC, scapular stabilizer (SR: U.TA/L.TA; U.TA/SA) and contraction (CR: concentric/eccentric) ratios were analyzed (paired t-test; p <= 0.05; Bonferroni adjusted alpha = 0.008). Results PWG showed significantly greater muscle activity for all exercises and all muscles except for PE compared to P and PW. Condition PG elicited muscular activity comparable to PWG (p > 0.008) with significantly lower activation of L.TA and SA in the In/Ex rotation. The SR ratio was significantly higher in PWG compared to P and PW. No significant differences were found for the CR ratio in all exercises and for all muscles. Conclusion Higher weight generated greater muscle activation whereas an UWM raised the neuromuscular activity, increasing the stabilization demands. Especially in the In/Ex rotation, an UWM increased the RMS%MVIC and SR ratio. This might improve training effects in shoulder prevention and rehabilitation programs.
There is ample evidence that youth resistance training (RT) is safe, joyful, and effective for different markers of performance (e.g., muscle strength, power, linear sprint speed) and health (e.g., injury prevention). Accordingly, the first aim of this narrative review is to present and discuss the relevance of muscle strength for youth physical development. The second purpose is to report evidence on the effectiveness of RT on muscular fitness (muscle strength, power, muscle endurance), on movement skill performance and injury prevention in youth. There is evidence that RT is effective in enhancing measures of muscle fitness in children and adolescents, irrespective of sex. Additionally, numerous studies indicate that RT has positive effects on fundamental movement skills (e.g., jumping, running, throwing) in youth regardless of age, maturity, training status, and sex. Further, irrespective of age, sex, and training status, regular exposure to RT (e.g., plyometric training) decreases the risk of sustaining injuries in youth. This implies that RT should be a meaningful element of youths’ exercise programming. This has been acknowledged by global (e.g., World Health Organization) and national (e.g., National Strength and Conditioning Association) health- and performance-related organizations which is why they recommended to perform RT as an integral part of weekly exercise programs to promote muscular strength, fundamental movement skills, and to resist injuries in youth.
This meta-analysis aimed to assess the effects of plyometric jump training (PJT) on volleyball players’ vertical jump height (VJH), comparing changes with those observed in a matched control group. A literature search in the databases of PubMed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, and SCOPUS was conducted. Only randomized-controlled trials and studies that included a pre-to-post intervention assessment of VJH were included. They involved only healthy volleyball players with no restrictions on age or sex. Data were independently extracted from the included studies by two authors. The Physiotherapy Evidence Database scale was used to assess the risk of bias, and methodological quality, of eligible studies included in the review. From 7,081 records, 14 studies were meta-analysed. A moderate Cohen’s d effect size (ES = 0.82, p <0.001) was observed for VJH, with moderate heterogeneity (I2 = 34.4%, p = 0.09) and no publication bias (Egger’s test, p = 0.59). Analyses of moderator variables revealed no significant differences for PJT program duration (≤8 vs. >8 weeks, ES = 0.79 vs. 0.87, respectively), frequency (≤2 vs. >2 sessions/week, ES = 0.83 vs. 0.78, respectively), total number of sessions (≤16 vs. >16 sessions, ES = 0.73 vs. 0.92, respectively), sex (female vs. male, ES = 1.3 vs. 0.5, respectively), age (≥19 vs. <19 years of age, ES = 0.89 vs. 0.70, respectively), and volume (>2,000 vs. <2,000 jumps, ES = 0.76 vs. 0.79, respectively). In conclusion, PJT appears to be effective in inducing improvements in volleyball players’ VJH. Improvements in VJH may be achieved by both male and female volleyball players, in different age groups, with programs of relatively low volume and frequency. Though PJT seems to be safe for volleyball players, it is recommended that an individualized approach, according to player position, is adopted with some players (e.g. libero) less prepared to sustain PJT loads.
One of the major risk factors for global death and disability is alcohol, tobacco, and illicit drug use. While there is increasing knowledge with respect to individual factors promoting the initiation and maintenance of substance use disorders (SUDs), disease trajectories involved in losing and regaining control over drug intake (ReCoDe) are still not well described. Our newly formed German Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) on ReCoDe has an interdisciplinary approach funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) with a 12-year perspective. The main goals of our research consortium are (i) to identify triggers and modifying factors that longitudinally modulate the trajectories of losing and regaining control over drug consumption in real life, (ii) to study underlying behavioral, cognitive, and neurobiological mechanisms, and (iii) to implicate mechanism-based interventions. These goals will be achieved by: (i) using mobile health (m-health) tools to longitudinally monitor the effects of triggers (drug cues, stressors, and priming doses) and modify factors (eg, age, gender, physical activity, and cognitive control) on drug consumption patterns in real-life conditions and in animal models of addiction; (ii) the identification and computational modeling of key mechanisms mediating the effects of such triggers and modifying factors on goal-directed, habitual, and compulsive aspects of behavior from human studies and animal models; and (iii) developing and testing interventions that specifically target the underlying mechanisms for regaining control over drug intake.
Die vorliegende Untersuchung analysierte den direkten Zusammenhang eines berufsbezogenen Angebots Sozialer Gruppenarbeit mit dem Ergebnis beruflicher Wiedereingliederung bei Rehabilitandinnen und Rehabilitanden in besonderen beruflichen Problemlagen. Sie wurde von der Deutschen Rentenversicherung Bund als Forschungsprojekt vom 01.01.2013 bis 31.12. 2015 gefördert und an der Professur für Rehabilitationswissenschaften der Universität Potsdam realisiert.
Die Forschungsfrage lautete: Kann eine intensive sozialarbeiterische Gruppenintervention im Rahmen der stationären medizinischen Rehabilitation soweit auf die Stärkung sozialer Kompetenzen und die Soziale Unterstützung von Rehabilitandinnen und Rehabilitanden einwirken, dass sich dadurch langfristige Verbesserungen hinsichtlich der beruflichen Wiedereingliederung im Vergleich zur konventionellen Behandlung ergeben?
Die Studie gliederte sich in eine qualitative und eine quantitative Erhebung mit einer zwischenliegenden Intervention. Eingeschlossen waren 352 Patientinnen und Patienten im Alter zwischen 18 und 65 Jahren mit kardiovaskulären Diagnosen, deren Krankheitsbilder häufig von komplexen Problemlagen begleitet sind, verbunden mit einer schlechten sozialmedizinischen Prognose.
Die Evaluation der Gruppenintervention erfolgte in einem clusterrandomisierten kontrollierten Studiendesign, um einen empirischen Nachweis darüber zu erbringen, inwieweit die Intervention gegenüber der regulären sozialarbeiterischen Behandlung höhere Effekte erzielen kann. Die Interventionsgruppen nahmen am Gruppenprogramm teil, die Kontrollgruppen erhielten die reguläre sozialarbeiterische Behandlung.
Im Ergebnis konnte mit dieser Stichprobe kein Nachweis zur Verbesserung der beruflichen Wiedereingliederung, der gesundheitsbezogenen Arbeitsfähigkeit, der Lebensqualität sowie der Sozialen Unterstützung durch die Teilnahme am sozialarbeiterischen Gruppenprogramm erbracht werden. Die Return-To-Work-Rate betrug 43,7 %, ein Viertel der Untersuchungsgruppe befand sich nach einem Jahr in Arbeitslosigkeit. Die durchgeführte Gruppenintervention ist dem konventionellen Setting Sozialer Arbeit als gleichwertig anzusehen.
Schlussfolgernd wurde auf eine sozialarbeiterische Unterstützung der beruflichen Wiedereingliederung über einen längeren Zeitraum nach einer kardiovaskulären Erkrankung verwiesen, insbesondere durch wohnortnahe Angebote zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt bei stabilerer Gesundheit. Aus den Erhebungen ließen sich mögliche Erfolge bei engerer Kooperation zwischen dem Fachbereich der Sozialen Arbeit und der Psychologie ableiten. Ebenfalls gab es Hinweise auf die einflussreiche Rolle der Angehörigen, die durch Einbindung in die Soziale Beratung unterstützend auf den Wiedereingliederungsprozess wirken könnten. Die Passgenauigkeit der untersuchten sozialarbeiterischen Gruppeninterventionen ist durch eine gezielte Soziale Diagnostik zu verbessern.
Several studies have investigated the effects of music on both submaximal and maximal exercise performance at a constant work-rate. However, there is a lack of research that has examined the effects of music on the pacing strategy during self-paced exercise. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of preferred music on performance and pacing during a 6 min run test (6-MSPRT) in young male adults. Twenty healthy male participants volunteered for this study. They performed two randomly assigned trials (with or without music) of a 6-MSPRT three days apart. Mean running speed, the adopted pacing strategy, total distance covered (TDC), peak and mean heart rate (HRpeak, HRmean), blood lactate (3 min after the test), and rate of perceived exertion (RPE) were measured. Listening to preferred music during the 6-MSPRT resulted in significant TDC improvement (?10%; p = 0.016; effect size (ES) = 0.80). A significantly faster mean running speed was observed when listening to music compared with no music. The improvement of TDC in the present study is explained by a significant overall increase in speed (main effect for conditions) during the music trial. Music failed to modify pacing patterns as suggested by the similar reversed “J-shaped” profile during the two conditions. Blood-lactate concentrations were significantly reduced by 9% (p = 0.006, ES = 1.09) after the 6-MSPRT with music compared to those in the control condition. No statistically significant differences were found between the test conditions for HRpeak, HRmean, and RPE. Therefore, listening to preferred music can have positive effects on exercise performance during the 6-MSPRT, such as greater TDC, faster running speeds, and reduced blood lactate levels but has no effect on the pacing strategy.
Background: The back pain screening tool Risk-Prevention-Index Social (RPI-S) identifies the individual psychosocial risk for low back pain chronification and supports the allocation of patients at risk in additional multidisciplinary treatments. The study objectives were to evaluate (1) the prognostic validity of the RPI-S for a 6-month time frame and (2) the clinical benefit of the RPI-S.
Methods: In a multicenter single-blind 3-armed randomized controlled trial, n = 660 persons (age 18–65 years) were randomly assigned to a twelve-week uni- or multidisciplinary exercise intervention or control group. Psychosocial risk was assessed by the RPI-S domain social environment (RPI-SSE) and the outcome pain by the Chronic Pain Grade Questionnaire (baseline M1, 12-weeks M4, 24-weeks M5). Prognostic validity was quantified by the root mean squared error (RMSE) within the control group. The clinical benefit of RPI-SSE was calculated by repeated measures ANOVA in intervention groups.
Results: A subsample of n = 274 participants (mean = 38.0 years, SD 13.1) was analyzed, of which 30% were classified at risk in their psychosocial profile. The half-year prognostic validity was good (RMSE for disability of 9.04 at M4 and of 9.73 at M5; RMSE for pain intensity of 12.45 at M4 and of 14.49 at M5). People at risk showed significantly stronger reduction in pain disability and intensity at M4/M5, if participating in a multidisciplinary exercise treatment. Subjects at no risk showed a smaller reduction in pain disability in both interventions and no group differences for pain intensity. Regarding disability due to pain, around 41% of the sample would gain an unfitted treatment without the back pain screening.
Conclusion: The RPI-SSE prognostic validity demonstrated good applicability and a clinical benefit confirmed by a clear advantage of an individualized treatment possibility.
Effects of the barbell load on the acceleration phase during the snatch in Olympic weightlifting
(2020)
The load-depended loss of vertical barbell velocity at the end of the acceleration phase limits the maximum weight that can be lifted. Thus, the purpose of this study was to analyze how increased barbell loads affect the vertical barbell velocity in the sub-phases of the acceleration phase during the snatch. It was hypothesized that the load-dependent velocity loss at the end of the acceleration phase is primarily associated with a velocity loss during the 1st pull. For this purpose, 14 male elite weightlifters lifted seven load-stages from 70–100% of their personal best in the snatch. The load–velocity relationship was calculated using linear regression analysis to determine the velocity loss at 1st pull, transition, and 2nd pull. A group mean data contrast analysis revealed the highest load-dependent velocity loss for the 1st pull (t = 1.85, p = 0.044, g = 0.49 [−0.05, 1.04]) which confirmed our study hypothesis. In contrast to the group mean data, the individual athlete showed a unique response to increased loads during the acceleration sub-phases of the snatch. With the proposed method, individualized training recommendations on exercise selection and loading schemes can be derived to specifically improve the sub-phases of the snatch acceleration phase. Furthermore, the results highlight the importance of single-subject assessment when working with elite athletes in Olympic weightlifting.
The manual muscle test (MMT) is a flexible diagnostic tool, which is used in many disciplines, applied in several ways. The main problem is the subjectivity of the test. The MMT in the version of a “break test” depends on the tester’s force rise and the patient’s ability to resist the applied force. As a first step, the investigation of the reproducibility of the testers’ force profile is required for valid application. The study examined the force profiles of n = 29 testers (n = 9 experiences (Exp), n = 8 little experienced (LitExp), n = 12 beginners (Beg)). The testers performed 10 MMTs according to the test of hip flexors, but against a fixed leg to exclude the patient’s reaction. A handheld device recorded the temporal course of the applied force. The results show significant differences between Exp and Beg concerning the starting force (padj = 0.029), the ratio of starting to maximum force (padj = 0.005) and the normalized mean Euclidean distances between the 10 trials (padj = 0.015). The slope is significantly higher in Exp vs. LitExp (p = 0.006) and Beg (p = 0.005). The results also indicate that experienced testers show inter-tester differences and partly even a low intra-tester reproducibility. This highlights the necessity of an objective MMT-assessment. Furthermore, an agreement on a standardized force profile is required. A suggestion for this is given.
Gait analysis is an important tool for the early detection of neurological diseases and for the assessment of risk of falling in elderly people. The availability of low-cost camera hardware on the market today and recent advances in Machine Learning enable a wide range of clinical and health-related applications, such as patient monitoring or exercise recognition at home. In this study, we evaluated the motion tracking performance of the latest generation of the Microsoft Kinect camera, Azure Kinect, compared to its predecessor Kinect v2 in terms of treadmill walking using a gold standard Vicon multi-camera motion capturing system and the 39 marker Plug-in Gait model. Five young and healthy subjects walked on a treadmill at three different velocities while data were recorded simultaneously with all three camera systems. An easy-to-administer camera calibration method developed here was used to spatially align the 3D skeleton data from both Kinect cameras and the Vicon system. With this calibration, the spatial agreement of joint positions between the two Kinect cameras and the reference system was evaluated. In addition, we compared the accuracy of certain spatio-temporal gait parameters, i.e., step length, step time, step width, and stride time calculated from the Kinect data, with the gold standard system. Our results showed that the improved hardware and the motion tracking algorithm of the Azure Kinect camera led to a significantly higher accuracy of the spatial gait parameters than the predecessor Kinect v2, while no significant differences were found between the temporal parameters. Furthermore, we explain in detail how this experimental setup could be used to continuously monitor the progress during gait rehabilitation in older people.
(1) Background: People with HIV (PWH) may perform more than one type of exercise cumulatively. The objective of this study is to investigate recreational exercise and its association with health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and comorbidities in relation to potential covariates. (2) Methods: The HIBES study (HIV-Begleiterkrankungen-Sport) is a cross-sectional study for people with HIV. The differences between non-exercisers versus exercisers (cumulated vs. single type of exercises) were investigated using regression models based on 454 participants. (3) Results: Exercisers showed a higher HRQOL score compared to non-exercisers (Wilcox r = 0.2 to 0.239). Psychological disorders were identified as the main covariate. Participants performing exercise cumulatively showed higher scores in duration, frequency, and intensity when compared to participants performing only one type of exercise. The mental health summary score was higher for the cumulated and single type of exercise if a psychological disorder existed. Duration and intensity were associated with an increase of HRQOL, whilst a stronger association between psychological disorders and exercise variables were evident. Exercise duration (minutes) showed a significant effect on QOL (standardized beta = 0.1) and for participants with psychological disorders (standardized beta = 0.3), respectively. (4) Conclusions: Psychological disorders and other covariates have a prominent effect on HRQOL and its association with exercise. For PWH with a psychological disorder, a stronger relationship between HRQOL with exercise duration and intensity emerged. However, differentiation of high-HRQOL individuals warrants further investigation by considering additional factors.
Eine sportartspezifische Anforderungsanalyse ist die Grundlage für die Leistungsdiagnostik und eine wichtige Voraussetzung für die Trainingssteuerung im Spitzensport. Im Rahmen der Leistungsdiagnostik in der Zweikampfsportart Judo besitzen judospezifische Anrissleistungen bei Anrissbewegungen ein hohes Potenzial, um Defizite im Kraft-Weg-Verlauf bzw. in den kinetischen Parametern (z. B. mechanische Arbeit, dynamische Maximalkraft) zu identifizieren und ableitend daraus entsprechende trainingsmethodische Anpassungen zur Verbesserung vorzunehmen. Die Rumpfstabilität und die Rumpfkraft stellen wichtige Leistungsvoraussetzungen für sportliche Bewegungen dar, um den optimalen Transfer von Kräften und Drehmomenten von den unteren Extremitäten über den stabilen Rumpf hin zu den oberen Extremitäten zu ermöglichen. Im Trainingsprozess der Judoka erfährt das spezifische Krafttraining immer mehr Aufmerksamkeit, um die sportartrelevanten Muskelgruppen zu entwickeln und somit die finale Effektivität einer Wurftechnik zu verbessern.
Die wesentliche Zielstellung dieser Arbeit bestand darin, die Leistungsdiagnostik im Judo zu optimieren und effektive Trainingsprogramme zur Verbesserung von judospezifischen Anrissbewegungen zu entwickeln. Im Einzelnen wurde dafür eine systematische Anforderungsanalyse für die Sportart Judo erarbeitet. Basierend auf dieser Analyse wurden die Validität und die Reliabilität von kinetischen Parametern während Anrissbewegungen mit einem judospezifischen Ergometer-System (JERGo) untersucht. Zudem wurden die Zusammenhänge zwischen der Rumpfkraft und kinetischen Parametern bei judospezifischen Anrissbewegungen analysiert. Schließlich wurde die Wirksamkeit eines spezifischen Anrisstrainings am JERGo-System gegenüber einem Anrisstraining mit Partner auf kinetische Parameter und Muskelaktivität überprüft.
Die sportartspezifische Anforderungsanalyse wurde unter Berücksichtigung der metabolischen und muskulären Anforderungen sowie sportartspezifischen Verletzungsrisiken erarbeitet. An den zwei Querstudien bzw. einer Längsschnittstudie nahmen gesunde männliche Judoka mit unterschiedlichem Expertiseniveau teil. Die kinetischen Parameter bei judospezifischen Anrissbewegungen wurden mit dem JERGo-System in allen Experimentalstudien erfasst. Die Rumpfkraft wurde mit einem isokinetischen Dynamometer gemessen, um Assoziationen zwischen der Rumpfkraft und judospezifischen Anrissleistungen zu bestimmen. Zudem wurde die Aktivität ausgewählter Rumpf-/Schultermuskeln bei der Anrissbewegung im Standfür die Validierung des JERGo-Systems und für die Überprüfung der Effekte eines Anrisstrainings erfasst. Die Ermittlung von sportmotorischen Leistungen erfolgte durch die Übungen Liegend-Anreißen und Klimmziehen, um die Wirkungen eines judospezifischen Anrisstrainings auf sportartunspezifische Kraftleistungen zu untersuchen.
Unter Berücksichtigung der muskulären Anforderungen im Judo wird die Ausführung einer explosiven Anrissbewegung bzw. Wurftechnik durch die koordinierte Aktivität vieler Muskelgruppen und vor allem durch die unteren Extremitäten sowie den Rumpf realisiert. Aus trainingswissenschaftlicher Sicht ist das JERGo-System ein valides und reliables Messinstrument für die Diagnostik von kinetischen Parametern während judospezifischer Anrissbewegungen. Die Rumpfkraft, insbesondere bei der Rumpfrotation, ist mit kinetischen Parametern bei judospezifischen Anrissbewegungen assoziiert. Ein Anrisstraining am JERGo-System zeigt in den kinetischen Parametern und Muskelaktivierungen vor allem bei der Anrissbewegung im Stand signifikant größere Zuwachsraten im Vergleich zu einem Anrisstraining mit Partner.
Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit zeigen, dass die Verbesserung der muskulären Leistungsfähigkeit (z. B. Explosivkraft) in den unteren Extremitäten und der Rumpfmuskulatur eine wichtige Basis für judospezifische Anrissleistungen bei Anrissbewegungen und Wurftechniken darstellt. Zudem empfiehlt es sich, dass JERGo-System zur Diagnostik von kinetischen Parametern bei judospezifischen Anrissbewegungen in die judospezifische Testbatterie einzubinden. Weiterhin kann davon ausgegangen werden, dass durch rumpfextensions- und vor allem durch rumpfrotationskräftigende Übungen unter maximal schellkräftigender Muskelaktivierung Einfluss auf kinetische Parameter bei judospezifischen Anrissbewegungen genommen wird. Letztendlich empfiehlt es sich, ein Antrisstraining am JERGo-System in den judospezifischen Trainingsprozess zu integrieren.
