(1) Background: Asymmetry is ubiquitous in nature and humans have well-established
bilateral asymmetries in their structures and functions. However, there are (mostly …

Background Repeated-sprint training (RST) involves maximal-effort, short-duration sprints
(≤ 10 s) interspersed with brief recovery periods (≤ 60 s). Knowledge about the acute …

Purpose: To analyze the effects of 2 different eccentric-overload training (EOT) programs,
using a rotational conical pulley, on functional performance in team-sport players. A …

The study aim was to compare the effects of a 7-week plyometric, strength and change of
direction (COD) training program on basketball-specific performance measures in high …

Purpose: To compare the effects of performing different unilateral strength training
interventions on unilateral and bilateral jum** performance and their related asymmetries …

Rugby sevens, a sport new to the Olympics, features high-intensity intermittent running and
contact efforts over short match durations, normally 6 times across 2 to 3 d in a tournament …

The purpose of this study was to compare force–and power–time curve variables during
jum** between Division I strength-matched male and female basketball athletes. Males …

Background: The relationship between stiffness and drop jump performance in athletes in
various stages of development has yet to be fully investigated. The first aim of this study was …

Interlimb asymmetries have been recently investigated in athletic populations. However, the
effects of training interventions on interlimb asymmetries have been scarcely examined …

This study analyzed the effects of two different training programs on functional performance
and inter-limb asymmetries in basketball players. Twenty-four elite youth basketball players …
