Strength and Conditioning: Principles for Developing Peak Athletic Performance
Abstrct
"Strength and Conditioning: Principles for Developing Peak Athletic Performance" is comprehensive research beyond traditional training manuals, providing a revolutionary approach to athletic development. The research navigates the delicate interaction of biomechanics, physiology, psychology, and nutrition while grounded in specificity, overload, and progression. It has far-reaching ramifications, including improved performance, injury prevention, and holistic athlete development. Exploration of periodization models enables athletes and coaches to organize training cycles strategically, assuring peak performance throughout critical times. Sports nutrition focuses on the symbiotic link between food and performance, giving practical insights for educated nutritional decisions. The research comprehensive approach extends to psychological elements, acknowledging mental resilience and attention as essential peak performance components. Evidence-based decision-making is established as a foundational principle, encouraging a culture of continual learning and adaptability. Real-life case studies of successful athletes serve as inspiring narratives, helping others on their paths to greatness. In essence, "Strength and Conditioning" represents a paradigm change in how players and coaches see and approach athletic development as a path to peak performance and enduring greatness. The literature that is currently available suggests that increased muscle strength may be the only way to enhance an individual's performance in a variety of general and sport-specific skills while also lowering their risk of injury during performance. Consequently, within the necessary parameters of each activity or event, sports scientists and practitioners should employ long-term training programs that maximize muscle strength. Subsequent investigations should explore how force-time properties, general and sport-specific abilities, potentiation ability, and injury rates alter when people go from one set of standards or recommended strength phases to another.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
