This exploratory qualitative study explored the experience of Czech elite trampolinists and their coaches with Lost Move Syndrome (LMS). Six in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with three trampolinists (aged from 13 to 20 years) and their coaches (aged from 45 to 46 years with coaching experience ranging from 20 to 28 years). Statements were analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. The results contributed to the mapping of this essential but not well-described phenomenon in the literature, showing, in particular, the significant variability in the perceived causes of LMS. Physical manifestations of LMS in individual trampolinists were quite different. Fear and misunderstanding of LMS were common psychological issues in all trampolinists. At the same time, there were significant differences between the experience of LMS by trampolinists and their coaches. The most crucial factor for understanding LMS appears to be personal experience with LMS. The results may be helpful for coaches in practice or sports psychologists to understand trampolinist's experience of LMS further.

EXPERIENCE OF CZECH ELITE TRAMPOLINISTS AND THEIR COACHES WITH LOST MOVE SYNDROME

捷克精英蹦床运动员及其教练对失忆动作综合征的体验

COVID-19 lockdowns had a negative impact on training practices and other fitness- and coaching-related aspects across many sports disciplines. This study analyzed the relationship between different training routines and performance, as well as the prevalence of musculoskeletal injuries (MI) in young gymnasts following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The sample consisted of 67 artistic gymnasts (AG) from Campo Grande, MS, Brazil, aged 8 to 17 years. Participants were divided into two groups: G1, which included gymnasts in remote training, and G2, comprising gymnasts in face-to-face training. Subjects were assessed for anthropometric variables, flexibility, muscle power, and sensorimotor stability, and completed a questionnaire to record MI cases. A total of 34 MI cases were reported by 23 participants (34.3%), with the majority affecting the lower limbs. Eight individuals reported at least two retrospective MI cases. Additionally, G2 demonstrated higher muscle power, greater flexibility, and improved sensorimotor stability. Face-to-face training conditions were associated with at least a tenfold increase in the likelihood of MI. Weekly training time (exposure) was linked to a ~9% increase in lower limb MI, while factors such as age, dynamic balance, and training were directly associated with MI occurring during floor exercises.In conclusion, although regular face-to-face training was linked to enhanced motor performance, it was also associated with a higher prevalence of MI, particularly in the lower limbs. Floor exercises were the primary circumstances under which injuries occurred.

SPORTS INJURIES IN YOUNG GYMNASTS FOLLOWING THE COVID-19 ONSET: PREVALENCE AND ASSOCIATED FACTORS

COVID-19疫情后年轻体操运动员的运动损伤：患病率及相关因素

The aim of this study was to familiarize preschool rhythmic gymnasts with testing procedures and to determine the number of familiarization attempts needed to stabilize the test results. Thirty-six female rhythmic gymnasts aged 5.14±0.79 years (body height: 119.44±5.98 cm; body mass: 21.46±3.35 kg) volunteered for the study. All gymnasts were free of injury, trained regularly (two days per week, approximately 60 minutes per session), and participated in the individual B level competitions. The main findings indicated a statistically significant difference between the variables of spine and leg flexibility (p&lt;0.00), standing long jump (p&lt;0.00), balance (p&lt;0.00), and shoulder flexion and extension (p&lt;0.00). According to the results obtained in this research, familiarization can significantly improve scores in motor tests for all variables (spine and leg flexibility, balance, standing long jump, and shoulder flexion and extension) in preschool rhythmic gymnasts. These findings suggest several possibilities for further research, such as investigating the long-term effects of familiarization on motor skill development, the specific mechanisms through which familiarization enhances performance, and its impact across different age groups and skill levels in rhythmic gymnastics. Rhythmic gymnastics trainers and other coaches of aesthetic sports should adapt and introduce participants to test protocols to avoid errors in testing.

ADAPTATION OF TESTING PROCEDURES AND STABILIZATION OF RESULTS IN PRESCHOOL RHYTHMIC GYMNASTS

学龄前韵律体操运动员测试程序的适应与结果的稳定性

A study was performed with the objective of analyzing the relationship between shoulder flexibility and handstand performance across three female artistic gymnastics apparatuses: floor exercise (FX), balance beam (BB), and uneven bars (UB). Twenty-one gymnasts participated and were divided into two groups: “G1”, consisting of twelve child gymnasts, and “G2”, consisting of nine adolescent gymnasts, aged 9 and 14 respectively. The study aimed to consider the sensitive phases for the development of flexibility. Using the Kinovea program, the shoulder angle (°H) in the handstand and the alignment of the joint segments (AJS) involved were analyzed. Participants underwent two different active shoulder flexibility tests (GFMT and FIG), and results were compared between the groups. Significant differences were found between groups in the GFMT test (p = 0.018), the FIG test (p = 0.026), and AJS in the BB handstand (p = 0.043). Significant relationships were also observed between the GFMT test and °H in UB (p = 0.021); and between the FIG test and °H in BB (p = 0.006), both withing the cild gymnast group. Overall, the adolescent group presented better scores, supporting the notion of greater body awareness and technical mastery of the handstand across the different female artistic gymnastics apparatuses.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SHOULDER FLEXIBILITY AND HANDSTAND ALIGNMENT IN DIFFERENT FEMALE ARTISTIC GYMNASTICS APPARATUS

不同女子艺术体操器械中肩部柔韧性与倒立姿势对齐的关系

The aim of this research was to examine the relationship between absolute and relative lower extremity strength and the efficiency of gymnastics vault performance. Thirty healthy, physically active male students (age: 20.84 ± 0.99 years; height: 179.46 ± 5.91 cm; body weight: 73.88 ± 6.43 kg) from the Faculty of Sports and Physical Education participated in the study. Absolute lower extremity strength was assessed by measuring the maximum load lifted (in kg) during a back squat (1RM). Relative lower extremity strength was calculated by dividing the estimated 1RM back squat by the participant's body weight (1RM/BW). Two types of vaults—the squat through (ST) and the front handspring (FHS)—were used to evaluate vault performance efficiency. Three criterion variables were applied: (d1) distance from the springboard in front of the vault, (d2) distance of landing beyond the vault, (d1 - d2) the difference between d1 and d2, and (pt) overall vault performance rating. The results showed statistically significant and strong correlations between both absolute and relative lower extremity strength and the variables measuring vault performance efficiency. The strongest correlations were observed for (d1), followed by (d2), (pt), and (d1 - d2). These findings can serve as guidelines for developing both absolute and relative lower extremity strength, which may lead to improved performance in gymnastics vaults.
