College Students’ Knowledge Of Recovery Beverage Serving Sizes, Stephanie Lewis, Victoria Baxter, Kim Spaccarotella, Walter Andzel
International Journal of Exercise Science
International Journal of Exercise Science 10(3): 397-405, 2017. Previous research suggests that chocolate milk may be a beneficial recovery beverage, yet little is known about how athletes and students training for careers in sports science or health-related fields interpret recommended recovery beverage serving sizes. This study examined college students’ ability to correctly apply serving size recommendations for chocolate milk and protein powder used during post-exercise recovery and assessed usual consumption of milk as a recovery beverage. College students (34 women, 39 men) poured the amount of chocolate milk they would consume within 90 minutes after exercise unaided and with the …
Ankle Spatting Compared To Bracing Or Taping During Maximal-Effort Sprint Drills, Grant D. Reuter, Angela R. Dahl, David S. Senchina
Ankle Spatting Compared To Bracing Or Taping During Maximal-Effort Sprint Drills, Grant D. Reuter, Angela R. Dahl, David S. Senchina
International Journal of Exercise Science
The purpose of this study was to compare the influences of 4 ankle conditions (no support, bracing, taping, taping + spatting; all in football cleats) during 2 maximal-effort field drills (40-yd dash and 34-yd cutting drill) on perceptions of comfort and stability and performance outcomes. Fourteen young adult males participated. Subjects’ perceptions of comfort and stability were assessed by visual analogue scales after each drill for each ankle condition. Time-to-completion and post-completion heart rate were recorded. For both drills, significant differences in comfort perception were found such that subjects perceived no support as equivocal to bracing but more comfortable than …
