Abstract

Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) significantly impacts athletes by impairing their performance and overall health. Characterized by airway narrowing during or after physical activity, EIB affects the quality of training and competition. This study employs a qualitative descriptive research model based on a comprehensive literature review to evaluate EIB management strategies in athletes. We systematically collected data from trusted scientific databases—Scopus, Science Direct, and Google Scholar—using keywords such as "Exercise-Induced Asthma," "Athlete," and "Sport." Relevant articles were identified, and key terms related to EIB management were reviewed. The data, including study designs, research objectives, sample sizes, and findings, were compiled and analyzed to determine effective management approaches. Key findings indicate that accurate diagnosis using spirometry and bronchial provocation tests is essential. Pharmacological management primarily involves inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) to reduce inflammation and control EIB, while short-acting beta agonists (SABAs) offer only temporary relief. Non-pharmacological strategies include avoiding triggers, implementing proper warm-up routines, and using breathing techniques. Supervised aerobic exercise programs were shown to improve cardiovascular fitness without worsening EIB symptoms. The study also reviewed the impact of environmental factors, such as air pollution and post-COVID-19 conditions, on EIB. Recommendations include personalized asthma action plans, training for coaches on environmental triggers, and exercising in controlled conditions. This study highlights the need for a holistic approach combining pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods to manage EIB effectively and maintain athletic performance. Further research is warranted to develop tailored strategies for athletes with EIB.

Abstract

This study evaluates the application of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) in sports physiotherapy, focusing on pain management, muscle recovery, and injury rehabilitation. Utilizing qualitative descriptive research based on a literature review, data were sourced from reputable scientific databases such as Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. The analysis revealed that TENS effectively manages pain by altering pain signals before they reach the brain, enhances muscle recovery by improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, and accelerating healing. Additionally, TENS supports injury rehabilitation by preserving strength and muscle mass during immobilization and contributes positively to athletes' mental well-being by maintaining motivation. While TENS demonstrates various benefits, its effectiveness can vary among individuals, indicating a need for further research to optimize usage protocols and assess its impact on specific conditions in sports. In conclusion, TENS is a valuable tool in sports physiotherapy, offering significant advantages in pain relief, muscle recovery, and rehabilitation

Abstract

This study aims to assess the impact of protein utilization and injury management on enhancing athletic performance and recovery in modern sports. Utilizing a qualitative descriptive research model, the study involves a comprehensive review of literature from reputable scientific databases such as Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Keywords such as "Injury Management," "Protein Utilization," and "Athletic Performance" guided the search for relevant studies. The analysis reveals that adequate protein intake and balanced nutrition are vital for muscle repair, reducing muscle damage, and accelerating recovery following injury or intense exercise. The findings emphasize that effective nutritional strategies not only support recovery but also contribute to injury prevention and overall performance improvement. Personalized nutrition plans tailored to individual needs and specific conditions, including those of athletes with spinal cord injuries or from various sports disciplines, are crucial for optimizing outcomes. The study highlights that integrating protein and nutritional strategies into training and recovery programs can significantly enhance athletic performance and reduce the risk of injuries. Effective injury management, coupled with appropriate protein utilization, plays a pivotal role in achieving better recovery rates and improving overall health. By adopting these evidence-based strategies, athletes can better meet their performance goals and enhance their overall well-being. This research underscores the importance of a comprehensive and personalized approach to nutrition and injury management in sports health, offering valuable insights for optimizing athletic training and recovery practices

Abstract

The study conducted at the Guna Budi Bakti Foundation in Medan Labuhan focused on the impact of Brisk Walking Exercise on the fitness level of elderly individuals. With a sample size of 10 participants with an age range of 60 to 72 years. the research employed a pre-test and post-test experimental design over three weeks, with sessions held five times a week. Results indicated a significant improvement in fitness levels post-intervention, with participants transitioning from very poor to good fitness categories. Descriptive analyses and statistical tests confirmed the efficacy of the exercise program. The study underscores the importance of tailored exercise regimens in addressing age-related declines in fitness and promoting overall well-being among the elderly. Brisk walking, being accessible and adaptable, emerges as a practical aerobic activity for this demographic. The findings highlight the need for proactive measures to support healthy aging and emphasize the potential of structured exercise programs in enhancing the quality of life for elderly individuals. Continued efforts to promote physical activity among the elderly are crucial for sustaining their health and vitality in the aging process.
