Study on High Jumpers on the Word
Ovidius University Annals, Series Physical Education and Sport / SCIENCE, MOVEMENT AND HEALTH Vol. XII, ISSUE 2 Supplement 2012, Romania The journal is indexed in: Ebsco, SPORTDiscus, INDEX COPERNICUS JOURNAL MASTER LIST, DOAJ DIRECTORY OF OPEN ACCES JOURNALS, Caby, Gale Cengace Learning STUDY ON HIGH JUMPERS ON THE WORD GHEORGHE DANIEL1 Abstract Purpose. This work has proposed that purpose, to separate the essential data for selection and training high performance athletes in the perspective of major international competition. Methods. As research methods I used the case study, observation and statistics. Results. For the final selection to the Olympics, to accede to one of the medals, the athlete’s performance should be over 2.30 m. If we have several athletes with special performances, we should focus primarily on those with a richer experience, with several international competitions, so a little older. Conclusions. In 2 of the 5 Olympics, the performance for the first place is equal to the average top, which confirms first hypothesis. The top average age is 24 years and 7 months which confirms the second hypothesis. The third hypothesis is confirmed with the observation that for the Olympics the performance is the supreme criterion, the height isn’t a decisive criterion (there are medalists with height below top average). The hypothesis of the athlete’s weight isn’t confirmed, recording an average of 77,36 kg. We only have significant correlation between athlete’s height and weight. Key words: athletes, performance, statistics. Introduction the essential data for selection and training high The present study is an analysis of the finalists performance athletes in the perspective of major from the last two Olympics and the first three of the international competition.

All Time Men's World Ranking Leader
All Time Men’s World Ranking Leader EVER WONDER WHO the overall best performers have been in our authoritative World Rankings for men, which began with the 1947 season? Stats Editor Jim Rorick has pulled together all kinds of numbers for you, scoring the annual Top 10s on a 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis. First, in a by-event compilation, you’ll find the leaders in the categories of Most Points, Most Rankings, Most No. 1s and The Top U.S. Scorers (in the World Rankings, not the U.S. Rankings). Following that are the stats on an all-events basis. All the data is as of the end of the 2019 season, including a significant number of recastings based on the many retests that were carried out on old samples and resulted in doping positives. (as of April 13, 2020) Event-By-Event Tabulations 100 METERS Most Points 1. Carl Lewis 123; 2. Asafa Powell 98; 3. Linford Christie 93; 4. Justin Gatlin 90; 5. Usain Bolt 85; 6. Maurice Greene 69; 7.

The real world CONCRETE RENOVATION These pictures show a typical working place where TST protection for UHP water jetting is needed. A Falch Trailjet is used for blasting concrete off a bridge. The man is wearing an apron and hand protection from TST Sweden. Photo Falch GmbH in Germany www.falch.com 2 GAS FIRE TST Smart Hose is used to seal off a heavy gas fire. The heat from the fire threatens to set the whole block on fire! The Smart Hose produces a wall off water which keeps the fire and heat under control and lets firefighters concentrate on other important matters.

Already to the Olympic Games in Athens 2004, the Swedish and Norwegian Olympic Committees decided to help their athletes with TST Cooling Vests. In time for the games in Beijing, they renovated and upgraded the vests. www.tst-sweden.se Anna-Carin Ahlquist is very good at tabletennis, and she is very positive, and she’s got MS. The TST Cooling Vest helps her to maintain a comfortable body temperature which really helps her to perform at high level. Several Championship wins are proof of that!

The Sports Gene by David Epstein (338 Pages, 2013) a Summary
The Sports Gene by David Epstein (338 pages, 2013) A Summary Introduction – In Search of Sports Genes Imagine the genome (all 23,000 or so regions of DNA that contain genes) as a 23,000-page recipe book that resides at the centre of every human cell and provides direct instructions – or genes - for building proteins. Some of the 23,000 pages have instructions for an array of functions, and if one page is moved, altered or torn out, then some of the other 22,999 pages may suddenly contain new instructions. The instructional pages, that is, interact with one another. In the years following the sequencing of the human genome in 2003, sports scientists tried to pick single genes that they guessed would influence athleticism. However, it was found that that single genes usually have effects so tiny as to be undetectable in small studies. Further most of the genes for easily measurable traits such as height have eluded detection. Slowly but surely scientists have moved beyond single gene studies to explore the combination of genetic endowments that impacts athleticism. Further they have also started to explore how the interplay of biological endowments (nature) and rigorous training (nurture) impacts athleticism. The broad truth is that nature and nurture are so interlaced in any realm of athletic performance that the answer is usually both. But we cant stop here. We need to ask – 1) How specifically might nature and nurture be at work here 2) How much does each contribute. This book attempts to answer these questions through an exploration of genetic research and what is known about the innate gifts and abilities of elite athletes.
