Ten- and fifteen-meter sprints were conducted as previously described [22 (link)] using paired photocells (Racetime 2 SF, Microgate, Italy). Three trials interspersed by 6–8 min of rest were performed, and the best value (i.e., least number of seconds) was used for statistical analysis.

Prior to sprint testing, each participant performed a 5 min warm up, consisting of 3 min of running, change of direction activities and dynamic stretching. Participants ran 15 m from a standing position, with the front foot 0.2 m behind the starting photocell beam. Times at 15 m and 30 m were recorded by paired photocells (Racetime 2 SF, Microgate, Bolzano, Italy) that were located 1 m above the ground at the start and finish lines. Three trials were separated by 6 to 8 min of recovery, and the fastest trial was retained for further analyses.

Before the sprint testing, each participant performed a 5 min warm up, comprising 3 min of running, change in direction activities, and dynamic stretching. Participants ran 15 m from a standing position, with the front foot 0.2 m behind the starting photocell beam. Times at 15 and 30 m were measured by utilizing paired photocells (Racetime 2 SF, Microgate, Italy) that were located 1 m above the ground at the start and finish lines. Three trials were separated by 6–8 min of recovery, and the fastest trial was retained for further analyses.

Participants performed a 15 min warm up, consisting of 10 min running, change of direction activities, and dynamic stretching. Subsequently, participants sprinted 15 m from a standing position 0.2 m behind the first photocell beam 15 and 30 m sprint times were recorded by paired photocells (Racetime 2 SF, Microgate, Italy) located 1 m above the ground at the start and finish.

The 2,000 m walking test was used to determine the aerobic capacity of the subjects.22 (link) Before the test verbal instruction was given to all participants. The test was performed on an athletic track where the temperature was 18°C. The test consisted of two stages: first, the reference phase, warm-up (3-minute walk and stretching exercises) and second, the main test of ten laps, each 200 m long. Time was measured using photoelectric cells (Racetime 2 SF, Microgate, Bolzano, Italy) with an accuracy of 0.001 second. The start of the movement was signaled by the instructor. To evaluate the maximal oxygen capacity a mathematic formula was applied.

Tests were completed before training sessions. Using paired photocells (Racetime 2 SF, Microgate, Italy), 15 m sprints were performed. After three attempts with a rest period of six to eight minutes between each, the best achieved value (i.e., the fewest number of seconds) was used for statistical analysis. The Optojump photoelectronic system (Optojump Next, Microgate, Italy) was used to determine CMJ and SJ. The largest leap height from the four trials, each separated by 30 s of rest, was applied for statistical analysis. Postural control was measured using the Stork Balance Test [25 ]. T- Electronic timing sensors (photocells, Kit Racetime 2 SF, Microgate, Italy) were used to record the results of T-half test of the experiments. Subjects conducted two trials, with a three-minute break in between, and the best trial was chosen for statistical analysis [26 (link)].

The 2000-m walking test was used to determine aerobic capacity (36 (link)). Before the test, verbal instructions were given to all participants. The test consisted of two stages: the reference phase, consisting of a 3-min warm-up (walk and stretching exercises), and the main test, consisting of 10 laps of 200 m each, performed on a flat surface. Time was measured using photoelectric cells (Racetime 2 SF, Microgate) with an accuracy of 0.001 s. The start was signalled by the coach.
The functional fitness was assessed using the Senior Fitness Test specifically designed for evaluating elderly. The test consists of six components: (1) 30-s chair stand, (2) arm curl, (3) chair sit-and-reach, (4) back scratch, (5) 8-foot up-and-go, and (6) 2-min step. The test follows a specified order, with a 1-min rest period between each component. Prior to the test, the cohort was familiarized with each component, except for the 2-min step (37 (link)).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
