Effectiveness of Sports Massage in the Prevention and Rehabilitation of Muscle Injuries in Track and Field Jump Athletes: A Systematic Literature Review
type: item
description: Purpose of the study: This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of sports massage interventions in preventing and rehabilitating muscle injuries among track and field jump athletes, examining the impact on injury incidence, recovery time, performance outcomes, and functional restoration. Materials and methods: A comprehensive systematic literature review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. Five electronic databases (PubMed, SPORTDiscus, Web of Science, Scopus, and CINAHL) were searched from inception to October 2024. Inclusion criteria encompassed randomized controlled trials, quasi-experimental studies, and cohort studies examining sports massage interventions in track and field jump athletes (long jump, triple jump, high jump, pole vault) aged 16 years and above. Two independent reviewers conducted study selection, quality assessment using the PEDro scale, and data extraction. Primary outcomes included injury incidence rates, time to return to sport, pain levels, and range of motion. Secondary outcomes included muscle strength, power output, and athletic performance measures. Results: Eighteen studies met the inclusion criteria, comprising 847 track and field jump athletes (mean age: 22.4 ± 3.8 years). Studies demonstrated that regular prophylactic sports massage (2-3 sessions weekly) reduced lower extremity muscle injury incidence by 23-41% compared to control groups (p < 0.05). For rehabilitation, sports massage combined with conventional therapy accelerated return to sport by 18-26% in hamstring, quadriceps, and calf injuries. Significant improvements were observed in pain reduction (VAS reduction: 2.8-4.2 points), range of motion (8-15% increase), and perceived recovery (p < 0.01). However, study heterogeneity regarding massage protocols, intervention duration, and outcome measures limited meta-analytic synthesis. Conclusions: Evidence supports the integration of sports massage in both prevention and rehabilitation protocols for track a…

Physical Literacy and Health Education: A Systematic Review of Educational Outcomes
type: item
description: Purpose: This systematic review examines the relationship between physical literacy (PL) and health education, with a focus on the educational outcomes generated by school-based interventions targeting students from primary through secondary levels. It aims to synthesise evidence on how PL-oriented programmes influence physical, cognitive, affective, and social dimensions of student development. Materials and Methods: Following PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines, five electronic databases were systematically searched: Dimensions, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed/MEDLINE, and ERIC. Search terms combined 'physical literacy,' 'health education,' 'physical education,' 'educational outcomes,' 'learning outcomes,' and related population terms (student*, school*, adolescen*, youth). Publications were limited to 2022–2026. Independent reviewers screened and extracted data; quality was assessed using adapted ROBIS and GRADE frameworks. Results: From 1,889 records identified, 38 studies met inclusion criteria. Holistic PL interventions demonstrated consistent positive effects on the physical domain (motor competence, physical activity participation) and moderate effects on affective outcomes (self-efficacy, motivation, enjoyment). Cognitive and social outcomes showed mixed evidence. Teacher competency, implementation quality, and policy alignment emerged as critical moderating factors. Significant heterogeneity was noted across study designs, PL assessment instruments, and reported outcomes. Conclusions: Physical literacy interventions within health education contexts offer measurable benefits across several educational outcome domains, particularly for physical competence and affective development. Future research must prioritise standardised PL assessment, longitudinal designs, and equitable implementation frameworks to advance the evidence base and inform national policy.

Physical Fitness Profiles of Beginner Volleyball Players in a Developing Regional Academy: Insights for Youth Performance Development
type: item
description: Purpose of the study: This study aimed to profile the physical fitness characteristics — muscular strength, cardiorespiratory endurance, agility, speed, and coordination — of beginner volleyball players at Yuso Volleyball Academy, West Kalimantan, Indonesia, and to examine sex-based differences in order to inform evidence-based youth performance development. Materials and methods: A descriptive cross-sectional survey design was employed. Twenty-five beginner volleyball players (boys, n = 11; girls, n = 14; aged 8–12 years) were assessed using a standardised test battery comprising the 60-second push-up test (strength), the 12-minute Cooper run (cardiorespiratory endurance), the Illinois agility test (agility), the 30-metre sprint (speed), and the volleyball wall-pass test over 30 seconds (sport-specific coordination). Descriptive statistics (mean ± standard deviation) were computed, and independent-samples t-tests with Cohen's d effect sizes were used to examine sex differences (α = 0.05). Results: Forty-seven studies (n = 3,284; 19 countries; 2000–2024) met inclusion criteria; 42 were pooled Boys outperformed girls in strength (41.36 ± 4.82 vs. 32.14 ± 3.97 repetitions; p < 0.001; d = 2.11), endurance (2,520 ± 180 vs. 2,210 ± 165 m; p < 0.001; d = 1.81), and speed (4.32 ± 0.24 vs. 4.68 ± 0.29 s; p = 0.003; d = 1.34). Differences in agility (10.21 ± 0.56 vs. 10.45 ± 0.61 s; p = 0.32) and coordination (28.09 ± 3.11 vs. 26.21 ± 2.88 repetitions; p = 0.13) were not statistically significant. Across the cohort, agility, speed, and coordination were classified as 'good', whereas cardiorespiratory endurance was the lowest-rated component ('fair'). Conclusions: Beginner volleyball players at the academy displayed a fair-to-good overall fitness profile, with cardiorespiratory endurance identified as the most prominent developmental priority for both sexes. Agility, speed, and coordination should be maintained through varied, sport-specific stimuli, while strength training s…

Barriers to Physical Activity Among Adolescent Girls During Menstruation: A Global Systematic Literature Review
type: item
description: Purpose: Menstruation constitutes a critical, yet frequently overlooked, determinant of physical activity (PA) participation among adolescent girls globally. This systematic literature review aimed to identify, synthesize, and critically evaluate the multidimensional barriers — physiological, psychological, socio-cultural, environmental, and institutional — that impede regular PA engagement among adolescent girls (aged 10–19 years) during menstruation, and to provide evidence-based insights for scholars, health practitioners, educators, and policymakers. Materials for Analysis: Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, a systematic search was conducted across three major academic databases — Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed — encompassing peer-reviewed studies published between January 2013 and December 2023. Boolean search strategies combining terms related to menstruation, physical activity, barriers, and adolescent girls were applied. Studies were eligible if they focused on girls aged 10–19, were published in English, and empirically addressed barriers to PA during menstruation. Following rigorous screening and quality appraisal, a total of 42 studies from 28 countries were included in the final synthesis. Results: Five overarching thematic clusters of barriers were identified: (1) physiological barriers, predominantly dysmenorrhea, fatigue, and perceived physical discomfort; (2) psychological barriers, encompassing menstrual stigma, body image concerns, and fear of leakage; (3) socio-cultural barriers, including cultural taboos, religious norms, and family-imposed restrictions; (4) institutional and environmental barriers, manifested as inadequate school sanitation facilities, lack of menstrual hygiene products, and unsupportive physical education policies; and (5) informational barriers, reflecting poor menstrual health literacy and inadequate teacher training. Notably, socio-cultural and environmental barriers were most pronounced in low- and middle-income countrie…

The Effectiveness of Massage Therapy in Treating Sports-Related Muscle Injuries: An Evidence-Based Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
type: item
description: Purpose of the study: Sports-related muscle injuries, including strains, tears, contusions, and delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS), account for up to half of all sports injuries and are a major cause of time-loss in athletes. Massage therapy is widely used as an adjunctive treatment, yet its efficacy across injury types and athletic populations remains variably reported. To systematically evaluate and quantify the effectiveness and safety of massage therapy for sports-related muscle injuries in adult athletes, and to explore dose–response relationships, moderating factors, and remaining evidence gaps. Materials and methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis followed PRISMA 2020 guidelines. PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, EMBASE, and CENTRAL were searched from inception to 31 October 2024. Eligible studies included randomized controlled trials, quasi-experimental studies, and prospective cohorts evaluating massage therapy for sports-related muscle injuries in adults, compared with placebo, usual care, other therapeutic modalities, or no treatment. Primary outcomes were pain, range of motion (ROM), functional recovery, return-to-play, and muscle damage biomarkers (e.g. serum creatine kinase [CK]). Risk of bias was assessed using RoB 2 for trials and Newcastle–Ottawa Scale for observational studies. Random-effects meta-analyses were conducted; heterogeneity was quantified with I², and certainty of evidence graded using GRADE. Results: Forty-seven studies (n = 3,284; 19 countries; 2000–2024) met inclusion criteria; 42 were pooled meta-analytically. Massage therapy significantly reduced pain versus control (standardized mean difference [SMD] = −0.87; 95% CI −1.12 to −0.62; p < 0.001), improved ROM (SMD = 0.64; 95% CI 0.38 to 0.91; p < 0.001), and reduced serum CK (SMD = −0.64; 95% CI −1.04 to −0.25; p = 0.001). Effects on DOMS were large, peaking 48–72 h post-intervention (SMD up to −1.51). Deep tissue massage showed greater pain reduction than Swedish, sports-s…

Traditional Rubber Jumping Game as a Play-Based Intervention to Improve Fine and Gross Motor Development in Early Childhood: Evidence from Two Classroom Action Research Cycles
type: item
description: Purpose of the study: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the rubber jumping game (permainan lompat karet), a traditional Indonesian game, in enhancing both fine and gross motor skills among Group B children (aged 5–6 years) at RA Asiah Pekanbaru, Riau Province, Indonesia. Materials and methods: A classroom action research (CAR) design was employed across two cycles, involving 10 participants (6 males, 4 females). Data were collected through direct observation using structured observation sheets with a four-point developmental rating scale (BB, MB, BSH, BSB). Quantitative descriptive and qualitative analyses were applied to evaluate children’s motor development progression across pre-cycle, Cycle I, and Cycle II phases. Results: Pre-intervention assessment revealed critically low mean scores for fine motor skills (6.00%) and gross motor skills (6.10%). Following Cycle I, fine motor scores increased to 12.00% and gross motor scores to 9.00%. After Cycle II, substantial improvements were observed with fine motor scores reaching 20.60% and gross motor scores reaching 18.40%. Classical learning completeness achieved 80%, categorized as “very high” based on established success criteria. By Cycle II, 70% of children attained “Developing Very Well” (BSB) status for both motor domains. Conclusions: The rubber jumping game demonstrated significant efficacy in enhancing both fine and gross motor skills in early childhood settings. The integration of traditional games into the early childhood education curriculum offers a culturally relevant, cost-effective, and enjoyable pedagogical strategy for holistic motor development.

Shooting Accuracy in Junior High School Football Extracurricular Activities: Study Examines How Leg Muscle Power and Ankle Coordination Relate
type: item
description: Purpose of the study: Shooting accuracy is a fundamental skill in football that significantly influences match outcomes. The relationship between biomechanical factors such as leg muscle power and ankle coordination with shooting precision remains understudied in adolescent populations. Purpose of the study: This research aimed to investigate the correlation between leg muscle power, ankle coordination, and shooting accuracy among junior high school football players participating in extracurricular activities. Materials and methods: Twenty-four male students (age 13.2 ± 0.8 years) from SMP Negeri 4 Lubuk Pakam participated in this cross-sectional study. Leg muscle power was assessed using vertical jump test, ankle coordination through single-leg balance test, and shooting accuracy via standardized target shooting protocol. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple regression analysis in SPSS v27. Results: Significant positive correlations were found between leg muscle power and shooting accuracy (r = 0.742, p < 0.001) and ankle coordination and shooting accuracy (r = 0.681, p < 0.001). Combined variables explained 67.3% of shooting accuracy variance (R² = 0.673, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Leg muscle power and ankle coordination are significant predictors of shooting accuracy in junior high school football players. Training programs should emphasize both power development and proprioceptive exercises to enhance shooting performance.
