The aim of the study was to assess the effect of cold water immersion on changes in blood lactate concentration during post-exercise recovery in swimmers subjected to2-minute exercise test (front crawl swimming movements) using a VASA Swim Ergometer, with the maximum arm speed movements, as during the freestyle technique. The study covered 11 professional swimmers of the MKP Szczecin club, tested twice with a two-week interval. Each participant performed an exercise test twice, once with a passive recovery period, and the second time with cold water immersion after exercise, as a method potentially supporting the post-exercise recovery process. Each time before the test, immediately after and at 3, 6 and 9 minutes after exercise, the concentration of lactate in the capillary blood was measured. Statistical analysis of the obtained results showed that cold water immersion applied immediately after exercise resulted in a faster reduction of lactate concentration. The conducted research confirms that cold water immersion used in post-exercise recovery may be an effective method of restoring optimal physical fitness as part of the training process.

Introduction Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the respiratory system that results in a reduced airflow exhaled by respiratory tract, accompanied by a group of characteristic clinical symptoms: cough, dyspnoea, chest tightness and wheezing. Asthma, due to the course and treatment process, may modify the quality of life (QoL). Assessment of the quality of life in patients with asthma, including the degree of disease control, Body Mass Index (BMI) and ciggaret smoking. Material and methods The research was carried out among 124 patients with asthma. Data were collected by Internet using a diagnostic survey method consisting of the author’s questionnaire, the Asthma Control Test (ACT) and Saint George’s Hospital Questionnaire (SGRQ). The results were processed in the R program. In statistical analysis Spearman’s rho, Anderson-Darling test (Test AD), Mann-Whitney U test and the Kruskal-Wallis test were used. Statistical significance was accepted for p ≤ 0.05. Results Research results showed a deterioration in the quality of life of asthmatics. People with better disease control had a significantly higher quality of life. Patients with a higher BMI had a significantly lower quality of life (“Symptoms”, “Impact on life” domain, global score). Smoking cigarettes did not influence the quality of life. Conclusions Determinants of worse quality of life in asthma patients are primarily: poor control of the disease and a high BMI.

The aim of this study was verification whether an 8-week-long swimming exercise training would induce adaptive changes in body weight in rats and whether possible changes would depend on aquatic environment temperature and animal sex. The exercisetrained groups swam 4 minutes a day, five days a week during eight week of housing. Exercise was performed by swimming in glass tanks containing tap water maintained according to group at 5 ±2°C (cold group) and 36 ±2°C (thermal neutral group). Before and after each week of the experiment, rats were weighed. When comparing the nature of changes in the body weight of rats exposed to swimming exercise training in cold water, attention should be paid to their dependence on sex. There were statistically significant changes in the nature of changes in body weight between male rats and female rats of the cold group (5°C) as early as experimental week 2 until the end of the experiment (p < 0.001). Interestingly, the females exposed to swimming exercise training at 5°C were the only group in which an increase in body weight occurred during experimental week 8 in relation to baseline values.

Aging of the body is irreversible and inevitable. Declining birthrate and the gradual increase in life expectancy means that societies in Europe, including Poland, are aging. According to forecasts, by 2030 every 4th Pole will become a senior. Therefore, the national health policy will have to meet the expectations and needs of its aging population (Osinski 2002). A huge role will be played by local, selfgovernment authorities. Implementation of programs activating the elderly can contribute to improving their quality of life and prevent social exclusion of a significant part of the society. The aim of the study was to assess the quality of life of seniors in Dobra commune. The study showed that the subjects were satisfied with life, well-educated, open to new technologies, and physically active. The degree of satisfaction with their current life situation depended on the level of education and degree of nutrition, but did not depend on gender, age, marital status, hobbies, and state of health. This is the research article.

Starzenie się organizmu jest procesem nieodwracalnym i nieuniknionym. Malejący przyrost naturalny oraz sukcesywne wydłużanie się długości ludzkiego życia powoduje, że społeczeństwo Europy, w tym także Polski, starzeje się. Według prognoz, w 2030 roku co czwarty Polak osiągnie próg starości. Dlatego polityka zdrowotna państwa będzie musiała sprostać oczekiwaniom i potrzebom starzejącego się społeczeństwa (Osiński 2002). Ogromna rola przypada władzom samorządowym. Wdrażanie programów aktywizujących osoby starsze może przyczynić się do poprawy jakości ich życia i przeciwdziałać wykluczeniu społecznemu znaczącej części społeczeństwa. Celem pracy była ocena jakości życia seniorów w gminie Dobra. Z przeprowadzonych badań wynika, że badani seniorzy to osoby zadowolone z życia, dobrze wykształcone, otwarte na nowoczesne technologie, aktywne fizycznie. Stopień zadowolenia z ich obecnej sytuacji życiowej zależy od poziomu wykształcenia i stopnia odżywienia, natomiast nie zależy od płci, wieku, stanu cywilnego, posiadanego hobby oraz stanu zdrowia.

Старение организма – необратимый и неизбежный процесс. Снижающийся естественный прирост населения и постепенное удлинение жизни человека приводят к тому, что население Европы, в том числе и Польши, стареет. По прогнозам в 2030 г. каждый четвертый поляк достигнет порога старости. Поэтому политика государства в области здравоохранения должна будет справиться с ожиданиями и потребностями стареющего общества (Osiński 2002). Огромная роль выпадает на долю органов самоуправления. Внедрение программ по активизации лиц преклонного возраста может способствовать повышению качества их жизни и противодействовать социальному отторжению значительной части общества. Цель работы – дать оценку качества жизни пожилых людей в гмине Добра (Dobra). Проведенные обследования показывают, что обследуемые пожилые люди – лица, довольные своей жизнью, хорошо образованные, открытые на современные технологии, физически активные. Степень удовлетворения их нынешней бытовой ситуацией зависит от уровня образования и степени питания, не зависит же от пола, возраста, гражданского состояния, хобби и состояния здоровья.

In order to achieve higher efficiency of training and thus better athletic performance, new research and diagnostic methods are constantly being developed, particularly those that are non-invasive. One such a method is thermography, suitable for quantitative and therefore objective evaluation of variables, such as changes in the temperature of the skin covering working muscles. The aim of this study was to use a thermal imaging infrared camera to evaluate temperature changes of symmetric body surfaces over symmetrically working muscles of male scullers after exercising on a two-oared rowing ergometer and compare these to asymmetrically working muscles of handball players after an endurance training session containing elements of an actual game. In the scullers, the mean temperature of body surfaces was always lower post than pre exercise, with no significant differences in an average temperature drop between the opposite sides, indicating that the work of the muscles involved in the physical exertion on the rowing ergometer was symmetrical. In contrast, in the handball players, skin temperatures in symmetric areas over the asymmetrically working muscles showed statistically significant differences between sides, which was associated with the functional asymmetry of training. This study indicates that thermal imaging may be useful for coaches in the evaluation of technical preparations in sports in which equal involvement of symmetric muscles is a condition of success, e.g. in scullers.

Introduction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the time of covering a distance of 1000 m on a rowing ergometer by competitors of the Academic Sports Association of the Pomeranian Medical University and to relate the achieved results to the best results from the Polish Rowing Ergometer Academic Championships. Methods. 28 rowers were tested in the 1000 m "maximum" test (1000TM/t). In addition, correlations were sought between the time and power values obtained in the 1000 TM/t with the values of selected anthropometric indices (height and weight, body mass index BMI), hand grip strength, heart rate and body composition components (free fat mass FFM, skeletal muscle mass SMM). Results. The significant correlation between the time and power output in 1000TM/t and values of FFM, SMM, handgrip strength test as well as resting HR have been observed. Conclusion. The results obtained at 1000TM/t can be considered promising for the further training stage due to the fact that the study was conducted on a rowing ergometer under training conditions prior to a special training mesocycle shaping strength and speed, while the athletes competing at the event to which our results were related were in peak competitive performance.
