Exploring the acute recovery effects of dry cupping therapy and electrical stimulation on anaerobic performance metrics in active individuals: A quasi-experimental crossover study.

Background: This quasi-experimental crossover study aimed to examine the acute effects of dry cupping therapy (DCT) and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on fatigue and perceived exertion in anaerobic performance among physically active individuals.

Methods: Twelve male participants (mean age: 24.1 ± 2.

Age- and sex-specific differences in repetitive sprinting in 9-14-year-olds living in Turkey.

Background: Since children's daily activities are mostly anaerobic, it is important to assess anaerobic performance as part of the physical assessment. Therefore, running speed, power, and heart rate during repetitive sprints were investigated.

Method: A total of 118 children participated (mean age:11.
