ABSTRACT
RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar fatores motivacionais para a participação em aulas online de ginástica artística (GA) e a satisfação dos alunos quanto à qualidade dessas aulas. Uma amostra de 39 alunos respondeu ao Inventário de Motivação para Prática Desportiva e a um questionário estruturado para avaliação da qualidade das aulas online. Um total de 67%, 53% e 30% dos alunos consideraram "muito importante" os motivos relacionados à "competência esportiva", "saúde" e "amizade/lazer", respectivamente. Todas as dimensões avaliadas no questionário sobre a qualidade das aulas apresentaram satisfação superior a 75%. Portanto, a "Competência esportiva" é o principal fator motivacional para a prática de aulas online de GA. De maneira geral, os alunos se mostraram satisfeitos com a qualidade dessas aulas.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to analyse the motivational factors for artistic gymnastics (AG) online training sessions and the children's perception regarding the quality of this training. A sample of 39 children answered the Motivation for Sports Practice Inventory and a structured questionnaire to assess the quality of online sessions. A total of 67%, 53%, and 30% of the children reported the reasons related to "sports competence", "health", and "friendship/leisure" are "very important", respectively. All dimensions evaluated in the structured questionnaire showed a percentage of satisfaction greater than 75%. Therefore, "Sports competence" is the main motivational factor for participation in AG online training sessions. Overall, children were satisfied with the quality of this online training.
RESUMEN El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar factores de motivación para la participación en las clases de gimnasia artística (GA) en línea y satisfacción de los alumnos con respecto a las mismas. Una muestra de 39 alumnos respondió al Inventario de Motivación para la Práctica Deportiva y a un cuestionario que evaluaba las clases. Un total de 67%, 53% y 30% de los estudiantes consideraron "muy importantes" las razones relacionadas con "competencia deportiva", "salud" y "amistad/ocio", respectivamente. La calidad de las clases mostró una satisfacción superior al 75%. Por lo tanto, la "competencia deportiva" es el principal factor de motivación para la práctica de las clases online de AG. La mayoría de los estudiantes están satisfechos con la calidad de las clases.
ABSTRACT
Abstract Aim: This study determined the energy expenditure and effort intensity of athletes during women's artistic gymnastics training sessions. Methods: Ten gymnasts (age 10.9 ± 1.7 years) performed a test to estimate the maximum rate of oxygen uptake (VO2max), during which the maximum heart rate (HRmax) was also obtained. The heart rate (HR) of these gymnasts was recorded during five training sessions and then used to estimate the exercise intensity and energy expenditure. Results: Mean duration of training sessions was 4.08 ± 0.42 h, with mean HR corresponding to 137 ± 8 bpm or 69.0 ± 3.5% of HRmax. Gymnasts spent less training time at 90-100% HRmax compared to the other HR ranges (p < 0.05). Time spent at 60-70% and 70-80% was higher compared to 80-90% HRmax (p = 0.012 and p = 0.001, respectively). The training impulse was 239.2 ± 35.4 AU. Estimated energy expenditure was 768.3 ± 168.5 kcal, metabolic rate was 3.1 ± 0.6 kcal/min, and the metabolic equivalent of task (MET) corresponded to 6.1 ± 0.6. Conclusion: Young gymnasts performed prolonged and moderate-intensity training sessions that generated high energetic demands. This information is beneficial to gymnasts since the coaching team can use the data to control the training load and prescribe a proper diet.
