SPRINT VERSUS ISOLATED ECCENTRIC TRAINING: COMPARATIVE EFFECTS ON HAMSTRING ARCHITECTURE AND PERFORMANCE IN SOCCER PLAYERS.

Sprint versus isolated eccentric training: Comparative effects on hamstring architecture and performance in soccer players.

AIMS:The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of hamstring eccentric (NHE) strength training versus sprint training programmed as complements to regular soccer practice, on sprint performance and its mechanical underpinnings, as well as biceps femoris long head (BFlh) architecture.METHODS:In this prospective interventional control study

Evolutionary autonomous agents and the nature of apraxia

Abstract Background Evolutionary autonomous agents are robots or robot simulations whose controller is a dynamical neural network and whose evolution occurs autonomously under the guidance of a fitness function without the detailed or explicit direction of an external programmer.They are embodied agents with a simple neural network controller and a
