PHYSIOLOGICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL MONITORING IN DANCESPORT ATHLETES

ABSTRACT Introduction The dancesport is an emerging sports competition that integrates competitive sports and dance; college students have been using the training for aesthetic purposes in body delineation. However, the biochemical alterations are still underexplored. Objective Explore the physiological and biochemical changes caused by dancesport. Methods The volunteers were submitted to a two-week high-intensity dancesport protocol. Changes in physiological and biochemical indicators were monitored before and after the experiment. Results The athletes exhibited individual changes in biochemical indicators (P
