Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Thank you for your excellent responses to the first edition of this Special Issue. In this second edition, we maintain the focus on similar topics, since practicing water sports brings a number of benefits both in terms of improving health and physical fitness. By practicing and mastering the technical elements in water sports, you gain a number of useful skills, such as the ability to move in the aquatic environment and to protect yourself against hazards in the aquatic environment. It is undeniable that selected physical activities in the aquatic environment affect human health. Consider general and special physical fitness, which is the basis for the success of athletes in water sports, and its monitoring, which allows you to assess the effectiveness of training and identify any errors in training carried out in the aquatic environment. When modeling various forms of activity or impact on humans in water-related conditions, the training programs can be modified through the use of various forms of control, which allows one to determine the optimal possibilities of influencing the athlete/human in relation to the conditions of practicing water-related activities. This Special Issue, “The implications of water sports for training, the environment and health”, aims to present the results of various forms of control and the effects of progress in sports training, as well as pro-health, when practicing sports and recreational physical activity in an aquatic environment. The results of research presenting innovative issues in the field of the development of physical fitness and the assessment of the methods used in sports training in individual sports disciplines based on the water environment, as well as solving problems related to the health-promoting effects of water on humans from various perspectives, are particularly welcome.
