An international study compared professional and amateur athletes' knowledge and understanding of this type of training According to the results, just 25 percent of amateurs are assessed and monitored by specialists.

Inactivity reduces people's muscle strength It only takes two weeks of not using their legs for young people to lose a third of their muscular strength, leaving them on par with a person who is 40-50 years their senior, new research shows.
Researchers uncover epigenetic switches that turn stem cells into blood vessel cells A molecular mechanism that directs embryonic stem cells to mature into endothelial cells -- the specialized cells that form blood vessels -- has been discovered by researchers. Understanding the processes initiated by this mechanism could help scientists more efficiently convert stem cells into endothelial cells for use in tissue repair, or for engineering blood vessels to bypass blockages in the heart.
Digital messages on vehicle windshields make driving less safe Augmented-reality head-up displays (AR-HUDs) that present digital images on windshields to alert drivers to everything from possible collisions to smartphone activity, are meant to make driving safer. But researchers say they are a threat to safety, as drivers frequently need to divide their attention to deal with this added visual information.
