Appropriate Warm Up Drills for Children. Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance,
94(6), 67-68.
The warm-up is the most important part of the physical education classes, where the student’s
interest and attention are drawn and motivated towards the lesson purpose. However, many physical
education teachers do not give enough attention to the beginning and warm-up part of the lesson
when planning their lessons. Faigenbaum & McFarland (2007) stated that warm-up activities help
prepare students for dynamic activities and increase their lesson time with physical activity. Warmup in physical education classes is a part that should emphasize, primarily since it constitutes a
basis for the main phase. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to provide some developmentally
appropriate warm-up examples to increase the quality of the physical education lesson.

depression through positive modulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). A review
based on 100 manuscripts over 20 years. Frontiers in Physiology, (14), 1102526. doi:
10.3389/fphys.2023.1102526
The aim of this review was to explore the relevant neurobiology and the association between
peripheral levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and acute and short to long-term
exercise regimes, as well as its relation to depression and antidepressant treatment. A 20-year
literature search was conducted. The screening process resulted in 100 manuscripts.
Antidepressants as well as acute exercise, particularly high-intensity, elevates BDNF in healthy
humans and clinical populations, as evidenced from aerobic and resistance-based studies. Although
exercise is increasingly recognised in the management of depression, acute and short-term exercise
studies have failed to establish a relationship between the severity of depression and changes in
peripheral BDNF. The latter rapidly returns to baseline, possibly indicating a quick re-uptake by
the brain, aiding its neuroplasticity functions. The timescale of administration needed for the
antidepressants to stimulate biochemical changes is longer than similar increases with acute
exercise.

Program Improves the Quality of Life an Adult Male with Autism Spectrum Disorders: A Case
Report. Physical Culture and Sport Studies and Research. 99, 1-10.
The purpose of this single case study was to investigate the eff ects of the WATSU training program
(WTP) on 21 years old male with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This study used a high
level of individual and structured interventions to improve the underperforming adaptive
functioning areas like social and academic skills in ASD. The individualized intervention of WTP
was completed in fi ve days using critical verbal and bodily language, technical demonstration,
taking turns, basic skills, and timely feedback in a social and sensory-isolated environment. The
results were collected via in-training observation, semi-structured family and athletic trainer
interviews to evaluate the participant's condition before and after the WTP. The structured
