Analysis of lipid profile before and after a simulated Brazilian jiu-jitsu para-sport fight: Multiple case analysis

Analysis of energy pathways is useful in helping to understand adaptations to specific sports practices, which vary according to the type of effort and individual characteristics of the athletes. In this sense, this study aimed to describe the physiological changes related to lipid markers in ampute...

description Analysis of energy pathways is useful in helping to understand adaptations to specific sports practices, which vary according to the type of effort and individual characteristics of the athletes. In this sense, this study aimed to describe the physiological changes related to lipid markers in amputee athletes who practice para-sport jiu-jitsu. This is an observational study, which included three male amputee athletes, aged between 41 and 46 years old and with more than 24 months of experience at a professional level. The collection procedures included the verification of anthropometric measurements (body mass and height), handgrip strength, body fat and lipid profile, before and after a simulated para-sport jiu-jitsu fight. The main results of the study refer to elevations in the values of total lipids (13.2 %); total cholesterol (11.8 %); and phospholipids (7.7 %) in the three participants. The findings of other indices had more discrepant results, ranging from 14 % (very low density lipoprotein and triacylglycerol) to 65 % (high density lipoprotein). In addition, a high percentage of body fat was observed among the participants. The data presented require attention, since understanding metabolic demands is crucial to provide favorable conditions for sports practice at safe levels and expected sports performance.
