Open Access

Online First is a feature that enables the publication of final revised articles online before their inclusion in a printed issue. This accelerates the dissemination of research findings and ensures that your authors' work reaches the audience promptly.

Articles published through Online First are assigned a DOI upon their online posting. They should be cited as follows:

Author(s). Title of the article. Exercise and Quality of Life. Advance online publication. DOI:10.31382/xxxx

After assignment to a final issue, citations can include the volume and page numbers in addition to the DOI.

Once articles are allocated to a specific issue, their hosting transitions from the Online First page to the main journal archive. The DOI ensures persistent accessibility.

Citations to Online First articles are counted toward the journal's Impact Factor if other indexing criteria are met. This promotes earlier engagement with the published work.

Online First articles are considered final but not definitive until assigned to a specific issue. Errors identified in the online version can be corrected before the final issue publication.

DIFFERENCES IN SOME MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND THIGH MUSCLE FORCE OF BOUNCE LEG BETWEEN FOOTBALL PLAYERS AND GOALKEEPERS

The aim of this study is to determine the differences in certain morphological
characteristics and thigh muscle force of bounce leg between football players and
goalkeepers. The examined group consisted of 15 goalkeepers and 14 players, aged 15 ñ 18
years, from Vojvodina cadet league. Five parameters were tested by means of isokinetic
dynamometer, and 6 morphological factors were measured. The differences between sub
samples were gained by multivariable and univariable analysis of variance. Multivariable
analysis was used to determine significant difference at the level (p =.00), and we determined
statistically significant difference on individual basis in body height and in muscle mass
percentage. Almost equal results in thigh muscle force of bounce leg among the subjects and
no difference in other variables can be explained by identical training process for players and
goalkeepers. The data gathered demonstrate that in the future it will be necessary to
implement different training process, specially designed for goalkeepers.
