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.

Injuries in elite athletes
The purpose of this research was to review current research findings related to injuries in elite athletes. For the needs of the paper, professional and scientific literature was analyzed from prestigious scientific journals. The types of athletic injuries that occur are dependent on the athletic discipline. The most commonly injured sites in athletes are the front and back muscles of the thigh and in the ankle joint. The results of this study have indicated that the causes of most injuries are due to overstraining and overload syndrome. These causes often arise from training procedures that have been implemented inadequately and usually relate to the volume and intensity of training without the application of injury prevention techniques.
