Abstract:

Although traditional prevention and management strategies for hamstring injuries have focussed on optimising muscle strength, flexibility and endurance, incidence and/or recurrence rates of these injuries remains high. A theoretical framework was developed considering additional factors that increase the stabilising demand of the hamstrings. These factors included loss of related stability at the knee and lumbopelvic regions and extrinsic factors during functional and sporting activities. The aims of this research were to determine whether electromyographic (EMG) derived hamstrings, quadriceps

Abstract:

Advances in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and analysis techniques have improved diagnosis and patient treatment pathways. Typically, image analysis requires substantial technical and medical expertise and MR images can su↵er from artefacts, echo and intensity inhomogeneity due to gradient pulse eddy currents and inherent e↵ects of pulse radiation on MRI radio frequency (RF) coils that complicates the analysis. Processing and analysing serial sections of MRI scans to measure tissue volume is an additional challenge as the shapes and the borders between neighbouring tissues change significant

Abstract:

Sprint performance is one of the most highly prized faculties in the vast majority of sports, from short accelerations seen in team sports to high maximal speeds reached in track and field events. The capacity to accelerate rapidly and to reach very high speeds is an extremely desirable quality across the sports world. Although many factors influence sprint performance, the ability to produce high horizontal ground reaction forces (GRFs) throughout the sprint seems the ultimate determinant. This ability is inclusive of mechanical properties of the muscles, morphological features and neural mec

Methods: Eighteen healthy subjects (10 females and 8 males, mean age 23 years, range 20-31) participated in the study.

Abstract:

Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between weightlifting performance (snatch, clean and jerk, and total) and variables obtained from the isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP). Methods: Twelve weightlifters, ranging from novice to advanced, performed the IMTP 10 days after a competition. Correlations were used to evaluate relationships between variables of the IMTP and absolute and scaled competition results. Results: Unscaled competition results correlated strongly with IRFD (0-200ms: r=0.567-0.645, 0-250ms: r=0.722-0.781) while results correlated weakly with Peak IRFD (

The influence that trunk and pelvis posture has on lower limb muscle activation in single leg stance is unknown. Normative surface EMG data on 8 hip and thigh muscles was collected in a single group containing 22 young asymptomatic males, monitored using the VICON motion analysis system. Paired clinically relevant test postures demonstrated changes in trunk position in the sagittal plane and pelvis position in the frontal plane had the greatest effect on muscle activation.

Abstract:

Repeat sprint ability has been investigated thoroughly, however optimal training methodology to improve RSA remains elusive. Both kinetic and physiological viewpoints have been used to scrutinize aspects of RSA including, initial sprint performance (anaerobic power), maximal cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2max), lactate threshold, anaerobic capacity (mean power), muscle activation (EMG), and local muscle oxygenation kinetics. To our knowledge no study has utilized maximal strength levels as a separate factor among a homogenous group of cardiorespiratory fitness individuals (as determined by peak
