Download or read book The Effect of Mid flight Whole body and Trunk Rotation on Landing Mechanics written by Meghan Critchley and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Altered trunk positions have been observed when anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries occur. The purpose of the current study was to quantify the effect of whole body and trunk rotation on the biomechanics of jump-landings associated with ACL loading. Forty (20 male, 20 female) participants performed three jump-landing-jump trials in 5 separate conditions with or without whole-body and trunk rotation. Compared with most other conditions, the trunk rotated ipsilateral (TRI) condition resulted in increased stance time, increased peak GRF, decreased knee flexion angles, increased knee valgus and internal rotation angles at initial contact and during the first 100 ms of landing. Increased GRF and decreased knee flexion angles were also found in the whole-body contralateral (WBC) condition. The TRI condition resulted in landing biomechanics associated with increased ACL loading and injury risk. The findings may provide information for understanding ACL injury mechanism and developing injury risk screening and prevention strategies.

Download or read book Sport Mechanics for Coaches written by Brendan Burkett and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2010-01-22 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most coaches are reluctant to study sport mechanics; from experience they equate it with boring texts loaded with formulas, calculations, and scientific terminology. That’s not the case with Sport Mechanics for Coaches. This updated third edition provides an introductory look at the mechanics of sport in a manner that’s understandable and usable for the novices in the field. Author Brendan Burkett—Paralympic gold medalist and world-record holder—pours his love of sport and his expertise as an award-winning engineer and biomechanics professor into this enhanced, revised, and reformatted text. Divided into three parts covering the fundamentals of sport mechanics, mechanical principles, and application of the knowledge to sport contexts, this text highlights real-life sporting achievements and the mechanics behind them. Various pedagogical aids including review questions and practical activities are featured, allowing students and coaches to gauge their understanding of key concepts chapter by chapter. Since the previous edition was published, technological advancements have expanded the coach’s and athlete’s toolbox. Sport Mechanics for Coaches includes nearly 150 illustrations and photos and all-new content to help readers understand and incorporate technology and state-of-the-art sport equipment to enhance training, identify errors in technique, and improve performance. Coaches, students, and athletes with a curiosity about how and why things work in the world of sport and a desire to improve performance will find Sport Mechanics for Coaches refreshingly easy to read, comprehend, and put into practice.

This book was released on 2017-03-20 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never before in the world of sports have coaches been privy to a method or style of practice that has handed them the reins to develop the best athletes in the world. One sport and one technique provide the necessary channels to follow addressing the very existence of a formula attributed to elite sporting success.The sport of tennis was used along with its collective technique in the forehand groundstroke, as the gateway to deliver to the coach and athlete a blueprint that encapsulates the requirements and demands vital in achieving a “top 10” ranking. A blueprint of the science and education, as one, is presented. The featured literature reviews, reiterated yet stylistically shaped with a multi-premise: to teach both the coach and athlete how to develop and achieve optimal performance success, synonymous with a “top 10” ranking, and to accommodate the academic: a guide on how to build, structure and freely evolve the literature review, serving as their own unique learning structures. Introducing the ground-breaking sports coaching phenomenon: the Optimal Performance Theory, and The V by Dr. B © – handing you what the sporting world has been awaiting: the formula behind optimal performance success.
