The Acute Effects Of Active Warm-up And Passive Warm-up On Passive Tension
Solley, Troyce (Kinesiology, 2007-08-23)The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of active warm-up (stationary cycling) and passive warm-up (heat pack) on the mechanical properties of the hamstring musculature in vivo. Passive tension measurements ... -
Effects Of Age And Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Techniques On Characteristics Of Muscle Fatigue In Females Trained In CPR Administration
Parekh, Jesal N (Kinesiology, 2007-09-17)Cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a widely popular and recommended assessment and intervention technique for life threatening conditions resulting from cardio-pulmonary disorders. As per the American Heart Association® ... -
Effects Of Concentric And Eccentric Contractions Of The Knee Extensors On Mechanical Work, Lactate Concentration, And Surface EMG
Campbell, Jeremiah Cedric (Kinesiology, 2007-09-17)The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of eccentric and concentric muscle contractions on the frequency and amplitude of EMG, torque, blood lactate, and the amount of work done. Ten college-aged males ... -
The Effects Of Pulsed Shortwave Diathermy And Stretch On The Torque-angle Relation Of The Calf (Plantar flexor) Muscles Association With Passive Stretch Both During And After Treatment
Schorr, Megan J (Kinesiology, 2007-08-23)Our objective was to assess the short-term effects of PSWD and stretch on the torque-angle relation of the calf both during and after PSWD treatment. We used a 3 X 4 and a 2 X 4 (Time X Treatment) crossover repeated measures ... -
The acute effects of a rotational medicine ball throw exercise on baseball pitching biomechanics
Rogers Sullivan, Avery Pierce; 0000-0002-6110-0000 (2019-06-03)The ability to throw at higher velocities with proper mechanics is very advantageous for baseball pitchers to increase performance and decrease injury risk. Pitching utilizes the movement of energy through the kinetic ... -
The effect of midsole cushioning on the kinetics, kinematics, and control of running
Prejean, Brian Joseph; 0000-0001-9781-397X (2018-08-03)The incidence of musculoskeletal injuries associated with the stress of running, known as running-related injuries (RRIs), has risen in conjunction with the resurgence of running as a health-related physical activity ... -
The Effects of Knee Joint Loading on Dynamic Tasks in Individuals Several Years Post-ACL Reconstruction
Decker, Meredith (2020-06-01)Joint loading of the lower extremity is studied to identify risk factors for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and to determine limb asymmetries. Asymmetrical loading in the lower extremity during ACL reconstruction ... -
Trunk Function in Manual Wheelchair Users in Static and Dynamic Conditions
Garner, Tyler D. (2020-06-04)The relationship between functional capacity and trunk control is of significant interest to a variety of people, from wheelchair sport clinicians and professionals to rehab specialists, but has proven difficult to quantify. ...
