Vertical ground reaction force variables derived from Loadsol® insoles during overground walking are valid and reliable Open
Force sensing insoles for measuring vertical ground reaction force (VGRF) have several advantages over laboratory-based force plates. Data can easily be collected in real-world environments and long duration trials with multiple steps are …

Whipping or tearing? The biomechanics of Achilles tendinopathy in rearfoot strike runners Open
Two biomechanical mechanisms for the development of Achilles tendinopathy in runners have been proposed: A whipping mechanism characterized by prolonged and excessive rearfoot eversion, and a tearing mechanism characterized by high eccentr…

Biomechanics associated with tibial stress fracture in runners: A systematic review and meta-analysis Open
Meta-analysis indicated that discrete ground reaction force variables were not statistically significantly different in runners with TSF compared to controls. In individual included studies, many biomechanical variables were not statistica…

Workload and Noncontact Musculoskeletal Injury in Collegiate Swimmers: A Prospective Cohort Study Open
Context Swimmers are known for experiencing high training loads and a high incidence of overuse injuries, but few researchers have investigated the relationship between the two at the collegiate level. Objective To determine the associatio…

Detection of foot contact in treadmill running with inertial and optical measurement systems Open
In running assessments, biomechanics of the stance phase are often measured to understand external loads applied to the body. Identifying time of initial foot contact can be challenging in runners with different strike patterns. Peak downw…

Walking velocity and step length adjustments affect knee joint contact forces in healthy weight and obese adults Open
Knee osteoarthritis is a major public health problem and adults with obesity are particularly at risk. One approach to alleviating this problem is to reduce the mechanical load at the joint during daily activity. Adjusting temporospatial p…

Intratester Reliability and Construct Validity of a Hip Abductor Eccentric Strength Test Open
Context : Side-lying hip abductor strength tests are commonly used to evaluate muscle strength. In a “break” test, the tester applies sufficient force to lower the limb to the table while the patient resists. The peak force is postulated t…

Physiological and Biomechanical Factors Contributing to the Hip Adduction Angle in Female Runners Open
Running is a popular form of exercise that is accompanied by many health benefits. However, running also comes with a risk of overuse injuries. Women have a higher risk for overuse injuries during running than men. A person's lower extremi…
