Multiplanar lumbar, pelvis and kick leg sequencing during soccer instep kicking from different approach angles Open
Multiplanar kinematic and kinetic sequencing from different approach angles can highlight how soccer players perform fast and accurate kicks. This study therefore aimed to a) determine multiplanar torso, pelvis and kick leg sequencing duri…

An Instrumented Mouthguard for Real-Time Measurement of Head Kinematics under a Large Range of Sport Specific Accelerations Open
Background: Head impacts in sports can produce brain injuries. The accurate quantification of head kinematics through instrumented mouthguards (iMG) can help identify underlying brain motion during injurious impacts. The aim of the current…

Understanding the effects of ball orientation in Rugby Union place kicking: the preferences of international kickers and the kinematics of the foot-ball impact Open
Rugby Union place kicking is influential to match outcome. Previous research has analysed kicker motion prior to ball contact in detail, but ball orientation and the impact phase are typically ignored. This study aims to firstly identify t…

MEASUREMENT EFFICIENCY OF AN INSTRUMENTED MOUTHGUARD UNDER A LARGE RANGE OF HEAD ACCELERATIONS AND THE EFFECTS OF FILTERING Open
Instrumented mouthguards (iMG) measure head kinematics in sport, but their measurements have not been validated at high levels of accelerations observed in those sports like rugby. In addition, the effects of filter cut-off frequency on th…

The reliability and validity of the bar-mounted PUSH Band<sup>TM</sup> 2.0 during bench press with moderate and heavy loads Open
The aim of this study was to assess the reliability and validity of the bar-mounted PUSH BandTM 2.0 to determine peak and mean velocity during the bench press exercise with a moderate (60% one repetition maximum [1RM]) and heavy…

The Validity of the Push Band 2.0 during Vertical Jump Performance Open
The Push Band has the potential to provide a cheap and practical method of measuring velocity and power during countermovement vertical jumping (CMJ). However, very little is known about whether it conforms to laboratory-based gold standar…
