The objective of this systematic review is to identify motion analysis parameters measured during challenging walking tasks which can predict fall risk in the older population. Numerous studies have attempted to predict fall risk from the motion analysis of standing balance or steady walking. However, most falls do not occur during steady gait but...

We performed a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to assess the effects of strength training (ST) as compared to alternative multimodal or unimodal exercise programs on the number of falls in older adults (≥60 years). Ten databases were con-sulted (CINAHL, Cochrane Library, EBSCO, EMBASE, PEDro, PubMed, Scie...
This study investigated the muscle activity during the preparatory (anticipatory postural adjustment, APA), execution (online postural adjustments, OPA), and compensatory (compensatory postural adjustment, CPA) phases during standing with eyes opened or closed on an elevated platform. Eight healthy young women stood in the upright position, with ey...
Perception of external loads may be a central topic to understand adjustments to the mechanical demands during movement. Nevertheless, the association between the perceived and the real load received is still controversial. This study aimed to correlate vertical ground reaction force (vGRF) to the perception of impact in different regimens of stimu...
Introduction:
There is a high incidence of Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries in soccer and 37% of this happens during landing after a jumping event. The measure of valgus knee moment during landing of a Drop Jump (DJ) has been considered a gold standard test to predict the risk of ACL injury in young athletes. Furthermore, researchers have...
Conquistar as primeiras posições em competições de futebol é apenas para alguns times. Assim, um melhor entendimento do jogo se torna crucial mediante essa competitividade. O objetivo do presente estudo foi determinar variáveis de scout que melhor descrevem as características técnicas e táticas dos times que participaram de Liga dos Campeões na tem...

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the time between measures on ground reaction force running variability; 15 healthy men (age = 23.8 ± 3.7 years; weight = 72.8 ± 7.7 kg; height 174.3 ± 8.4 cm) performed two trials of running 45 minutes at 9 km/hr at intervals of seven days. The ground reaction forces were recorded every 5 minutes...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of exercise order on electromyographic activity in different muscle groups among youth men with experience in strength training. Three sets of 8 RM were performed of each exercise in two sequences order: (a) sequence A: bench press, chest fly, shoulder press, shoulder abduction, close grip be...
Running has been a very important expression of movement. The expansion of your practice has been followed by a seeking for new strategies to improve mechanical load control and performance. Thus, the belief that barefoot running could be an effective strategy to attend these objectives has been reinforcing (Divert et al., 2005, Lieberman et al. 20...
