Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the validity of the HandyGym portable flywheel device with an integrated rotary encoder in measuring force and power during iso-inertial exercises compared to a traditional reference system. Methods: In total, 10 trained volunteers (3 women, 7 men; age 25.2 ± 3.8 years) performed half-squats with five diff...

Background. Jumping and landing tests are frequently used as a tool to assess muscle function. However, they are performed in a controlled and predictable environment. The physical tests commonly used as part of the criteria for return to sport after injury are often performed with little or no cognitive load and low coordinative demand compared to...

The aim of this study was to investigate the reliability and validity of an affordable wireless force sensor in measuring mean and peak forces during resistance training.A Suiff Pro wireless force sensor (Suiff, Spain) and a MuscleLab force platform (Ergotest, Norway) were used concurrently to assess tensile load and the ground reaction force resul...

Introduction: There are several tests that provide information about physical fitness and functionality in older adults. The aims of this study were: (i) to analyze the differences between sex and age in functional, strength and cardiorespiratory tests; and (ii) to study the correlations between functional, strength and cardiorespiratory tests acco...

The aim of the present study was to analyse differences in acceleration and movement variability caused by adding whole-body vibration (WBV) and an implement (stick) while performing a slide-board (SB) skating exercise. A total of 10 professional ice-hockey players (age 20.4 ± 2.07 years) participated in the study. Participants performed 30 s of la...

The physiological, kinematic, and performance benefits of slide board (SB) training are well established. However, there is limited research investigating the potential effects offered by combining SB training with whole-body vibration (WBV). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of WBV on movement variability (MV) and physiological parameters du...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the validity of a low-cost friction encoder against a criterion measure (strain gauge combined with a linear encoder) for assessing velocity, force and power in flywheel exercise devices. Ten young and physically active volunteers performed two sets of 14 maximal squats on a flywheel inertial device (YoY...

The purpose of this study was to determine and compare thigh muscle volumes (MVs), and sprint mechanical properties and performance between male and female national-level sprinters. We also studied possible relationships between thigh MVs and sprint performance. Nine male and eight female national-level sprinters participated in the study. T1-weigh...
Article
This study aimed to analyse changes in sprint performance, muscle volumes (MVs) and sprint mechanical parameters (SMPs) in national-level sprinters performing a 5-month indoor sprint-based training macrocycle (SBTM). Twelve well-trained sprinters were tested on three different occasions throughout the SBTM. Testing procedures included: sprint perfo...

Purpose: To assess early changes in muscle function and hypertrophy, measured as increases in muscle cross-sectional areas (CSAs) and total volume, over a 4 weeks inertial resistance training (RT) program. Methods: Ten young RT-naive volunteers (age 23.4 ± 4.1 years) underwent 10 training sessions (2–3 per week) consisting of five sets of 10 flywhe...

Introduction Performance in sprint events seems directly related to the level of force and the rate which its force is generated. Sprinters have little time to apply force to the ground; in this sense, the force should be applied as fast as possible; hence, the force–velocity relationship (power) is a determining factor for success in sprint runnin...

Objectives It is well established that the reduction in force generating capacity (FGC) is one of the best indicators of exercise induced muscle damage (EIMD). The aim of this study was to screen quadriceps muscle response to an unaccustomed single bout of Eccentric-Concentric (E-C) exercise. Methods Nine physically active women (age 26.8±2.2years)...
Conference Paper
Introduction It is generally assumed that concentric muscle actions cannot lead to severe exercise induced muscle damage (EIMD). A higher mechanical strain produced in eccentric actions is one of the main causes of sarcomeric disruptions (Fridén et al., 2001). However, other indirect mechanisms of EIMD are the accumulation of metabolic products and...
Conference Paper
Introduction Maximal Voluntary isometric Contraction force (MVC) is considered as one of the best tools for quantifying muscle damage (Raastad et al. 2010). Other performance related to muscle function, such as jump performance, has been reported to be affected by Exercise Induced Muscle Damage (EIMD). The aim of this study was to assess which para...

Introducion Mountain trail races (MTR), or >42km Mountain Ultramarathons (MUM); are competitive runs that involve a great cumulative elevation gain (Easthope et al., 2011). There is general agreement that MTR leads muscle damage, due to strenuous competitive conditions and the eccentric contractions during the downhill phases (Millet et al., 2012)....
