New research by Wukelic, Sean Machak, and colleagues shows trained baseball players throw with a more consistent and efficient proximal joint/segment timing than the untrained participants, specifically at the trunk and shoulder. ⚾️ Read more here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

New research introduces a novel ultrasound-guided fine-wire EMG protocol alongside normative data from the extensor hallucis brevis during walking, suggesting a synergistic role to anterior compartment musculature at contact. Read more here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

The research shows scapular kinematics may not be affected by changes in posture in a clinically significant way. The results of this study could be used as a baseline comparison in a healthy population. Read more here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

This new study suggests that TA-PL coactivation plays a crucial role in influencing postural stability, highlighting its potential importance in understanding and improving balance control mechanisms. Read more here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

New research demonstrates a theoretical model of the kinematic and kinetic factors related to achieving a higher release velocity in the rotational shot put technique. Read it here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20… Kei MAEDA Jun Mizushima

New research by Geoff Burns Nicholas Tam @roblamberts @nctam_za demonstrates that runners maintain gross mechanical behaviour when fatigued with small compensatory changes in spatiotemporal and traditional spring-mass characteristics. Read more here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

🚨The December Issue of the Journal of Applied Biomechanics is now available to View! Check it out here: journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/…

New research suggests that changing scapular orientation significantly impacts measures of rotator cuff impingement and increasing scapular upward rotation may increase impingement-free range of motion. Read more here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

New research demonstrates that older adults had less foot-ankle mechanical transmission than younger adults from 0° to 30° metatarsal phalangeal extension. However, foot-ankle transmission was not correlated with walking outcomes. Read more here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

New research by Valentin Romero Adrián Castaño Pedro Jiménez-Reyes demonstrates reduced trunk flexion, kick-back mechanism and overstriding pattern following repeated-sprint training, suggesting a potential decrease in theoretical hamstring strain. Read more here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

A new study has compared IMU calibration methods against a standard reference system, provided guidelines and recommendations on which calibration method is most effective in estimating humerothoracic joint angles. Check it out here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

Hip internal rotation range and foot progression angle are crucial biomechanical factors that may help prevent Jones fractures in athletes during crossover cutting manoeuvres and targeted interventions may reduce injury risk. 菊地 雄大 doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…

New research demonstrates a verbal instruction cue is an effective way to increase foot progression angle during a drop landing and alter lower extremity biomechanics in ways that may reduce risk of ACL injury. UTK Biomechanics Read more here: doi.org/10.1123/jab.20…
