  • Acute and delayed effects of an exhaustive bout of exercise on landing biomechanics in women and men

    Creator:
    Kipp, Kristof
    Abstract:
    Although female athletes are at greater risk of non-contact knee injuries than men, the factors that contribute to these injuries are not well understood. One important question is whether intense exercise influences the risk of knee injury, both acutely and over the following days. The purpose of this study was...

  • Investigation of the biomechanics of running and rapid change-of-direction tasks

    Creator:
    Golden, Grace M.
    Abstract:
    Rapid change-of-direction tasks have been associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and females are more likely to suffer this injury compared to males. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of running and three rapid change-of-direction tasks and determine whether sex differences exist across...
