Validity and Reliability of the Unsupervised, Isokinetic Three-Minute All-Out Cycling Test for Critical Power

Creator:: Bronson, Staci M.
Abstract:: PURPOSE: We tested the hypothesis that the unsupervised, isokinetic 3- minute all-out cycling test (3MT) would be a valid and reliable way to determine end power (EP) and work done above end power (WEP). Additionally, we hypothesized that EP would successfully demarcate between heavy and severe-intensity exercise and thus represent...

Identifying Threshold Values of Accelerometer-Determined Moderate-to-Vigorous Physical Activity that Correspond to Self-Reported Compliance to the 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans : National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003-2006

Creator:: Brier, Julie A.
Abstract:: Current public health guidelines for physical activity (PA) were primarily formulated using evidence collected from a series of prospective cohort epidemiological investigations that measured self-reported PA. In light of this observation, and the known discordance between self-reported and objectively-monitored PA, it remains common for researchers to assess compliance to current...

The Influence of Player Age on Club Soccer Coaches’ Perceptions of Injury Risk and Lower Extremity Injury Prevention Program Use

Creator:: Morgan, Elle Alexa
Abstract:: Background: The use of a lower extremity injury prevention program (IPP) by female athletes before the completion of puberty may mitigate movement changes that develop during puberty and contribute to greater injury risk. It is unknown whether player age influences coaches’ knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors surrounding IPPs. Methods: Fifty-four female...
