Biomechanics: 40 Years On

Joseph Hamill, Kathleen M. Knutzen, and Timothy R. Derrick

runners with certain types of injuries ( Heiderscheit et al., 2002 ). A particular emphasis in these early studies was on pronation (calcaneal eversion) as a cause of many lower extremity injuries, including tibialis posterior tendinitis, Achilles tendinitis, patellofemoral disorder, iliotibial band

Effect of Core Muscle Training on Balance and Agility in Athletes: A Systematic Review

Saidan Shetty, Y.V. Raghava Neelapala, and Prateek Srivastava

the key stabilizers of the lumbopelvic region and the spine. Erector spinae, rectus abdominis, and external obliques control the trunk position in relation to the base of support. Transversus abdominis activation occurs initially during any lower extremity movements ( Cresswell & Thorstensson, 1994

dynamical systems approach to lower extremity running injuries ( Hamill et al., 1999 ; Vereijken et al., 1992 ). In Emmerik’s highly cited skill acquisition paper, he investigated Bernstein’s theory that early in the learning process of a movement skill, degrees of freedom are “frozen” and gradually
