Muscle–Tendon Behavior and Kinetics in Gastrocnemius Medialis During Forefoot and Rearfoot Strike Running

Tomonari Takeshita, Hiroaki Noro, Keiichiro Hata, Taira Yoshida, Tetsuo Fukunaga, and Toshio Yanagiya

and RFS, there is little information regarding muscle–tendon kinetics with consideration to the foot strike pattern while running. Based on computer simulations, only Yong et al 17 have reported higher negative work in the GM fascicle while FFS running compared with RFS running. They also revealed

Response of Knee Joint Biomechanics to Landing Under Internal and External Focus of Attention in Female Volleyball Players

Lukáš Slovák, David Zahradník, William M. Land, Javad Sarvestan, Joseph Hamill, and Reza Abdollahipour

ACL loading. Consequently, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of attentional focus instructions on the point-by-point changes in the kinematics (i.e., knee angles and angular velocities) and kinetics (i.e., force, moments, and knee energy absorption) of drop jump landings. In

For Flux Sake: Isotopic Tracer Methods of Monitoring Human Carbohydrate Metabolism During Exercise

Javier T. Gonzalez and Andy J. King

model of blood glucose kinetics is deuterium-labeled glucose (e.g., [6,6 2 H 2 ]-glucose), whereas for incorporation models [U 13 C]-glucose is commonly the tracer employed (see later). Circulating glucose concentrations are maintained within a relatively tight range, which is a remarkable feat of

High School Sport Stakeholders’ Perspectives on Coaches’ Ability to Facilitate Positive Youth Development

Martin Camiré, Tanya Forneris, and Pierre Trudel

Coaching for positive youth development (PYD) in the context of high school sport is a complex process given that many factors influence this environment. The purpose of this study was to explore the ability of high school coaches to facilitate PYD from the perspective of administrators, coaches, and athletes. Although stakeholders in general perceive coaches as having the ability to facilitate PYD, scores for coaches were higher than athletes and administrators and scores for athletes were higher than administrators. Furthermore, coaches who participated in coach education perceived themselves as having a greater ability to facilitate PYD compared to coaches with no coach education.
