The Effects Of Fatigue On Biomechanics Of Soccer Shooting, Hyunwook Lee Jan 2018

The Effects Of Fatigue On Biomechanics Of Soccer Shooting, Hyunwook Lee

Master’s Theses and Projects

Soccer is reputedly the most popular sport in the world with over 40 million registered players. Because soccer is a sport that is played mainly with the use of lower extremity, it is important to know about the fatigue in lower extremity and how muscle fatigue affects to the performance such as kicking, shooting, and passing. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of fatigue on the kinematic changes in the lower extremity in soccer shooting. Six competitive collegiate male soccer players (n = 6) participated in this study (height: 1.76 ± 0.06 m; weight: 71.38 ± …


The Effects Of Fatigue On Biomechanics Of Heading Performance In Soccer, Seunguk Han Jan 2018

The Effects Of Fatigue On Biomechanics Of Heading Performance In Soccer, Seunguk Han

Master’s Theses and Projects

Soccer is one of the high intermittent sports, in which the athletes perform various activities of different intensities over a prolonged period. One of the most important and potentially dangerous skills in soccer is heading because it can potentially cause concussion if it is not executed correctly. Even though coaches and practitioners recognize that heading the ball is one of the factors to cause concussion, there are few studies that have examined the kinematics of head and neck motion while performing heading skill. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of short period fatigue on the …
