The Effect Of Arm Swing On Countermovement Vertical Jump Performance, Arash Mohammadzadeh Gonabadi Mar 2019

The Effect Of Arm Swing On Countermovement Vertical Jump Performance, Arash Mohammadzadeh Gonabadi

UNO Student Research and Creative Activity Fair

Vertical jumping is one of the popular ways to evaluate ankle-knee efficiency in athletic population. Arm swing can play a crucial role in enhancing vertical jump performance. This study aimed to address the differences in kinetic and kinematic parameters during countermovement jump motion with arm swing (AS) and no arm swing (NAS). We used OpenSim to examine the efficacy of AS in reducing the impulse applied to the body and changes in range of lower limb joint angles at landing instant. We calculated the maximum vertical peak of the ground reaction force and impulse generated at landing in two different …


Flow-Induced Dilation Of Skeletal Muscle Feed Arteries: Relevance To Exercise Hyperemia, Brittni N. Moore, Jeffrey J. Jasperse Dr. Mar 2015

Flow-Induced Dilation Of Skeletal Muscle Feed Arteries: Relevance To Exercise Hyperemia, Brittni N. Moore, Jeffrey J. Jasperse Dr.

Seaver College Research And Scholarly Achievement Symposium

During exercise, an increase in blood flow to working skeletal muscle is necessary in order to sustain activity for longer than a few seconds. This is accomplished by the dilation of arteries and arterioles feeding the muscle. Arterioles, located within contracting muscle, are exposed to dilatory metabolites released by the muscle; however, the mechanism by which feed arteries dilate is still unknown, since they are located external to the muscle. The purpose of this study was to determine if flow-induced dilation (resulting from shear stress on endothelial cells) contributes to exercise hyperemia in rat extensor digitorum longus and gastrocnemius muscle …
