Comparison Of Sprint Stride Kinematics Between Three Different Carbon Spikes – A Case Study, Roland Van Den Tillaar
ISBS Proceedings Archive
The aim of this study was to compare the effect of three different carbon spikes that have different carbon plate and foam placement upon stride-by-stride kinematics during short and long sprints. An international leveled 400m (52.60 s) master athlete performed several 50 and 200m sprints, while wearing three different carbon spikes types in which stride kinematics and angular foot velocity were measured. The main findings were that in the 50m sprints with Puma spikes peak velocity and step frequency were lower with longer contact times than with the other spikes and during the 200m Saucony had a shorter average step …

Distal Joint Kinetics Are Associated With Shot Put Performance, Shogo Hashimoto, Tempei Tominaga, Keigo Ohyama Byun, Natsuki Sado
ISBS Proceedings Archive
Shot put motion exhibits upper-limb “push type proximal-to-distal sequence”, which is a common motor task with the lower limb. In the lower limb, proximal muscle function is associated with motor performance. Here we show the strong correlation of the wrist torque and power with the flight distance in the motion of 13 male shot putters. For the shoulder, only the peak torque correlated with the flight distance, whereas for the elbow, flexion torque was exerted, and both torque and power did not correlate with the flight distance. We suggest that it is important for shot putters to strengthen both the …

Overweight And Underweight Implements’ Impact On Critical Factors Of Rotational Shot-Putting Technique, Leah N. Klein, James Becker, Justin Whitten, Megan Peach
ISBS Proceedings Archive
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impacts of heavy and light implements on the kinematics of the rotational shot put technique. Ten collegiate shot putters completed three rotational shot put attempts using competition, overweight and underweight implements. Whole body kinematics were recorded on each throw to evaluate key aspects of shot putting technique including pelvis-torso separation, rear leg hip flexion, rear leg knee flexion, and peak pelvis angular velocity during specific phases of the throw. Results of this study highlight that when using an overweight implement, athletes have significantly less hip flexion compared to the competition-weighted implement …

Assessing The Relationship Between Contralateral Limb Synergy And Rock-Climbing Efficiency, Jeromy Miramontes, Steven Leigh, Robert Powell, Suzanne Konz
ISBS Proceedings Archive
The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the continuous relative phase (CRP) of a rock-climbing move. Rock climbers (19) of varying years of experience, age, and gender attempted a competition-style bouldering problem as many times as possible in a given time frame. CRP angles were calculated for the left hip to right shoulder and left knee to right elbow and Geometric Entropy (GE) was calculated in 2 dimensions. CRP of shoulder to hip and elbow to knee joint angles showed no association with time to complete (TtC) and GE. There was a positive trend as blood …
“Super-Shoes” In Distance Running: Is There A Possible Downside In Trained Women?, Max R. Paquette, Eduardo Martinez
“Super-Shoes” In Distance Running: Is There A Possible Downside In Trained Women?, Max R. Paquette, Eduardo Martinez
ISBS Proceedings Archive
Although “super-shoes” provide a metabolic advantage, anecdotal suggest that consistent wear may contribute to development of knee and hip overuse injuries. The purpose of this study was to compare these injury-related running biomechanics variables between “super-shoes” and traditional training shoes in female distance runners. 18 competitive female runners ran for 5min on a treadmill at 3.6 m/s in “super-shoes” (SUPER) and control shoes (CON) while 3D kinematic and ground reaction force data were collected. Peak knee abduction moment and peak hip internal rotation and abduction moment were larger in SUPER compared to CON but no other biomechanical variables were different …
Impact Of Forefoot Cushioning Stiffness On Block Start Performance In Sprinting, Yannick Denis, Hannah Knoke, Mario Kanjuh, Luca Braun, Markus Hipper, Bastian Anedda, Janina Helwig, Steffen Willwacher
Impact Of Forefoot Cushioning Stiffness On Block Start Performance In Sprinting, Yannick Denis, Hannah Knoke, Mario Kanjuh, Luca Braun, Markus Hipper, Bastian Anedda, Janina Helwig, Steffen Willwacher
ISBS Proceedings Archive
This study aimed to identify the impact of different forefoot cushioning properties in “advanced spiked footwear” on sprinting performance during the block start. Kinetic parameters were collected for twenty-three competitive sprinters during a block sprint start in two advanced spike conditions with only a difference in forefoot cushioning stiffness. An instrumented start block was used to measure the ground reaction forces applied in the front and rear leg. The stiffer shoe condition showed significantly better performance for most parameters, suggesting a softer midsole in forefoot cushioning is not related to better block start performance. This study has demonstrated that differences …

Visualizing Segmental Contributions To Whole-Body Angular Momentum In The Rotational Shot Put And Discus Throw, Kristof Kipp, Nayun Ahn
ISBS Proceedings Archive
The purpose of this study was to develop a method to visualize the contributions of the free limbs to whole-body angular momentum (L) during the rotational shot put and discus throw. Digital video of track and field throwers were recorded as they performed several shot put and discus throw attempts. Videos were processed with markerless motion capture technology, which was used to generate segment center-of-mass (COM) positions. Whole-body L in the global coordinate system was calculated as the sum of transfer terms of the legs, arms, and trunk segments. To visualize transverse plane L generated by the legs …

This study investigates the relationship between kinematic sequence variables and upper extremity joint work in basketball free-throw shooting. Thirty-four participants performed free-throw shots, analyzed using a 3D markerless motion capture system (ENABLE). The study focused on the timing of peak segmental angular velocities and their relation to joint work in the shooting shoulder and elbow. Significant correlations were found between the timing of peak angular velocities and upper extremity joint work. The findings suggest that proficient basketball shooters demonstrate a more efficient kinematic sequence, characterized by longer duration of time between knee, pelvis, and elbow peak angular velocities and reduced …
Markerless Motion Capture And Optimal Control To Inform Pitching Mechanics And Reduce Injury Risk, Tylan Templin, Sakiko Oyama, Travis Eliason, Daniel Nicolella
Markerless Motion Capture And Optimal Control To Inform Pitching Mechanics And Reduce Injury Risk, Tylan Templin, Sakiko Oyama, Travis Eliason, Daniel Nicolella
ISBS Proceedings Archive
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the utility of predictive musculoskeletal simulations in baseball pitching. An optimal control analysis was developed that aimed to minimize injury risk while maintaining pitching performance. The optimization converged on a solution that reduced peak shoulder internal rotation by 27.1% while maintaining peak hand velocity within 1.7%. The optimized simulation suggested that 1) a lower arm slot 2) greater knee extension in the stride leg would lead to reduced injury risk without degrading performance. This study's findings demonstrate the potential of biomechanical analyses in enhancing performance and reducing injury risks in baseball pitchers.

Analysis Of Kinematics During Sprint Running And Different Types Of Jumps, Bjørn Johansen, Roland Van Den Tillaar
ISBS Proceedings Archive
This study aimed to compare sprint running and various horizontal jumps in terms of speed and step kinematics, focusing on speed versus distance and their relationship with maximal running speed. Twelve female sprinters performed sprints, single-leg jumps for distance and speed, and bounding for distance and speed. The findings showed significant differences in kinematics between sprinting and jumping. Positive correlations were found between sprint speed and single-leg jump speed and distance, step length in all jumps, and contact and flight time in some. No significant correlation was found between sprint speed and step frequency in the jumps. Bounding for speed …

The Impact Of Ground Reaction Force Variables On Bend Sprint Running Performance, Jonathan White, Joseph Moore, Hans Von Lieres Und Wilkau, Gareth Irwin, Cassie Wilson, Timothy Exell
ISBS Proceedings Archive
This study aimed to investigate force production and highlight kinetic variables that relate to bend sprinting performance. Eight competitive sprinters undertook three 60 m sprints around a 36.5 m bend radius. Paired t-tests were run using statistical parametric mapping to compare the left and right stance phases. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated to assess the relationships between step velocity (SV) and kinetic variables. Significantly greater vertical and inward force was produced during early right stance compared to left. Left inward force was significantly greater than left during mid and late stance. Only braking durations were significantly negatively correlated to SV. …

Associations Between Strength And Power With Throwing Performance In High Level Male And Female Javelin Throwers, Miika Köykkä, Johanna K. Ihalainen, Anssi Saari, Benjamin Waller, Neil J. Cronin
ISBS Proceedings Archive
This study investigated the associations between strength and power measures and estimated javelin throwing performance. Thirteen male (personal best: 77.0 ± 5.7 m) and thirteen female (55.8 ± 5.8 m) javelin throwers underwent various lower and upper body power and strength tests, along with a javelin throwing test. Associations with throwing performance were observed for lower body power measures in males and upper and lower body maximal strength in females, suggesting sex-specific differences in important physical characteristics for throwing.
Gait And Foul Risk Differences Between Treadmill And Overground Racewalking, Qipeng Song, Xiaoxue Zhu, Peixin Shen
Gait And Foul Risk Differences Between Treadmill And Overground Racewalking, Qipeng Song, Xiaoxue Zhu, Peixin Shen
ISBS Proceedings Archive
This study compared treadmill and overground racewalking kinematics among 22 elite athletes at their personal best (PB) and 85% PB speeds, revealing significant differences. Ankle dorsiflexion angle decreased at heel strike, while hip flexion angle increased, alongside greater hip angle at toe-off. Comparing PB to 85% PB, contact time and hip flexion angle at heel strike decreased, along with decreased ankle plantarflexion at toe-off, but flight time and step length at heel strike increased. This suggests treadmill racewalking, particularly at PB speeds, exhibits unique gait features, yet without significant differences in flight time and knee angle between conditions, implying no …

The measurement of throwing pole forces in seated shot put has not been reported previously in the research literature, forming a considerable gap in the understanding of seated throwing. In this research, two methods for pole force measurement are presented: a deflection-based and a direct load-sensing method. From the comparison of each method, the measurement of pole forces without an instrumented pole is found to be feasible (RMSE

Hip Moment Increases While Knee And Ankle Moments Remain Constant During Squats With Increasing Loads In Elite Powerlifters, Alexander Pürzel, Paul Kaufmann, Willi Koller, David Deimel, Arnold Baca, Hans Kainz
ISBS Proceedings Archive
This study aimed to investigate compensation strategies among elite powerlifters under high-load conditions. 31 top-ranked powerlifters from the Austrian team executed competition-style squats at 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, and 90% of their estimated 1-repetition-maximum (Fmax). Employing musculoskeletal modelling, we conducted a biomechanical analysis (i.e. joints moments calculated via inverse dynamics) to understand the alterations in squatting mechanics across various loads. Our findings revealed a consistent relative load shift from the knee to the hip joint with increasing intensity. The knee and ankle joint moments remained constant from 70% to 90% Fmax, underscoring the dominant role of …

Sexual Violence In Intercollegiate Athletics: A Historical Perspective Of Male Athletic Entitlement, Lorin Mordecai
Sexual Violence In Intercollegiate Athletics: A Historical Perspective Of Male Athletic Entitlement, Lorin Mordecai
Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics
Sexual violence within intercollegiate athletics is an understudied area of research in social work. Feminist theorists suggest that sexual violence reinforces male dominance as a result of living in a patriarchal society. Male college athletes participating in commercialized sports develop a sense of entitlement due to public admiration for their heroic athleticism. The college sports culture at large Division I universities sets the stage for sexual aggression and exploitation of women. This article seeks to identify themes of male athletic entitlement that perpetuates violence against women through a feminist perspective. Using a historical qualitative analysis, articles from major newspapers were …
