Hamstring extensibility is an important component of physical fitness and spinal health. In this context, extensibility is understood as the ability of muscle tissue to lengthen or stretch beyond the resting length. Short-hamstring syndrome is one of the main risk factors for athletic injuries, low back pain, etc. The aims of the current study were […]
The objective of this study was to study the validity and reliability of WIMU during 10m and 30m sprints, during team sports specific movements and the reliability during very high speeds (> 30 km/h). GPS systems are commonly used to analysis football performance during either trainings or matches. While many studies have investigated the validity […]
First study to test the reliability and validity of WIMU enclosed to a Smith’s machine bar in order to measure velocity in back squat. This study had two main goals. The first was to determine the reliability of the WIMU for mean velocity measurements during resistance exercises at 40% and 80% 1 repetition maximum (maximum […]
The purpose of this research was to perform a trunk strength assessment of protocols described in the literature using accelerometry, by means of CV and ApEn entropy calculations. In addition, to check differences in CV and ApEn variables depending on the type of exercise, as a secondary objective. Twenty-four male subjects who were part of […]
