The characteristics of lower extremity muscle activity and static balance of Chinese elite trampoline athletes during net contact phase
Liu, K., Zhu, Z., Yang, T., Yin, J.Published in Frontiers in Physiology (2025)“…Lower extremity muscle strength and balance control are crucial components in high-level trampolining. However, current research on these aspects remains limited. This study aimed to explore the activity patterns of lower limb muscle groups and the balance characteristics of elite trampoline athletes in China, with a focus on comparing male and female athletes. …”

Relative age effect? No "flipping" way: exploring the relative age effect in elite, female gymnastics
Langham-Walsh, E., Gottwald, V., Hardy, J.Published in 2019 SCAPPS Conference. Vancouver, BC, Canada, October 17 -19, 2019 (2019)“…In this instance, we might expect a more atypical RAE and perhaps, bias towards relatively younger athletes within the system. The present research examined the presence of a RAE within a sample of elite, female gymnasts. …”

Fat-free mass index in a diverse sample of female collegiate athletes
Harty, P. S., Zabriskie, H. A., Stecker, R. A., Currier, B. S., Moon, J. M., Jagim, A. R., Kerksick, C. M.Published in International Journal of Exercise Science Conference Proceedings (2019)“…Fat-free mass index (FFMI) is a height-adjusted metric of fat-free mass that has been suggested to have a variety of applications in the classification of athletic populations, including the assessment of athletic potential and capacity for further fat-free mass accretion. Previous researchers have identified FFMI upper limits of 28.1 kg/m2 in male football players and 25 kg/m2 in resistance-trained males. …”

Musculoskeletal demands of progressions for the longswing on high bar
Irwin, G., Kerwin, D. G.Published in Sports Biomechanics (2007)“…This study provides a useful means for ranking progressions based on their kinetic similarity to the chalked bar longswing and builds on earlier research in identifying that progressions can be classified into those similar in physical demand (kinetics) and those similar in geometry (kinematics).…”
