Fatigue-related variations in bilateral deficit and interlimb asymmetry in young gymnasts
Ozgor, N., Kose, M. G., Kin Isler, A.Published in 29th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science, 2-5 July 2024, Book of Abstracts (2024)“…INTRODUCTION: The impact of bilateral deficit (BLD) and interlimb asymmetry (IA) on athletic performance and sports injuries is mostly unknown. It is important to understand the fatigue-related changes in BLD and IA in sports such as gymnastics, where both unilateral and bilateral jumps are involved to minimize the decrement in performance that may occur as a result of fatigue and to prevent injuries. …”

Bringing biomechanics to ballet: a feasibility study using wearable technology during grand allegro
Swords, T., McClelland, J., Middleton, K., Tessarin, B., Bryce, S., Mayes, S., Rio, E.Published in Sports Biomechanics (2024)“…The largest impact accelerations occur during the sequence of large (single or double-leg) jumps (grand allegro) but are potentially the most challenging class component for utilising wearable technology, and feasibility is unknown. This pilot study utilised wearable technology during class to (1) explore feasibility and acceptability, (2) quantify impact accelerations during the entire sequence of jumps during grand allegro and (3) compare impact accelerations between limbs (preferred and non-preferred landing limb). …”

Myoelectric manifestations of fatigue of the finger flexor muscles and endurance capacity in experienced versus intermediate climbers during suspension tasks
Vieira, T. M., Cerone, G. L., Bruno, M., Bachero-Mena, B.Published in Journal of Sports Sciences (2024)“…Notwithstanding the documented greater endurance capacity of experienced climbers, the mechanisms explaining these training-induced adaptations remain unknown. We therefore investigate whether two non-competing strategies - muscle adaptation and alternate muscle recruitment - may explain the disparity in endurance capacity in participants with different climbing experience. …”

Cognitive vulnerability to mood deterioration in an exercise cessation paradigm
Evans, M., Rohan, K. J., Meyerhoff, J., Norton, R. J., Sibold, J. S.Published in Journal of Clinical Sport Psychology (2024)“…Mood deterioration in response to exercise cessation is well documented, but moderators of this effect remain unknown. This study tested the hypothesis that physically active individuals with higher levels of cognitive vulnerability (i.e., tendencies toward negative thought content and processes in response to stress or negative mood states) are at greater risk for increased anxiety and depressive symptoms when undergoing exercise cessation. …”

Effect of heat acclimatization, heat acclimation, and intermittent heat training on maximal oxygen uptake
Dunn, R. A., Fry, L. A., Sekiguchi, Y., Benjamin, C. L., Manning, C. N., Huggins, R. A., Stearns, R. L., Casa, D. J.Published in Sports Health: A Multidisciplinary Approach (2024)“…Upon heat exposure reduction, intermittent heat training (IHT) may alleviate HA/HAz adaptation decay; however, corresponding VO2max responses are unknown. Hypothesis: VO2max is maintained after HAz/HA; IHT mitigates decrements in aerobic power after HAz/HA. …”

Sex differences in ground reaction force profiles of ballet dancers during single- and double-leg landing tasks.
Arnwine, R. A., Powell, D. WPublished in Journal of Dance Medicine & Science (2020)“…It is well known that sex differences exist in landing biomechanics in athletes, and these differences are purported to underlie a prevalence of traumatic knee injuries in females compared to males. However, it remains unknown if these differences also apply to artistic athletes such as dancers. …”

Spinal and supra-spinal excitability during dynamic situations in sport - method development and pilot application in cross-country skiing
Lindinger, S., Karczewska-Lindinger, M., Piitulaine, H., Giangrande, A., Piirainen, J.Published in 28th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science, 4-7 July 2023, Paris, France (2023)“…The motor control can be divided to spinal and supra-spinal components, which`s contribution can be quantified using Hoffmann-reflex (H-reflex) and volitional wave (V-wave) methods, respectively, during both isometric (Aagaard et al. 2002) and dynamic conditions (Alkjaer et al. 2013). However, it is unknown how feasible these responses would be to study more challenging multi-joint dynamic tasks like cross-country skiing. …”

Energy constraint and compensation: Insights from endurance athletes
Dolan, E., Koehler, K., Areta, J., Longman, D. P., Pontzer, H.Published in Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology (2023)“…The Constrained Model of Total Energy Expenditure predicts that increased physical activity may not influence total energy expenditure, but instead, induces compensatory energetic savings in other processes. Much remains unknown, however, about concepts of energy expenditure, constraint and compensation in different populations, and it is unclear whether this model applies to endurance athletes, who expend very large amounts of energy during training and competition. …”
