From secondary school to university: associations between sport participation and total and domain-specific sedentary behaviours in Spanish students
(Taylor and Francis, 2020-05-06)Effective ways to reduce sedentary behaviour in adolescents are needed to mitigate the risk of chronic disease and poor mental health. Organised sport participation is the most practiced physical activity during adolescence. ... -
The importance of duration and magnitude of force application to sprint performance during the initial acceleration, transition and maximal velocity phases
(Taylor and Francis, 2020-07-06)Successful sprinting depends on covering a specific distance in the shortest time possible. Although external forces are key to sprinting, less consideration is given to the duration of force application, which influences ... -
Movement competency and measures of isometric and dynamic strength and power in boys of different maturity status
(Wiley, 2020-07-15)An understanding of how movement competency, strength, and power interacts with natural growth and maturation is required in order to determine meaningful changes with developing athletes. Isometric and dynamic testing in ... -
A critical analysis of CIMSPA's transformative aspirations for UK Higher education sport and physical activity vocational education and training provision
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-07-03)This paper provides a critical analysis of the Chartered Institute for Management of Sport and Physical Activity's (CIMSPA) transformative aspirations for UK Higher Education (HE) based Sport and Physical Activity Vocational ... -

Acute reductions in hematocrit increase flow-mediated dilation independent ofresting nitric oxide bioavailability in humans
(Wiley, 2020-07-08)Hemoglobin (Hb) may impact the transduction of endothelium‐dependent and nitric oxide (NO) mediated vasodilator activity, given its contribution to shear stress stimuli and diverse biochemical reactions with NO. We ... -
Individual hop analysis and reactive strength ratios provide better discrimination of ACL reconstructed limb deficits than triple hop for distance scores in athletes returning to sport
(Elsevier, 2020-07-28)Surgical treatment and rehabilitation programs for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) remain a costly burden to health care services (23). Approximately two thirds of patients successfully return to sport ... -
The influence of biological maturity on dynamic force-time variables and vaulting performance in young female gymnasts
(Springer, 2020)Jumping and rebounding are important prerequisites that underpin the high impact loading gymnastics skills (e.g. acrobatic series, tumbling etc.) (Suchomel et al. 2016). Further, three of the four artistic disciplines that ... -
The influence of biological maturity and competitive level on isometric force-time curve variables and vaulting performance in young female gymnasts
(Lippincott, Williams and Wilkins, 2020-06-19)This cross-sectional study investigated isometric force-time curve variables and vaulting performance in young female gymnasts of varying maturity and competitive levels. One hundred twenty gymnasts aged 5–14 years were ... -
The influence of barosensory vessel mechanics on the vascular sympathetic baroreflex: Insights into ageing and blood pressure homeostasis
(American Physiological Society, 2020-07-10)Changes in the arterial baroreflex arc contribute to elevated sympathetic outflow and altered reflex control of blood pressure with human ageing. Utilizing ultrasound and sympathetic microneurography (muscle sympathetic ... -
A systematic review of sport-based life skills programs for young people: The quality of design 2 and evaluation methods
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-07-07)Over the past two decades, researchers have reported positive life skills outcomes for young people participating in sport-based life-skills programs. However, to date, there has been a lack of consideration in the literature ... -
A Multi-Study Exploration of Factors that Optimise Hardiness in Sport Coaches and the Role of Reflective Practice in Facilitating Hardy Attitudes
(Frontiers Media, 2020)Hardiness has been identified as a key personal characteristic that may moderate the ill-effects of stress on health and performance. However, little is known about how hardiness might be developed, particularly in sport ... -
Risk Factors for Upper Limb Injury in Tennis Players: A Systematic Review
(MDPI, 2020-04-16)Studies in tennis injuries have successfully identified the incident rate, the location, and the type of the injury. The majority of the studies have multiple perspectives (epidemiology, biomechanics, performance), however ... -
Improved reporting of overuse injuries and health problems in sport: an update of the Oslo Sport Trauma Research Center questionnaires
(BMJ Publishing Group, 2020-02-14)In 2013, the Oslo Sports Trauma Research Center Overuse Injury Questionnaire (OSTRC-O) was developed to record the magnitude, symptoms and consequences of overuse injuries in sport. Shortly afterwards, a modified version ... -
Motivations and barriers to engagement with a technology-enabled community wide physical activity intervention
(Public Library of Science, 2020-06-26)Previous physical activity interventions have failed to create population change and an alternative approach is needed to support a World Health Organization target of a 15% reduction in global levels of inactivity by 2030. ... -
Modulation of spinal excitability following neuromuscular electrical stimulation superimposed to voluntary contraction
(Springer, 2020-07-17)Purpose. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) superimposed on voluntary muscle contraction has been recently shown as an innovative training modality within sport and rehabilitation, but its effects on the neuromuscular ... -
Dehydration reduces stroke volume and cardiac output during exercise because of impaired cardiac filling and venous return, not left ventricular function
(Wiley, 2020-06-15)Dehydration accrued during intense prolonged whole‐body exercise in the heat compromises peripheral blood flow and cardiac output (Q). A markedly reduced stroke volume (SV) is a key feature of the dehydration‐induced ... -
The influence of habitual endurance exercise on carotid artery strain and strain-rate in young and middle-aged men
(Wiley, 2020-06-24)Central arterial stiffness is an independent predictor of cardiovascular risk that can be modified by exercise training. However, conventional local measures of carotid artery stiffness display conflicting responses to ... -
“I felt like I was missing out on something”: An evaluation of using remote technology in the classroom
(Springer, 2020-05-08)As technology develops in Higher Education (HE), distance learning has adopted many different guises and supports many different needs (Keane 2013). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of Double Robotics on ... -
