Biomechanical differences in landing techniques in focused, static distraction, and moving distraction
Sampson, Dylan (East Carolina University, 2021-04-23)During a jump landing task an athlete is exposed to multiple injury risks. These risks are greater when an athlete is not properly trained and has poor technique. Jump training protocols have been developed to improve ... -
BIOMECHANICAL DIFFERENCES IN LIFTERS WITH PRE-EXISTING INJURIES DURING THE SNATCH EXERCISE
DeVitto, Evan C. (East Carolina University, 2022-05-04)Introduction: High intensity workouts are growing rapidly throughout the fitness industry. CrossFit and free weight workouts are becoming a popular standard throughout the exercise community. One of these exercises is the ... -
Enhanced Sensorimotor Kinematics of the Baseball Swing in Elite Batters During a Known Pitch Type
Silberg, Ryan (East Carolina University, 2019-12-10)The interceptive task of hitting a baseball requires temporal and spatial precision through effective pitch tracking strategies and swing mechanics to achieve success. Overall, these factors dictate the quality of the ... -

OPTIMIZATION OF ACL INJURY PREVENTION: A STUDY OF MOTIVATION AND SELF-EFFICACY
Warren, Mary (East Carolina University, 2021-04-23)Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is one of the most prevalent musculoskeletal injuries in sport and physical activity. Approximately 175,000 ACL injuries are reported each year in the United States, imposing a ... -
Teager-Kaiser Operator improves the accuracy of EMG onset detection independent of signal-to-noise ratio
Solnik, Stanislaw; DeVita, Paul, 1955-; Rider, Patrick; Long, Benjamin L.; Hortobágyi, Tibor (East Carolina University, 2008)A temporal analysis of electromyographic (EMG) activity has widely been used for non-invasive study of muscle activation patterns. Such an analysis requires robust methods to accurately detect EMG onset. We examined whether ... -
