The Effect of a Hip Strengthening Program on Mechanics during Running and Single Leg Squatting
(2011-07)
STUDY DESIGN: Block randomized controlled trial. OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether a strengthening and movement education program, targeting the hip abductors and hip external rotators, alters hip mechanics during running ...
Are mechanics different between male and female runners with patellofemoral pain?
(2012-11)
INTRODUCTION:
Patellofemoral pain (PFP) has often been attributed to abnormal hip and knee mechanics in females. To date, there have been few investigations of the hip and knee mechanics of males with PFP. The purpose of ...
Mirror gait retraining for the treatment of patellofemoral pain in female runners.
(2012-12)
BACKGROUND:
Abnormal hip mechanics are often implicated in female runners with patellofemoral pain. We sought to evaluate a simple gait retraining technique, using a full-length mirror, in female runners with patellofemoral ...
Kinematic and kinetic comparison of running in standard and minimalist shoes
(2013-07)
The purpose of this study was to determine if running in a minimalist shoe results in a reduction in ground reaction forces and alters kinematics over standard shoe running. The secondary purpose of this study was to ...
