1. Neuromuscular function and systemic immune response following a simulated soccer match: potential predictors of injury risk and recovery effect of post-match hot and cold water immersion
University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaperAbstract : Objective: The injury incidence in youth soccer remains high, and the incidence pattern suggests an increased susceptibility to injury during fatigue. However, the support for the recovery modalities used in professional soccer, such as cold/hot water immersion (CWI/HWI), is either conflicting or lacking. READ MORE

2. EMG-aktivering av rotatorcuffen vid olika muskelstärkande aktiviteter - En biomekanisk studie.
University essay from Lunds universitet/Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabiliteringAbstract : Introduction Both M. Supraspinatus and M. Infraspinatus of the rotator cuff play a role in stabilizing the shoulder during movement. When rehabilitating shoulders after injury a wide range of tools are used to strengthen the shoulder, often including a pulley system or TheraBand. READ MORE

3. Post-Activation Performance Enhancement in Sledge Ankle Hops after a 6-seconds maximal Isometric Plantar Flexion
University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsaAbstract : Aim The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a 6-second maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) of the plantar-flexors on subsequent ankle hops performed only by plantar flexing at the ankle. Methods 10 physically active university students were recruited to volunteer in this study. READ MORE

4. Effect of exercise therapy on eversion/inversion angle in female runners: : A pilot study.
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för idrottsvetenskap (ID)Abstract : Background: Running has many health benefits and has therefore become a sport with an expanded popularity worldwide. With it comes an increased incidence of overuse injuries, and there is a constant debate whether the shoes a runner uses should be as supportive as possible or minimalistic in order to facilitate a more natural running pattern.

5. Post-activation Potentiation : Effects on performance, tensile, and contractile properties of the plantar flexor muscles
University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för idrotts- och hälsovetenskapAbstract : Aim The present thesis aimsto provide scientific based evidence that might expand the limited information available regarding the post-activation potentiation (PAP) effects on the rate of torque development (RTD) and muscle activity during repeated isokinetic concentric maximal voluntary contractions(MVC). Additionally, we aim to provide new insights related to the possible effects that such repeated maximal contractions might have on the muscle tendon unit (MTU) stiffness. READ MORE
