  1. 1. Towards a feedback system for upper body bodyweight exercises using multiple inertial measurement units : A user-centred approach

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Panagiota Papadopoulou; [2023]
    Keywords : IMU sensors; bodyweight training; machine learning; real-time feedback; push-ups; tricep dips; plank;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the feasibility of developing an affordable and easy-to-use feed- back system that leverages information from multiple inertial measurement units (IMUs) to identify mistakes during upper body bodyweight training and provide real-time feedback to the user. To develop the system, a human-centered approach was used, which involved conducting semi-structured interviews with movement ex- perts and a workshop with targeted end-users to understand their needs.

  2. 2. Sport specific strength in alpine competitive skiing : What characterizes alpine elite skiers?

    University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsa

    Author : Mathias Moberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Alpine Skiing; biomechanics; physiology; strength training; elite athletest; alpine elite skiers;

    Abstract : Introduction: Alpine skiing has changed since the 1990s and it is unclear what sport specific strength is within modern alpine elite skiing. Purpose: The aim of this study was to create a strength profile and to investigate what sport specific strength is within alpine elite skiers. READ MORE

  3. 3. Påverkan av ett fysiskt träningsprogram på hull, muskelmassa och kroppsvikt hos hund : ”Body condition score” och morfometriska mått för bröst-, buk- och låromfång

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Johanna Berndtsson; Emilia Deimel; [2022]
    Keywords : BCS; bröstomfång; bukomfång; hullbedömning; låromfång; morfometriska kvoter; morfometriska mått; övervikt;

    Abstract : Det finns begränsat med forskning om hur fysisk träning påverkar hundar och såvitt kandidatarbetets författare känner till finns detingen tidigare studie som undersökt hur “body condition score” (BCS), kroppsvikt, bröst- och buk- och låromfång förhåller sig till varandra hos hundar före och efter ett fysiskt träningsprogram. Syftet med detta kandidatarbete var därför att undersöka hur ett träningsprogram påverkar BCS, kroppsvikt och olika morfometriska mått hos hund. READ MORE

  4. 4. Visualised Instructions for Movement Teaching: A Case Study on Visual Cueing in Follow-Along Bodyweight Video Training

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informatik och media

    Author : Alessandra Semeraro; [2021]
    Keywords : Visual cueing; video-mediated bodyweight training; visual metaphors;

    Abstract : Video-based physical training has gained popularity over the years, among both sports practitioners and HCI researchers, whose works ranged from offering computer-assisted solutions for self-correction, to enhancing the learning experience of trainees. This thesis focused on the latter, by investigating the communicative potential of three categories of visual coaching cues and their impact on movement learning, as well as by deriving methodological considerations for similar works.

  5. 5. Concurrent Validity, Inra-unit, and Inter-unit Reliability of the Vmaxpro for Measuring Velocity

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Avdelningen för idrottsmedicin

    Author : Elias Ståhl; [2021]
    Keywords : Velocity-based training; VBT; 1080 Quantum; test equipment; training prescription; performance assessments; Vmaxpro; Enode Pro; accelerometer;

    Abstract : The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the concurrent validity, intra-unit, and interunit reliability of the IMU Vmaxpro for measuring velocity for VBT purposes. Two protocols were constructed to cover velocities seen in the practical environment. Utilizing the 1080 Quantum the first protocol collected data without the use of subjects. READ MORE
