Brandt, Ellissa Kathryn | Assessment of bilateral muscle function symmetry in female alpine skiers | A recent theory for the high occurrence of ACL injuries in female athletes is the presence of asymmetric leg muscle function. Unfortunately, information relative to the bilateral muscle function for the legs of female alpine skiers is lacking. Therefore the primary aim of this project is to examine ... | Anterior Cruciate Ligament - injuries; Skiers, Female; Single leg counter movement jump - Research; Single leg time to stabilization - Research | 2012-05 |

The study of PFDs has yet to be fully explored within exercise and sport science. The measurement of intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) during physical activity may help establi... | Pelvic girdle - Research; Intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) - Research | 2012-05 |

Bennion, David | Validation of force pedals for bilateral strength asymmetry testing | Over 125,000 anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgeries are performed each year in the United States. Rates of re-injury to the reconstructed ACL or contralateral ACL up to 49% have been reported in certain populations. Altered biomechanics-including bilateral asymmetry in knee extensor st... | Anterior Cruciate Ligament - Surgery; Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction - methods | 2014-12 |
