Effect of Countermovement Depth on the Neuromechanics of a Vertical Jump

open access: yesTranslational Sports Medicine
The purpose of this study was to examine kinematic, kinetic, and muscle activation metrics during countermovement jumps (CMJs) with varying countermovement depths. The hypothesis was that a shallow countermovement depth would compromise jump height by disrupting neuromechanical control.

Feasibility and Preliminary Efficacy of Integrative Neuromuscular Training for Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Pilot Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often exhibit early deficits in muscle and movement competence, which can compromise long‐term health. Integrative neuromuscular training (INT), a multifaceted approach combining fundamental movement activities with strength exercises, may help address these deficits during ...

Which Strength Qualities Matter Most for Sprinting? Partitioning Unique and Shared Variance in a Multivariable Model

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Individual strength qualities have been associated with sprint performance, but previous researchers have not partitioned the unique and shared variance each contributes, nor included the full range of strength qualities in a single analysis.

Agro‐Industrial Enclosures: Food Security, Land Consolidation and Rural Displacement in China

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, Volume 26, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines rural enclosures for industrialized agriculture as a window into the local political economy and territorial politics underlying projects of agricultural modernization. In recent years, agro‐industrial parks with ‘characteristic’ industries have proliferated in China as the government viewed it as a technical solution to ...

Ischaemic pre‐conditioning improves workload, fatigue and recovery in team sport: A randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled crossover trial

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 7, Page 3322-3336, 1 July 2026.
Abstract Ischaemic preconditioning (IPC) is reported to improve performance, fatigue and recovery, yet evidence in team‐sport settings remains limited. We examined the effects of repeated IPC on external workload, perceptual strain and recovery during ecologically valid Gaelic football training.

Why is countermovement jump height greater than squat jump height?

open access: yes, 1996
In the literature, it is well established that subjects are able to jump higher in a countermovement jump (CMJ) than in a squat jump (SJ). The purpose of this study was to estimate the relative contribution of the time available for force development and
