Isometric training at longer muscle–tendon complex lengths: A potential countermeasure to impaired neuro‐muscle–tendon function during space travel

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4041-4053, 1 September 2026.
Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...

Combined Lateral Patellofemoral Ligament and Lateral Patellotibial Ligament Reconstruction for Medial Patellar Instability

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Medial patellar instability is an uncommon but debilitating condition that may arise following excessive lateral retinacular release. The lateral patellofemoral ligament and lateral patellotibial ligament function as key static stabilizers that resist medial patellar translation throughout knee flexion.

Effects of Optimum Power Load vs Mixed Model Training Methods on Lower Limb Strength and Dynamic Performance in Female Athletes

International Journal of Strength and Conditioning
Training with optimum power load (OPL) was shown to result in improved lower limb strength. However, recent study has recommended using the mixed model training (MMT) method which involves frequent varying of training loads.

Relationships between lower body muscle structure and isometric mid-thigh pull peak force

Journal of Trainology, 2015
Objectives: To explore relationships between aspects of vastus lateralis (VL) and medial gastrocnemius (MG) muscle structure (muscle thickness, fascicle length and pennation angle) and isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP) peak force capacity. Design and Methods: Fifteen male collegiate athletes (height 1.79 ± 0.05 m; body mass 82.8 ± 8.1 kg, age 23.2 ± 3.4 ...

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using a Hollow Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System Semitendinosus Autograft Combined With Anterolateral Complex Augmentation Using Gracilis

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This technical note describes an alternative surgical technique for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction combined with anterolateral complex (ALC) augmentation. The procedure uses a hollow ligament advanced reinforcement system (LARS), along with semitendinosus and gracilis tendons as grafts.

Comparison of the reliability of peark forece measured during an isometric and mid-thigh pull and isometric squat

, 2017
The purpose of this study was to compare peak force produced during the isometric midthigh pull (IMTP) and isometric squat (IsoSquat), performed at the same knee and hip angles (135 – 140°) and determine the reliability of both tests. Following a specific warmup, 22 international athletes from different sports performed 2 maximal effort tests of both ...

Reverse Passing of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Simultaneous Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction Using Hamstring Autograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction continues to evolve as surgical techniques aim to optimize graft placement, increase rotational control, and reduce graft failure in high‐risk populations. This technical note describes an inverse anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction combined with an anatomic anterolateral ligament reconstruction,

Simplifying Iliotibial Band Lateral Extra‐articular Tenodesis Fixation During Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Hardware‐Sparing Approach

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The addition of a lateral extra‐articular tenodesis to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has been shown to reduce graft failure and improve rotational stability, but current fixation methods often require additional tunnels or hardware, with risks of tunnel convergence, irritation, and hardware removal. This technical paper describes a

Single‐Stage Repair of Complex Anterolateral Radial and Posterior Root Tears of the Lateral Meniscus, With a Concomitant Multiligament Knee Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament, Medial Collateral Ligament, Posterior Oblique Ligament, and Anterolateral Ligament in a Young Athlete

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Early meniscal repair and anatomic reconstruction in a multiligament knee injury optimizes outcomes and restores tibiofemoral mechanics. This technique describes a lateral meniscus posterior root and radial tear repair, with concomitant medial ramp repair, performed during single‐stage reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament ...
