A review of recent perspectives on biomechanical risk factors associated with anterior cruciate ligament injury [PDF]

, 2014
There is considerable evidence to support a number of biomechanical risk factors associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. This paper aimed to review these biomechanical risk factors and highlight future directions relating to ...

Strength Training for Skeletal Muscle Endurance after Stroke [PDF]

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2017
Initial studies support the use of strength training (ST) as a safe and effective intervention after stroke. Our previous work shows that relatively aggressive, higher intensity ST translates into large effect sizes for paretic and non-paretic leg muscle volume, myostatin expression, and maximum strength post-stroke.
