Kinetics and kinematics of sprinting in mid and post peak height velocity female athletes
International Journal of Strength and Conditioning, 2021 Sprinting speed is a crucial physical capacity and can change throughout an athlete’s growth. Previous research has shown that both kinetic and kinematic variables change across maturation in young males.

A comprehensive assessment of caffeine’s effects on components of countermovement jump performance
Biology of Sport, 2021 The aim of this study was to conduct a comprehensive examination of caffeine’s effects on countermovement jump (CMJ) performance. In this randomized, double-blind, crossover study, twenty-two resistance-trained men (age: 28 ± 5 years; height: 183 ± 5 cm;

Is there any association between school-aged children’s maturity and movement efficiency? [PDF]
Journal of Shahrekord University of Medical Sciences, 2023 Background and aims: Significant biological changes occur during growth spurts, particularly at pre/post-maturity stages. It seems that such changes are associated with neuromuscular patterns, with considerable differences in functional movements ...

Peak Height Velocity Affects Injury Burden in Circa-PHV Soccer Players
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2022 AbstractGrowth and maturation are potential risk factors for soccer injuries. This research sought to describe how peak height velocity (PHV) affects overall and specific injury burden in circa- and post-PHV elite academy soccer players. Injuries and growth data collected from 2000 to 2020 were studied retrospectively.

Optimal design for longitudinal studies to estimate pubertal height growth in individuals
Annals of Human Biology, 2018 Background: The SITAR model expresses individual pubertal height growth in terms of mean size, peak height velocity (PHV) and age at PHV. Aim: To use SITAR to identify the optimal time interval between measurements to summarise individual pubertal height
