Rearfoot striking is associated with lower modeled ACL loading during overground running
Background The purpose of this study was to examine knee ligament forces and conventional kinematic and kinetic variables across forefoot (FFS), midfoot (MFS), and rearfoot (RFS) strikes whilst controlling for running speed. Methods Twenty healthy male participants performed overground running at 4.3 ± 0.2 m/s in each of the strikes. Joint kinematics, moments, ground reaction forces (GRFs), and cruciate ligament forces were determined using muscu…
Aristotle's arm-swing hypothesis
Introduction Aristotle's observational hypothesis suggests that runners may run faster if they swing their arms, yet direct evidence that arm swings enhance propulsion during running is lacking. This paper aims to develop a non-VO2-based computational pipeline to estimate propulsive and vertical impulses from pressure/force and kinematic data, and to examine whether arm-swing modification training can improve running performance. Methods One worl…
Virtual Reality-Based Immersive Rehabilitation for Cognitive- and Behavioral-Impairment-Related Eating Disorders
Virtual reality (VR) technology is one of the promising directions for rehabilitation, especially cognitive rehabilitation. Previous studies demonstrated successful rehabilitation in motor, cognitive, and sensorial functions using VR. The objective of this review is to summarize the current designs and evidence on immersive rehabilitation interventions using VR on cognitive- or behavioral-related eating disorders, which was mapped using a VREHAB …
Gender and Age Differences in Performance of Over 70,000 Chinese Finishers in the Half- and Full-Marathon Events
(1) Background: The aim of the present study was to examine the characteristics of over 70,000 long-distance finishers over the last four years in Chinese half- and full-marathon events; (2) Methods: The available data of all finishers (n = 73,485; women, n = 17,134; men, n = 56,351) who performed half- and full-marathon events in Hangzhou from 2016 to 2019 were further analyzed for the characteristics of gender, age and average running speed; (3…
Pulmonary Capacity, Blood Composition and Metabolism among Coal Mine Workers in High- and Low-Altitude Aboveground and Underground Workplaces
(1) Background: While previous studies revealed how underground mining might adversely affect the cardiopulmonary functions of workers, this study further investigated the differences between under- and aboveground mining at both high and low altitudes, which has received little attention in the literature. (2) Methods: Seventy-one healthy male coal mine workers were recruited, who had worked at least 5 years at the mining sites located above the…
Physical Fitness of Chinese Primary School Students across the Coronavirus (Covid-19) Outbreak
Social distancing measures against COVID-19 imposed restrictions on students that may have affected their physical health and fitness. The objective of this study was to investigate the change in physical fitness of primary school students across the coronavirus outbreaks from 2019 to 2021. This was a retrospective repeated cross-sectional study. We obtained the annual physical and fitness assessment data measured every November for all students …
Effect of Red Arch-Support Insoles on Subjective Comfort and Movement Biomechanics in Various Landing Heights
Red is perceived as a "winning color", which may influence actual and perceived performances in sports, but little effort has been done to assess the added value on colored foot insoles in basketball movements. This study examined if colored foot insole would influence perceived comfort and lower extremity biomechanics during drop landing. Nineteen male basketball players performed drop landing trials with different insoles (red arch-support, whi…
