Comparing Two Articles On Force Analysis

1487 Words6 Pages

Essay 4rd draft Analysing findings from two recent articles, which use force analysis to investigate performance enhancement. (Condello et al., 2016) 12 female and 14 male soccer players were selected. The aim was to investigate biomechanical parameters during a change-of-direction. (McKenzie et al., 2015) 13 female netball players took part. The objective was to examine technical and physical ability to apply (GFR) horizontally when jumping. Comparing and contrasting both articles on their methods and overall findings, furthermore how this relates to performance enhancement. Regarding data collection, there are various similarities. Firstly, in both instances, they were measuring the same variables (GFR) and contact time. Secondly, both …show more content…

There are similarities with both articles in terms of how data was collected for instance both studies used a force plate. Both articles also have various differences such (Condello et al., 2016) only females were chosen compared to McKenzie et al., 2015) where men and female were used. Relating to performance findings can be used to enhance performance (Condello et al., 2016) helping in training allowing for better knowledge of correct angle to cut furthermore (McKenzie et al., 2015) where can be applied to how to jump better more efficiently. Final point both articles have similarities however the differences are far greater than the similarities however findings from both articles can be used to other enhance …show more content…

Jumping up for a header requires the individual to land correctly to avoid falling. As the athlete goes through the motions they don’t think step by step on how to properly land. Irmischer et al., (2004), observed nine weeks of training that focus on neurological adaption, which showed to be successful in reducing ACL injuries within female athletes. A control group and a treatment group where observed throughout 9 weeks. The treatment group was exposed to a knee ligament injury prevention program, which included a plyometric-base jump-landing jump task.

Just as we found, this study concluded that the back squat resulted in higher compressive forces than the front squats. This study as well as our group project, both used the bar, to assist in the squats. This study also used males and females. However, these individuals were experienced at performing front and back squats, which was different from our project. The same muscle groups were measured as ours (rectus fermoris and bicep fermoris).

She has experience training and dealing with sports individuals that have had injuries in the process of play and conducting exercises. It is important to examine the extent of the injury attained at an early stage as she notes to avoid further harm. The author had extensive experience and had to research on the most appropriate measures and response strategies whenever an injury occurs in the playing process. The research provides valuable information on possible injuries that will affect a player, their impacts on health and the most appropriate preventive

A study conducted by researchers in the Center for Injury Research and Policy (CIRP) at Columbus Children 's Hospital, is the first to compare injuries among high school and collegiate football players using a nationally representative sample. According to the study, published in the August issue of The American Journal of Sports Medicine, four out of every 1,000 high school football exposures resulted in an injury, while eight out of every 1,000 collegiate football exposures resulted in an injury.

Physical and Mental Toughness: Football is one of the most challenging sports both physically and mentally. The risk of injury in football is high, and due to the nature of the game bumps, bruises, aches and pains are regular and normal part of the season that every players are forced to fight through. They are required to work through the limitation and challenge’s to give their very best even when their body physical abilities may be limited. In addition to the physical demands of the game mental toughness is essential for players to develop to move past the adversity of a critical mistake during the game or and injury that is limiting their performance and

In such high speed, close contact sports, athletes are required to play accurately and proficiently with high levels of concentration. When playing against a left-hander, right-handers can find it difficult to interpret their future actions and intentions. Therefore, further supporting the negative-frequency hypothesis, left-handers have more of an advantage in these interactive ball sports (Schorer, J. et al 2012 & Loffing, F. et al 2010 & Hagemann, N. 2009 & Raymond, M. et al

This idea can surely help better a player’s ability to head. Another way the physics involved in soccer can aid a player is by the acceleration and force required to shoot a ball. Due to the fact more force is needed for more acceleration, a player could continuously work on leg strength to better their shot on goal. Thus making that person a better goal scorer and overall better competitor in the game of

Throughout this unit of basketball, I have developed and refined my basketball skills and have been able to gain a clear understanding of the motor learning principles and my preference of learning when underpinning my performance of a basketball layup. This has been evaluated by the different types of feedback that I have received throughout the unit in an effort to progress my stage of learning in this motor skill. After analysing each of the three stages of learning, cognitive, associative, and autonomous, it has been made evident through my performance of a basketball layup that I am currently within the associative stage of learning. Motor learning is a change in a person’s capability towards performing a particular skill due to the result

“Be the teacher you want your kids to have” was a statement made during convocation several years ago. That one statement made by Dr. Ryder Warren has stuck with me and made a profound impact on my teaching style. As a new teacher, your perspective on students is somewhat naïve, you’ve heard about differentiation and you have been to professional development for it, but you really feel that all students want to do their best and learn as much as possible. As your years of experience grow, you begin to see the variety of learners and abilities within your classroom and begin to see how crucial differentiation is.
