A deep dive into the use of local positioning system in professional handball: automatic detection of players’ orientation, position and game phases to analyse specific physical demands
(PLoS ONE. 2023 Aug;18(8):e0289752, 2023-08)The objective of this study is to automate and analyse the quantification of external load during an elite men’s handball match. This study was carried out using data from a local positioning system and ... -
Adding mechanical vibration to a half squat with different ballasts and rhythms increases movement variability
(PLoS ONE. 2023 jul;18(7):e0284863, 2023-07)The aim of this study was to determine whether whole body vibration increases movement variability while performing a half squat with different ballasts and rhythms through entropy. A total of 12 male ... -
Are change of direction speed and agility different abilities from time and coordinative perspectives?
(PLoS ONE. 2023 Dec 7;18(12):e0295405, 2023-12-07)This study aimed to test whether agility and change of direction speed (COD) are independent capacities using the same movement pattern (1) in terms of the completion time and (2) the entropy. Seventeen ... -
Forearm muscles fatigue induced by repetitive braking on a motorcycle is best discriminated by specific kinetic parameters
(PLoS ONE. 2021 Feb 5;16(2):e0246242, 2021-02-05)Maneuvering a motorcycle in racing conditions or for prolonged time is sufficiently demanding that on many occasions forearm muscles reach a state of functional failure when riders cannot properly brake ... -
Physiological demands and motion analysis of elite foil fencing
(PLoS ONE. 2023;18(2):e0281600, 2023)The aim of this study was to determine the physiological demands and motion analysis of a simulated fencing competition. Eighteen fencers each completed 5 ‘poule’ (5 touches) and ‘direct elimination ... -
