It is unknown how structural (sex, stature, body mass) and functional (strength, flexibility)
personal factors influence lifting strategy in paramedic work. We explored whether variance …

This study quantified sex-specific biomechanical adaptations to fatigue in asymmetric lifting.
Twenty-one females and fifteen males performed a prolonged asymmetric lifting protocol …

The movement strategy an individual uses to complete a lift can influence the resultant
biomechanical exposure on their low back. We hypothesize that some lifters may choose a …

Background Differences in reactive stepping strategy to recover balance have been
investigated as a function of age and sex, but to date have been measured using discrete …

Objective To determine whether (i) low back loads and/or (ii) kinematic coordination patterns
differed across theoretical expert, contextual expert and novice groups when completing …

Purpose The objective of this study was to determine the agreement of kinematic parameters
calculated from motion data collected via a 2D video-based pose-estimation (markerless …

Individual responses to fatigue have been observed in lifting kinematics, suggesting a
subject-specific approach is necessary for fatigue identification. One-class support vector …

Lift technique training programs have been implemented to help reduce injury risk, but the
underlying content validity of cues used within these programs is not clear. The objective of …

Background Patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency (ACLD) tend to have
altered lower extremity dynamics. Little is known about the changes in dynamic function and …

This study investigated whether modes of variance in trial-to-trial whole-body kinematic
variability identified by principal component analysis (PCA) were consistent across data pre …
