Proper stroke posture and rhythm are crucial for kayakers to achieve perfect performance
and avoid the occurrence of sport injuries. The traditional video-based analysis method has …

The purpose was to examine power output and three-dimensional (3D) kinematic variables
in the upper limbs, lower limbs and trunk in elite flat-water kayakers during kayak ergometer …

The aim of this study was to compare the kinematic profile of on-water and on-ergometer
kayaking during maximal paddling. Eleven elite junior female kayak athletes (Mean SD, age …

Injury conditions affecting the upper extremity may lead to severe functional impairment and
an accurate evaluation is needed in order to select the most effective treatment in a …

Success in sprint kayaking depends on the propulsive power generated by trunk, pelvis,
shoulder and lower limb movements. However, no studies have examined whole-body …

Trunk, pelvis, and leg movements are important for performance in sprint kayaking. Para-
kayaking is a new Paralympic sport in which athletes with trunk and/or leg impairment …

Purpose: To determine the reliability and validity of a power-prescribed on-water (OW)
graded exercise test (GXT) for flat-water sprint kayak athletes. Methods: Nine well-trained …

Paddling technique and stroke kinematics are important performance factors in flatwater
sprint kayaking and entail significant energetic demands and a high strength from the …

Force–time characteristics obtained during isometric strength tests are significantly
correlated to various sporting movements. However, data on the relationship between …

Purpose:(1) To compare various physiological indicators of performance during a 5× 1500-
m incremental kayak test performed on an ergometer and on-water and (2) to analyze the …
