Differences between the sexes in knee kinetics during landing from volleyball block jumps
Hughes, G.; Watkins, J.; Owen, N. (2010)The aim of the study was to assess frontal and sagittal plane kinetics (normalized ground reaction force and normalized knee moment) in male and female university volleyball players when performing opposed block jump ... -
The effects of opposition and gender on knee kinematics and ground reaction force during landing from volleyball block jumps
Hughes, G.; Watkins, J.; Owen, N. (2010)The aim of this study was to examine the effect of apposition and gender on knee kinematics and ground reaction force during landing from a volleyball block pimp. Six female and six male university volleyball players ... -
Gender differences in knee kinematics during landing from volleyball block jumps
Hughes, G.; Watkins, J.; Owen, N.; Lewis, M. (2007)The aims of the present study were to investigate the effects of gender on frontal and sagittal plane knee kinematics in university volleyball players when performing opposed block jump landings. 6 female and 6 male ... -
Gender differences in lower limb frontal plane kinematics during landing
Hughes, G.; Watkins, J.; Owen, N. (2008)The study aimed to investigate gender differences in knee valgus angle and inter-knee and inter-ankle distances in university volleyball players when performing opposed block jump landings. Six female and six male university ... -
Lower limb coordination and stiffness during landing from volleyball block jumps
Hughes, G.; Watkins, J. (2008)The aim of the study was to investigate lower limb coordination and stiffness in five male and five female university volleyball players performing block jump landings. Coordination was assessed using angle – angle plots ... -
Reflections of a novice sports science lecturer: perceptions of the challenges and sources of support
Hughes, G. (2010)A lecturer is typically required to perform the roles of administrator, teacher, personal tutor, researcher and consultant. This article aims to highlight the main perceived demands and challenges a novice sports science ... -
A risk factor model for anterior cruciate ligament injury
Hughes, G.; Watkins, J. (2006)The incidence of non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is reported to be 6-8 times greater in females than males competing in the same activities. Injury to the ACL occurs as a result of insufficient stability ...
