Bij onderwijzen in het algemeen zijn mensen van nature gewend om expliciet te vertellen wat iemand moet doen. Dit is, zo blijkt uit onderzoek, ook in het vak van trainer-coach het geval. We willen iemand immers graag helpen en vertellen hoe het moet. Maar het kan ook anders.

Hop tests are frequently used to determine return to sports (RTS) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Given that bilateral deficits are present after ACLR, this may result in a falsely high limb symmetry index (LSI), since LSI is calculated as a ratio between the values of the limbs.HypothesisAthletes …

Purpose Adding external focus of attention (EF, focus on the movement effect) may optimize current anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury prevention programmes. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the effects of an EF, by a visual stimulus and an internal focus, by a verbal stimulus …

Een reconstructie van de voorste kruisband (VKB) brengt hoge me- dische en maatschappelijke kosten met zich mee. De auteurs van dit artikel vatten de resultaten van wetenschappelijk onderzoek naar preventieprogramma’s voor VKB- blessures samen. Zij vullen deze aan met nieuwe inzichten over mo- torisch …

It is unknown how movement patterns that are learned carry over to the field. The objective was to deter- mine whether training during a jump-landing task would transfer to lower extremity kinematics and kinetics during sidestep cutting.Methods Forty healthy athletes were assigned to the ver- bal internal …

Background: Retention of movement technique is crucial in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury pre- vention programs. It is unknown if specific instructions or video instructions result in changes in kine- matic and kinetic measures during a relatively short training session, and in a retention test …

Introduction: Cutting is an important skill in team-sports, but unfortunately is also related to non-contact ACL injuries. The purpose was to examine knee kinetics and kinematics at different cutting angles. Material and methods: 13 males and 16 females performed cuts at different angles (45 , 90 , 135 …

The aim of this study is to investigate the predictive value of landing stability and technique to gain insight into risk factors for ankle and knee injuries in indoor team sport players. Seventyfive male and female basketball, volleyball or korfball players were screened by measuring landing stability …

Blessurepreventieve oefenprogramma’s zijn in de sport niet erg populair. Hun effectiviteit staat ter discussie en het feit dat ze doorgaans geen directe bijdrage leveren aan prestatieverbetering komt de motivatie van coaches en sporters niet ten goede. Het toepassen van motorische leerprincipes binnen …
