Inertial measurement units (IMUs) allow for measurements of kinematic movements outside the laboratory, persevering the athlete-environment relationship. To use IMUs in a sport-specific setting, it is necessary to validate sport-specific movements. The aim of this study was to assess the concurrent validity …

Wearable inertial sensors (WIS) facilitate the preservation of the athlete-environment relationship by allowing measurement outside the laboratory. WIS systems should be validated for team sports movements before they are used in sports performance and injury prevention research. The aim of the present …

This study examined the influence of both anthropometric and physical performance determinants on the likelihood to be selected to progress through a talent identification and development programme in young tennis. Data were collected in 538 young tennis players (323 males and 215 females) from 6 age …

Inleiding: Bij het meten van de behendigheid bij sport specifieke trainingen en revalidatie in de fysiotherapie ligt de nadruk voor alsnog op het reageren op voorspelbare visuele stimuli. Het meten van reactieve behendigheid, waarbij de nadruk ligt op cognitieve en reactieve impulsen, is een relevant …
