Journal Article
Bury, J., & Littlewood, C. (2018). Rotator cuff disorders: a survey of current (2016) UK physiotherapy practice. Shoulder and Elbow, 10(1), 52-61. https://doi.org/10.1177/1758573217717103

Background: Shoulder pain is a common musculoskeletal presentation, with disorders of the rotator cuff (RC) regarded as the most frequent cause. Conservative treatment is often the initial management; however, findings from a previous survey showed c...

Effect of low-pass filtering on isometric midthigh pull kinetics (2018)
Journal Article
Dos'Santos, T., Lake, J., Jones, P., & Comfort, P. (2018). Effect of low-pass filtering on isometric midthigh pull kinetics. Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 32(4), 983-989. https://doi.org/10.1519/JSC.0000000000002473

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of low-pass filtering on isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP) kinetics, including body weight (BW), onset threshold force, time-specific force values (50, 100, 150 and 200 ms) and peak force (PF). Fo... Read More about Effect of low-pass filtering on isometric midthigh pull kinetics.
