Within- and between-session reliability of medial gastrocnemius architectural properties (2016)
Journal Article
McMahon, J., Turner, A., & Comfort, P. (2016). Within- and between-session reliability of medial gastrocnemius architectural properties. Biology of Sport, 33(2), 185-188. https://doi.org/10.5604/20831862.1200511

This study aimed to determine the within- and between-session reliability of medial gastrocnemius (MG) architecture (e.g. muscle thickness (MT), fascicle length (FL) and pennation angle (PA)), as derived via ultrasonography followed by manual digit...

Reliability of the 505 change-of-direction test in netball players (2016)
Journal Article
Barber, O., Thomas, C., Jones, P., McMahon, J., & Comfort, P. (2016). Reliability of the 505 change-of-direction test in netball players. International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 11(3), 377-380. https://doi.org/10.1123/ijspp.2015-0215

PURPOSE: To determine the reliability of the 505 change-of-direction (COD) test performed with both a stationary and a flying start. METHODS: Fifty-two female netball players (age 23.9 ± 5.4 y, height 169.9 ± 3.3 cm, body mass 65.2 ± 4.6 kg) pe... Read More about Reliability of the 505 change-of-direction test in netball players.

Effect of sampling frequency on isometric midthigh-pull kinetics (2016)
Journal Article
Dos’Santos, T., Jones, P., Kelly, J., McMahon, J., Comfort, P., & Thomas, C. (2016). Effect of sampling frequency on isometric midthigh-pull kinetics. International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance, 11(2), 255-260. https://doi.org/10.1123/ijspp.2015-0222

Purpose: Skeletal-muscle function can be evaluated using force–times curves generated via the isometric midthigh pull (IMTP). Various sampling frequencies (500–1000 Hz) have been used for IMTP assessments; however, no research has investigated the in...
