Effects of front and back squat techniques on patellofemoral joint kinetics in males (2015)
Journal Article
patellofemoral joint kinetics in males. Journal of biomedical engineering and informatics, 2(1), 76-81. https://doi.org/10.5430/jbei.v2n1p76

Purpose: The barbell squat is fundamental in strength and conditioning, with two principal variants; the back and front squat. Unfortunately, the propensity for injury is high particularly at the knee. The aim of the current investigation was exami...

Effect of front and back squat techniques on peak loads experienced by the Achilles tendon (2015)
Journal Article
Sinclair, J., Edmundson, C., Atkins, S., Taylor, P., & Vincent, H. (2015). Effect of front and back squat techniques on peak loads experienced by the Achilles tendon. Baltic Journal of Health and Physical Activity, 7(3),

Background A primary technique in the discipline of strength and conditioning the squat has two principal ‘back and front’ variants. Despite the physiological and strength benefits of the squat, the propensity for musculoskeletal injury is high. Th...

Agreement between the Stages Cycling and SRM powermeter systems during field-based off-road climbing (2015)
Journal Article
SRM powermeter systems during field-based off-road climbing. Journal of science and cycling, 4(1), 21-27

The aim of this study was to determine the agreement between two portable cycling powermeters for use during field based mountain biking. A single participant performed 15 timed ascents of an off-road climb. The participants’ bicycle was instrument...

The effects of barefoot and shod running on limb and joint stiffness characteristics in recreational runners (2015)
Journal Article
Sinclair, J., Atkins, S., & Taylor, P. (2015). The effects of barefoot and shod running on limb and joint stiffness characteristics in recreational runners. Journal of Motor Behavior, 48(1), 79-85. https://doi.org/10.1080/00222895.2015.1044493

The authors aimed to determine the effects of barefoot (BF) and several commercially available barefoot-inspired (BFIS) footwear models on limb and joint stiffness characteristics compared with conventional footwear (CF). Fifteen male participants... Read More about The effects of barefoot and shod running on limb and joint stiffness characteristics in recreational runners.

The test-retest reliability of different ankle joint center location techniques (2015)
Journal Article
location techniques. Foot & ankle journal (Online), 8(1), https://doi.org/10.3827/faoj.2015.0801.0011

Accurate and reliable joint identification is imperative for the collection of meaningful kinetic and kinematic data. Of the lower kinetic chain both the hip and knee joints have received a considerable amount of attention in 3D modelling. However,...

Differences in the high speed match-play characteristics of rugby league players before, during and after a period of tramseridian transition (2015)
Journal Article
Quinn, M., Sinclair, J., & Atkins, S. (2015). Differences in the high speed match-play characteristics of rugby league players before, during and after a period of tramseridian transition. International Journal of Performance Analysis in Sport, 15(3), 1065-1076. https://doi.org/10.1080/24748668.2015.11868851

There is a paucity of information comparing competitive rugby league match play dynamics between northern and southern hemispheres. Notably, differences in the match demands of games played in an intensive period have not previously been reported. Th...
