Relationships between lower limb biomechanics during single leg squat with running and cutting tasks: a preliminary investigation (2014)
Journal Article
Alenezi, F., Herrington, L., Jones, P., & Jones, R. (2014). Relationships between lower limb biomechanics during single leg squat with running and cutting tasks: a preliminary investigation. British Journal of Sports Medicine, 48(7), 560-561. https://doi.org/10.1136/bjsports-2014-093494.3

BACKGROUND: The need to develop screening tests to find athletes who maybe predisposed to knee injuries is of prime importance in order to design individualised intervention programmes. Previous research has found 3D joint kinematics of the hip and k...

Test-retest reliability and sensitivity of the concept2 dyno dynamometer: practical applications (2014)
Journal Article
Bampouras, T., Marrin, K., Sanley, S., & Jones, P. (2014). Test-retest reliability and sensitivity of the concept2 dyno dynamometer: practical applications. Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 28(5), 1381-1385. https://doi.org/10.1519/JSC.0000000000000269

Strength assessment is often part of the objective periodical observation of teams, squads, or large groups of athletes. Equipment that provides assessment that is mobile and is easy to use will reduce the impact on the athletes’ training and competi...

A comparison of braking characteristics between pre-planned and unanticipated changing direction tasks in female soccer players: An exploratory study (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Jones, P., Stones, S., & Smith, L. (2013, September). A comparison of braking characteristics between pre-planned and unanticipated changing direction tasks in female soccer players: An exploratory study. Poster presented at BASES Annual Conference, St Georges Park, Burton

Changing direction is a common action involved in non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries in female soccer players (Faude et al. [2005]. Am J Sports Med, 33, 1694-1700). Most biomechanical studies into changing direction focus on final contac...

A comparison of isokinetic and functional methods of assessing bilateral strength imbalance (2010)
Journal Article
Jones, P., & Bampouras, T. (2010). A comparison of isokinetic and functional methods of assessing bilateral strength imbalance. Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 24(6), 1553-1558. https://doi.org/10.1519/JSC.0b013e3181dc4392

Muscle strength imbalances have been linked with poor agility performance and higher injury risk. Isokinetic dynamometry has been used to investigate such imbalances; however, this method is impractical and inaccessible for most strength and conditio...

An investigation into the physical determinants of change of direction speed (2009)
Journal Article
Jones, P., Bampouras, T., & Marrin, K. (2009). An investigation into the physical determinants of change of direction speed. Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness, 49(1), 97-104

Aim: change of direction speed (CODS) is an important attribute for many sports and is believed to be influenced by a variety of physical factors. However, there is a lack of consensus as to which physical attributes relate to CODS. The aim of this s...

A biomechanical analysis of the acute effects of complex training using lower limb exercises (2003)
Journal Article
Jones, P., & Lee, A. (2003). A biomechanical analysis of the acute effects of complex training using lower limb exercises. Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 17(4), 694-700

The aim of this study was to investigate the current practice of complex training using a lower body combination of exercises. It was hypothesized that a bout of heavy resistance exercise (HRE), as typically used in complex training, would lead to en...
