Early Versus Late Rapid Force Production During Single Joint Isometric Hamstring Assessment Using Force Plates (2024)
Journal Article
Ripley, N., Barber, R., Fahey, J., & Comfort, P. (in press). Early Versus Late Rapid Force Production During Single Joint Isometric Hamstring Assessment Using Force Plates. Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research,

The aim of this study was to assess differences in time-matched early versus late rapid force (RF) development in female soccer players in the 90-90 isometric hamstring assessment. Twenty-one elite female soccer players (age: 20.7 ± 4.7 years; height...

Effect of Sampling Frequency on a Unilateral Isometric Hamstring Strength Assessment Using Force Plates (2024)
Journal Article
Ripley, N., McMahon, J., & Comfort, P. (2024). Effect of Sampling Frequency on a Unilateral Isometric Hamstring Strength Assessment Using Force Plates. #Journal not on list, https://doi.org/10.1007/s42978-024-00277-w

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of sampling frequency on the 90-90 (90-degrees hip and knee flexion) isometric hamstring assessment. Thirty-three elite female soccer players (age: 18.7 ± 3.7 years; height: 158.3 ± 5.9 cm; body m...

Relative strength explains the differences in multi-joint rapid force production between sexes (2024)
Journal Article
Comfort, P., McMahon, J. J., Lake, J. P., Ripley, N. J., Triplett, N. T., & Haff, G. G. (in press). Relative strength explains the differences in multi-joint rapid force production between sexes. PloS one, 19(2), e0296877. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0296877

The primary aim of this study was to determine whether relative strength explains the differences in the rapid force production (force developed during first 150-, 200-, and 250 ms) of females and males, and to evaluate the relationships between peak...
