My questions on barefoot/minimalist exposure: 1) If you’re active/exercise regularly, are your foot muscles getting enough loading exposure for “strengthening” regardless of shoes? 2) What’s enough loading? 3) Are stronger feet useful at all for better health/performance?

🚨 New Article Alert! 🚨 Let’s pause and take a look at the present state of biomechanics in our slice of the scientific world. Check out this review from Benno Nigg and let us know what you think. #footwearscience tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…

Grateful to present my poster at #FBS023 In this work I found that knee extensor fatigue incurs a significant metabolic penalty in running but the same was not found for the plantarflexors.

Presented at my first conference #ISB2023 I promise there was more than one person in the crowd.

Data collection is almost complete for my study exploring #running #footwear and #fatigue! I need a #Sydney-based male runners (18-40yr), who can: - Run a 10km in 43min or less - Run 40km a week or more - Have been running for at least 3yr Please reach out if interested

Ep.15 of ResearchBytesPodcast is live, and this one is for the #runners. It's a rare insight into how we assess the neuromuscular system in #sport and #exercise #science.

Happy to present my first 3 minute thesis talk at #neura on #running 🏃#fatigue 💪😫and #footwear 👟

🏀 NEW BASKETBALL FOOTWEAR STUDY! We need players to help us discover how different basketball shoe designs impact jump, agility, and sprint biomechanics👟 Participants receive a $50 gift card! Testing dates: June 4th-7th La Trobe University (Bundoora) More details below ⬇️

Incoming TJACSM Editor-in-Chief, Lisa Griffin, shares what's ahead for the journal as she takes the helm. Read the editorial: brnw.ch/21wKvLG

Conclusion ➡️ In high-level athletes MTPj flexion torque was more strongly associated with high-speed sprinting performance kinetics⚡️ The big questions now: How to improve effectively forefoot strength in athletes ? And will be there an effect on sport performance kinetics ?

📢New paper out! Wearable Biofeedback devices can lead to multiple gait patterns in populations with similar characteristics. Some of the biomechanic changes and reasons for such results were explored here: link.springer.com/article/10.100… AMBER: App. Mechatronics & Biomedical Research Grp UOW #wearabledevices #biofeedback
