Time-to-Peak Acceleration vs. Time-to-Peak Velocity: What Performance Coaches Need to Know
Dr. Megan (Bryanton) Jones

Time-to-peak acceleration and time-to-peak velocity provide insight into the different capacities of different athletes. By analyzing these metrics together, coaches can tailor training programs to enhance an athlete's strengths and address areas for improvement, ultimately maximizing their overall sprinting performance.

Muscle fatigue accumulated during gameplay reduces the hamstrings’ ability to eccentrically absorb the lower limb's kinetic energy and limit knee extension during the “swing-stance transition” phase of sprinting. A recent investiga
While the human body does not function as a symmetrical machine, performance differences between each limb has an undeniable association with movement health and injury incidences. Here are some examples of when asymmetry can matter: 1. Sports perf
You are unique. So is your gait. But did you know that different phases and movements are more distinctive than others? In the earlier ground contact phases, your protonation/supination and coronal rotation (in which direction your toes point, side t
