How has biomechanics evolved? A new perspective in the Journal of Applied Biomechanics shows how gait & posture mechanics, once outside the journal's scope, are now central to the field. Read for free here: doi.org/10.1123/jab....

#TBT to 1987 when Dr. Dorris I. Miller analyzed GRFs in the running forward somersault. Peak force hit 13.6x BW! Her work revealed how gymnasts absorb impact + control motion—paving the way for future performance analysis. 📖 doi.org/10.1123/ijsb... #Biomechanics #JAB

This will start to filter through the community today but the Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation Science Study section has been postponed to an unknown future date. The approvals at the highest levels that needed to happen for a federal review meeting to be held didn’t get done. 1/n

The NIH Is literally prohibited by law from commenting on the new NIH restrictions. The NIH can't fight this fight for you. Scientists who want to help people, this has to be your fight.

New paper with alert. We (J. Hafer and S. Roelker) looked to see if muscle coordination quantified by a muscle modules analysis differed with a prolonged walk by muscle fatigue. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Changes in lower extremity muscle coordination over a 30-minute walk do not differ by muscle fatigability
Muscle fatigue, the transient decrease in muscle power, leads to low levels of physical activity and an inability to perform activities of daily livin…

Excited to attend my first RockyMtnASB as a speaker. I’m looking forward to all the great biomechanics but I’m also excited because I love winter in the mountains.
