Artistic gymnasts are frequently exposed to both low-and high-magnitude loads through
impacts with the apparatus. These impact loads are thought to be associated with the high …

Growth-related and overuse injuries are commonly reported in young gymnasts. Two risk
factors of these injuries are growth and maturation, and training load. However, little is …

Purpose: To synthesize existing literatures on the impact of gymnastics participation on the
skeletal health of young male gymnasts. Methods: Following a systematic search, 12 studies …

This study examined individual responses in leg stiffness, reactive strength index (RSI),
movement proficiency (deep overhead squat and in-line lunge), and trunk muscular …

Physiological responses and performance were examined during and after a simulated
trampoline competition (STC). Fifteen elite trampoline gymnasts participated, of which eight …
