متن کاملAsymmetry in volume between dominant and nondominant upper limbs in young tennis players.
This study aimed at demonstrating the asymmetry in volume between the dominant and nondominant upper limbs in tennis players, controlled for maturity status. Upper limb volumes on both sides were calculated in 72 tennis players and 84 control subjects, using the truncated cone method. The participants' maturity status was determined using the predicted age at peak height velocity (PHV). The res...
متن کاملDifferences in muscle power between the dominant and nondominant upper limbs of baseball players.
We examined the differences in muscle power between the dominant and nondominant upper limbs of 33 healthy, right-handed, university baseball players (mean age, 20.4 ± 1.1 years) with an average baseball experience >11 years. After measuring maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) of hand grip, elbow flexion, and shoulder internal rotation in both upper limbs, the muscle power of each joint was mea...
متن کاملComparison of unilateral squat strength between the dominant and non-dominant leg in men and women.
The purpose of this study was to compare unilateral squat strength of the dominant and non-dominant leg in young adult men and women. Seventeen apparently healthy men (mean mass 90.5 ± 20.9 kg and age 21.7 ± 1.8 yrs) and 25 women (mean mass 62.2 ± 14.5 kg and age 21.9 ± 1.3 yrs) completed the study. To determine unilateral strength, the subjects completed a one repetition maximum (1RM) modified...
متن کاملLimbs Made to Measure
This year marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of D’Arcy Thompson, the British biologist, classicist, and all round polymath (For more information on D’Arcy Thompson see www. darcythompson.org). Like many, he was fascinated by the appearance and structure of living matter, and in his influential book, On Growth and Form [1], he set out to describe and explain the principles of morphogenesis...
