Swinging a golf club includes the rotation and extension of the lumbar spine. Golf-related low back pain has been associated with degeneration of the lumbar facet and intervertebral discs, and with spondylolysis. Reflective markers were placed directly onto the skin of 11young male amateur golfers without a previous history of back pain. Using a VICON system (Oxford Metrics, U.K.), full golf sw...

The health effects of playing golf on the athlete's body is an interesting topic. effect increasing blood saturation has low presence in literature. This paper demonstrates correlation improving status after COVID-19 while this positive information a potential to be used by marketing management various organisations improve economics activities. We analyse change and heart rate 18-hole course, ...

Heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback (BFB) is a relatively new approach for helping athletes to regulate competitive stress. To investigate this phenomenon further, a qualitative case study examined the impact of HRV BFB on the mood, physiology, and sport performance of a 14-year-old golfer. The golfer met once per week at a university lab for 10 consecutive sessions of HRV BFB training tha...

While the role of the upper torso and pelvis in driving performance is anecdotally appreciated by golf instructors, their actual biomechanical role is unclear. The aims of this study were to describe upper torso and pelvis rotation and velocity during the golf swing and determine their role in ball velocity. One hundred recreational golfers underwent a biomechanical golf swing analysis using th...

The GOLF instrument provides a stable and continuous measurement of the intensity of spatially integrated sunlight in one wing of the sodium D lines. Because the detected radiation results from atomic scattering, the GOLF signal can be traced to an atomic reference wavelength. The planned operations were to involve a form of relative photometry through the use of measurements on both the blue a...

SUMMARY Golf-related stroke has not been systematically reviewed. The purpose of our study was to describe in detail this particular stroke syndrome. Seven patients were analyzed at a university hospital and 7 patients were reviewed from MEDLINE literature. General demographics, symptom onset, neurologic signs, radiologic findings, and outcome were investigated. A total of 14 patients including...

When the Nintendo Wii was released to the public in November 2006, video game play was changed. The unique motion sensing technology allowed game players to interact with the game environment using kinesthetic body motions that replicated realworld activities. In essence, the Wii acts as a virtual simulator for many types of games and activities including bowling, tennis and golf. When combined...

Growing ; evidence suggests that Heart Rate Variability (HRV) biofeedback (BFB) may improve sport performance by helping athletes cope with the stress of competition. This study sought to identify whether HRV BFB procedure impacted psychological, physiological, and sport performance of a collegiate golfer. This individual was randomly selected to participate in 10 weeks of HRV BFB training acco...

In a dynamic customer-centric supply chain context, classic forecasting models turn out to have a limited applicability. In order to estimate the key performance indices of these Supply Chains and to facilitate their management, it is necessary to use more elaborate tools such as a simulation. However building simulation of customer-centric supply chains is no trivial matter. It requires the el...
