- Conditions
- FatigueLanding Biomechanics
- Interventions
- Other: 3D analysis of landing task
- Registration Number
- NCT04674007
- Lead Sponsor
- University Ghent
- Brief Summary
In this study, three-dimensional biomechanics , by means of lower limb joint angles and moments (opto-electronic system with synchronised force plate), of landing tasks (anticipated, unanticipated and cognitive dual task) before and after a mental fatigue protocol will be compared in a population of basketball, handball and volleyball players.
