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 different landing manoevres will be compared in a population of basketball and volleyball players.

Detailed Description

In this study, three-dimensional biomechanics , by means of lower limb joint angles and moments (opto-electronic system with synchronised force plate), of different landing manoevres will be compared in a population of basketball and volleyball players. General as well as more sport-specific jumps will be performed in this study.
