It was fantastic to be invited to the @isbs_conference this year to present a keynote! Thank you to all who have attended and of course the conference organizers! Was able to show off the new city campus images for @EdithCowanUni and our new @Vicon system to start!
@DocSoph Keynote Lecture this morning for The Paradox of “Perfect” Performance. We’re so glad you’re enjoying your new Valkyrie system! 🙌 #ISBS2024 @isbs_conference @ISBSOFFICIAL
Women competed in best-of-five #tennis matches more than 130 years ago and the #AusOpen tried to introduce five-set finals for women back in 1994. Yet women still only play three sets ... why? Via @DocSoph and Caitlin Fox-Harding from @EdithCowanUni theconversation.com/game-set-debat…
Game, set, debate: why do women only play 3 sets in tennis? theconversation.com/game-set-debat… via @ConversationEDU With the @AustralianOpen moving towards the finals. What if? 🤔 #tennis #womeninsport #sportscience @EdithCowan @EdithCowanUni

🏋🏻Resistance training decreased valgus & internal rotation moments during unplanned #sidesteps in elite #female athletes ❓we compared #dynamic vs #isometric resistance training and its effect on knee joint kinetics associated with #ACL injuries read.qxmd.com/read/39186066
Really excited about our research into #acl injury prevention for women and girls, and a privilege to witness the determination and work ethic of @freodockersAFLW captain Ange Stannett on her pathway to recovery @DocSoph @ashnelson08 @Lachy_Reid
A big thanks to @freodockersAFLW Skipper Ange Stannett for sharing her ACL story with @10NewsFirstPER . Vital we continue to invest in research and prevention programs to reduce the rate of ACL injuries in female sport including @aflwomens . @PerthSportsDoc appreciate your…
I just got a personal thank you from @athlos and @alexisohanian !🙌🏾 For anyone that hasn't seen the merch how could you not want to be a "Women's Track Groupie" -> Join the movement, we take newcomers and long awaiting loyalists! #womeninsport 👊🏾 athlos-shop.fourthwall.com/thank-you/ty_I…
What a brilliant way to kick start the 2024 @isbs_conference with @JacquelineUWA taking us on her impressive journey at the forefront of biomechanics (perfectly sprinkled with machine learning and computer vision). A truly inspiring @ISBSOFFICIAL Dyson lecture to remember 🤩
Hey everyone in #sportscience and #exercisescience, looking for you to provide some input on #openscience … they say … hard things are things worth doing :) help us do better! Information below 👇🏽

Great job to @matt_thome & collab with @ALTIS… New 💭 with interesting discussion comparing inflection of ⬆️ muscle force Hams/GMax as similar to rise in RPE - TRIMP). Proposing the conmection in biomech & phys many may find interesting 🧐 & spur new hypotheses!
Glad to have finally published this one! Second paper from my PhD: Relationship between external training load and sRPE-TRIMP in elite sprinters. @DocSoph @DrRobinThorpe @JordanStrength @StuartMcMillan1 @The_DanKadlec journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/…
Seriously … we can adapt … let’s try it 🙌🏽🙌🏽👊🏽👊🏽 @S_Emmonds dual running the messaging just in different parts of the world :)

After ranting on the habit of picking up heavy things, I always put my own bag in the boot. I picked it up & my Uber human said, I’ll get that… so I passed it to him & let go. His eyes bulged (maybe his back too) & I said - heavy? 😊 I reiterate my talk, challenge assumptions 💪🏽
