What are the validity of the single-leg-squat test and its relationship to hip-abduction strength?

Article Abstract:

The Trendelenburg and single-leg-squat (SLS) tests are studied to correlate isometric hip-abduction strength to frontal plane hip motion during an SLS and determine the criterion validity of a clinical-observation-analysis method to grade an SLS against 2-dimensional kinematic analysis. The findings showed a weak, positive correlation between hip-abduction strength and hip-abduction angle during the Trendelenburg and the SLS tests.

Development of information regarding susceptibility to heat illness using the Cooperative Extension Agency model in Kentucky

Article Abstract:

Opportunities to distribute scientific information to wider swaths than normally contained within a readership of a journal and a process to deliver important information through the Cooperative Extension Service are described. It is found to share information from experts to communities and increase the distribution of the latest scientific knowledge to broader audiences.

Sleep efficiency and overreaching in swimmers

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to identify the difference in sleep efficiency between overreached and nonoverreached swimmers. The findings reveal sleep efficiency as an objective, noninvasive predictor and monitor of athletes suffering from overreaching.
