Mashup Score: 10
In many sports, a player or coach receiving a ‘red card’ is immediately dismissed from the field of play and cannot return to the competition: an event to be avoided! Another red card to be avoided occurs across all sports and levels of participation: the Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs) card. Elite athletes often push the boundaries of activity considered to be healthy in the quest to maximise their athletic potential for success. For many athletes, the fine line between maintaining health while maximising sports performance is elusive when energy requirements are not met, sometimes resulting in reversible health consequences (eg, impaired reproductive function, impaired gastrointestinal function), irreversible health consequences such as permanent bone mineral density loss and failure to reach their athletic potential. Astrid Uhrenholdt Jacobsen, an Olympic Cross Country Skiing Gold Medallist, summarises the dichotomy between maintaining health and the motivation to improve

Mashup Score: 8Exploring the role of intratendinous pressure in the pathogenesis of tendon pathology: a narrative review and conceptual framework - 9 month(s) ago
Despite the high prevalence of tendon pathology in athletes, the underlying pathogenesis is still poorly understood. Various aetiological theories have been presented and rejected in the past, but the tendon cell response model still holds true. This model describes how the tendon cell is the key regulator of the extracellular matrix and how pathology is induced by a failed adaptation to a disturbance of tissue homeostasis. Such failure has been attributed to various kinds of stressors (eg, mechanical, thermal and ischaemic), but crucial elements seem to be missing to fully understand the pathogenesis. Importantly, a disturbance of tissue pressure homeostasis has not yet been considered a possible factor, despite it being associated with numerous pathologies. Therefore, we conducted an extensive narrative literature review on the possible role of intratendinous pressure in the pathogenesis of tendon pathology. This review explores the current understanding of pressure dynamics and the

Mashup Score: 1Evaluating aerial landings in surfing: implications for performance and training (PhD Academy Award) - 1 year(s) ago
> For my thesis, I systematically evaluated how highly skilled surfers performed aerial manoeuvres, to develop evidence-based recommendations which may improve how surfers train for and perform aerials. In surfing, aerial manoeuvres have become popular because they are associated with higher scores during surfing competitions.1 Although aerials can provide surfers with a competitive advantage,…
