The effects of a novel neuromuscular training programme on recreational female hockey players during a sagittal plane hop, hop and twist and unanticipated sidecut (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Johnston, T., Brown, S., & Kaliarntas, K. (2024, July). The effects of a novel neuromuscular training programme on recreational female hockey players during a sagittal plane hop, hop and twist and unanticipated sidecut. Poster presented at 29th Annual Congress of European College of Sport Science, Glasgow, UK

INTRODUCTION: Females are at greater risk than other populations to sustain a noncontact injury especially the knee,
hamstring and ankle (Lin et al., 2018). This may be, in part, associated with muscle activation, landing technique leading to
great... Read More about The effects of a novel neuromuscular training programme on recreational female hockey players during a sagittal plane hop, hop and twist and unanticipated sidecut.

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Johnston, T., Kaliarntas, K., & Brown, S. (2024, February). Effects of a novel neuromuscular training programme on recreational female hockey players during an unanticipated sidecut. Presented at 7th IOC World Conference on Prevention of Injury and Illness in Sport, Monaco, 29 February–2 March 2024, Monaco

Background
Female hockey players are at a high risk of noncontact injuries which could be potentially mitigated with neuromuscular training.

Objective
This study assessed the effects of a sport-specific
neuromuscular training (NMT) programme... Read More about Effects of a novel neuromuscular training programme on recreational female hockey players during an unanticipated sidecut.

Effects of Nordic hamstring exercise on hamstring stiffness, strength, and flexibility (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kaliarntas, K., Morais, N., & Souglis, A. (2023, July). Effects of Nordic hamstring exercise on hamstring stiffness, strength, and flexibility. Poster presented at ISB 2023 Congress XXIX, Fukuoka, Japan

INTRODUCTION
Hamsting injuries are among the most common injuries in athletes. Eccentric training has been shown to reduce hamstring injury rates. The Nordic Hamsting Exercise (NHE) is an eccentric exercise performed at short muscle length and has b...

Playing position effects on biomarkers in male futsal players (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kaliarntas, K., Souglis, A., Andronikos, G., & Bogdanis, G. (2023, July). Playing position effects on biomarkers in male futsal players. Poster presented at ECSS Paris 2023, Paris

INTRODUCTION:
Futsal or five-a-side indoor soccer is an ever-increasing in popularity team sport. Currently, studies focusing on the effects of playing position in futsal are limited let alone combining different playing position and measurement of...

Trunk muscle activity during dynamic exercises on land and in water for participants with and without chronic low back pain (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Linton, L., Valentine, S., Coleman, S., Kaliarntas, K., & Psycharakis, S. (2017, November). Trunk muscle activity during dynamic exercises on land and in water for participants with and without chronic low back pain. Presented at Physiotherapy UK Conference 2017, Birmingham, UK

Aquatic exercise is beneficial in managing Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP), however information is lacking as to which exercises are appropriate for targeting specific muscle groups. Whilst there is greater understanding of trunk and hip muscle activati...

Non-contact injury incidence and warm-up observation in hockey in Scotland (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Johnston, T., Brown, S., Kaliarntas, K., & Taylor, C. (2016, August). Non-contact injury incidence and warm-up observation in hockey in Scotland. Poster presented at International Sports Science + Sports Medicine Conference 2016

Noncontact injuries occur during manoeuvres such as landing, accelerating and the side-cut. This investigation has assessed the prevalence and manoeuvres associated with noncontact injuries and the current warm up practice. An online questionnaire wa...
