Changes in ankle proprioception and neuromuscular function following an acute bout of British Army foot drill: Implications of lower-limb musculoskeletal injury risk (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Rawcliffe, A., Simpson, R., Graham, S., Psycharakis, S., Bansbach, H., & Connaboy, C. Changes in ankle proprioception and neuromuscular function following an acute bout of British Army foot drill: Implications of lower-limb musculoskeletal injury risk. Presented at 4th International Congress on Soldiers' Physical Performance, Melbourne, Australia

Introduction: The cyclic high impact loading forces and kinematics of British Army foot-drill suggest that foot-drill may contribute to the high incidence rates of lower-limb musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries reported in recruit populations. Transient a... Read More about Changes in ankle proprioception and neuromuscular function following an acute bout of British Army foot drill: Implications of lower-limb musculoskeletal injury risk.

Validation of a 6-s Cycle Ergometry Sprint to Measure Peak Power in Recreationally Active Females (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Graham, W. M., Grace, F., Sculthorpe, N., Baker, J., Connaboy, C., & Baird, M. F. Validation of a 6-s Cycle Ergometry Sprint to Measure Peak Power in Recreationally Active Females

The 30-s Wingate Anaerobic Test (WAnT30) is frequently used to determine peak anaerobic power (PP). When PP, which is generally achieved within the first 5-s is the primary measure of interest, there may be no advantage in completing a 30-s test. It...

Effects Of Additional Carried Load On Perception-action Coupling During A Discrete Horizontal Jump Task: 954 Board #270 June 1, 2 (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Connaboy, C., Riddle, C., Simpson, R. J., & Graham, S. M. Effects Of Additional Carried Load On Perception-action Coupling During A Discrete Horizontal Jump Task: 954 Board #270 June 1, 2. Presented at American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) Annual Meeting, Boston, US

Perception-Action coupling (PAC) is the reciprocal animal/environment interaction by which actions are controlled. Successful PAC requires accurate perception of affordances (opportunities for action), in relation to action capabilities/boundaries. A...

Injury, Sleep, Mood And Performance And The Role Of Mental Toughness During An Arctic Ultra-marathon (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Martindale, R., Graham, S., Connaboy, C., & McKinley, M. (2015, May). Injury, Sleep, Mood And Performance And The Role Of Mental Toughness During An Arctic Ultra-marathon. Poster presented at American College of Sports Medicine. Annual Meeting, San Diego, California, USA

Studies examining ultra-endurance racing in ‘extreme environments’ are sparse. However, research has shown that injury and sleep management are crucial. For example, sleep deprivation has been shown to be associated with mood, which can impact on per...

An Investigation Into The Effectiveness Of Ratings Of Perceived Exertion In Cardiac Rehabilitation Exercise (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Graham, S. M., Martindale, R., Baird, M., Thow, M., & McKinley, M. An Investigation Into The Effectiveness Of Ratings Of Perceived Exertion In Cardiac Rehabilitation Exercise. Presented at American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) International Conference, Orlando, USA

INTRODUCTION: Within Scotland, Cardiac Rehabilitation Phase IV (CRIV) exercise classes are widely utilised to deliver community-based exercise utilising traditional circuit type exercise for both genders. Currently no gender specific rating of percei... Read More about An Investigation Into The Effectiveness Of Ratings Of Perceived Exertion In Cardiac Rehabilitation Exercise.
