We searched PubMed, Google Scholar, SPORTDiscus, Scopus, and Web of Science up to June 2024, and included 21 randomized controlled trails (30 intervention groups) comparing resisted modalities against active and passive controls. A multilevel random-effects model using standardized mean differences (SMD) revealed a significant pooled effect (SMD = -0.24, p = 0.005). Subgroup and moderator analyses showed that adolescents exhibited greater improvements in CoD performance compared to adults (SMD = -0.42, p < 0.01), and elite athletes demonstrated larger gains compared to recreational active individuals (SMD = -0.43, p < 0.01). Among training modalities, resisted linear sprinting demonstrated consistent CoD benefits (SMD = -0.29, p < 0.01). Additionally, low-frequency training (SMD = -0.32), relative load (SMD = -0.22), and auto-regulated load (SMD = -0.53) were associated with enhanced CoD speed (all p < 0.05). These findings suggest that resisted training significantly improves CoD ability, particularly among adolescents and elite athletes. Optimizing training parameters, including load prescription, frequency, and resistive type, may effectively enhance CoD outcomes.","PeriodicalId":17066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sports Sciences","volume":" ","pages":"1417-1437"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147321866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data were pooled from eight Australian studies (2009-2014), including 1992 participants aged 2-18 years. Postural behaviours were measured using activPAL monitors and analysed using compositional data analysis. Linear regression models, adjusted for study and wear time, were conducted (n = 1,120 for zBMI; n = 1,071 for zWC), stratified by school setting (preschool, primary, secondary). Postural compositions were significantly associated with zBMI and zWC in primary and secondary school-aged children, but not in preschoolers. In primary school children, more sitting time was associated with lower zWC. Among adolescents, more sitting was linked to higher zBMI, more standing with lower zBMI and zWC, and more stepping with higher zWC. Findings in older children and adolescents suggest that the impact of postural behaviours on adiposity may become more pronounced with age. Longitudinal studies are needed to clarify these relationships.","PeriodicalId":17066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sports Sciences","volume":" ","pages":"1487-1498"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147499343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While rotator cuff injuries are prevalent in lifters, there is limited knowledge on how biological sex impacts shoulder biomechanics during the bench press. This study evaluated the impact of biological sex and fatigue on subacromial space parameters, specifically the acromiohumeral distance and supraspinatus occupation ratio, during the bench press. We hypothesized that the occupation ratio would be higher in female lifters than males. Twenty-four competitive powerlifters (12 M, 12 F) underwent ultrasound imaging to measure supraspinatus tendon thickness and acromiohumeral distance in seated and bench press postures across three phases: pre-warmup, post-warmup and post-exercise. The fatiguing exercise protocol consisted of three sets of eight bench press repetitions at 73.9% 1RM. Females exhibited higher supraspinatus occupation ratios than males in the bench press position (p = 0.001). Female lifters had a significantly smaller acromiohumeral distance than males in the bench press position (p < 0.001). The study found females have a greater supraspinatus occupation ratio during the bench press, increasing their risk for shoulder impingement compared to males. Understanding these sex differences in shoulder biomechanics during the bench press can guide tailored injury prevention and training strategies for powerlifters.","PeriodicalId":17066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sports Sciences","volume":" ","pages":"1453-1463"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147390251","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fifty-three predictor variables were derived from a large dataset containing kinematic and joint kinetic variables of 305 ground contact phases (GC) of 28 male elite bobsleigh athletes, which were input to a Random Forest regressor (RF) to predict average forward acceleration. The push phase was divided into a start acceleration (SAP1: first GC after the push-off from the start-block; SAP2: second GC) and acceleration phase (AP: GC at 10 m) to account for phase-specific differences. Recursive feature elimination was employed to increase model accuracy and reduce complexity. Predictor importance measures (IMP) were quantified as the mean change in test error. The RF consistently performed well in explaining differences in acceleration (SAP1: 67%, SAP2: 60%, AP: 60%). The angle of attack was ranked as the top performance predictor across the push phases (IMP: 0.75-1.1) highlighting the importance of whole-body forward orientation for acceleration. The hip angular impulse was positively associated with performance during SAP1 (IMP: 0.4) and SAP2 (IMP: 0.5), which accentuates the importance of strong hip extensors for resisted acceleration.","PeriodicalId":17066,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sports Sciences","volume":" ","pages":"1438-1452"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147365539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
