Had a great day with RCL collegues @TheISEH lonSport & Exercise Medicine Conference. Such an incredible lineup of presenters but particularly loved the talks on Female Athlete Health and Respiratory Medicine.

We are recruiting for our current study on low energy availability in #netball , based in North London.
Get the chance to access our state of the art facilities in this first-of-its-kind study into netball health and performance!
Shares appreciated!

[Kat Watson (Paice) @kat_paice]

We are collecting more data for this study at @MDX_LSI ! Looking for females competing in any sport at any level to complete two short surveys for my PhD, please share! #women #sport #Fitness https://t.co/P0yVntQaDd

Recently I had the honor of being invited to speak on Strength Training in Female Runners. Such a great event & wonderful opportunity to connect with other professionals in the field of female performance!

🗣️ Great day at the 16th Annual Strength and Conditioning Student Conference, showcasing a wide breadth of presentations, practical workshops and a roundtable to finish the day.

🙏 Big thanks to: @PaulComfort1975, @shy_2tweet, @anthonyturneruk and the team @HawkinDynamics.

In 2019 I sat down with these 4 fellas and discussed my research ideas for a PhD. Thankfully they all agreed and guided me through the journey to become Dr Ange. This was the first time we've all been in the same room together since that fateful conversation. #phd #biomechanics

[Shyam Chavda @shy_2tweet]

Our recently accepted paper on supramax clean pulls and its effect on clean mechanics and endocrine responses.

Was great to collaborate on another paper! Pay attention to the performance of that first pull!

[Shaun Joffe @ShaunJoffe]

Really pleased to have this published in @NSCASCJonline reviewing the evidence emphasizing the importance of maximal force capabilities in the first pull. Big thanks to my coauthors @shy_2tweet @PaulComfort1975 @angesorensen #weightlifting

[Prof Anthony Turner @anthonyturneruk]

Congratulations to Dr @shy_2tweet 🎉 🏋️‍♂️

An incredible defence of his PhD thesis in elite weightlifters, examined by the incredible @MUSportScience 🇺🇸 and @DocLachJames 🇦🇺

Thanks to fellow supervisors @PaulComfort1975 and @ProfJLake and panel chair @DrChrisBishop

[Prof Anthony Turner @anthonyturneruk]

Published ahead of print in @NSCASCJonline

What do you think of this definition of Evidence-based practice in S&C?

Research 🤝 coach wisdom

[Angela Sorensen, PhD @angesorensen]

How has it been one year since successfully defending my thesis?! Still loving being involved in research and always looking for more opportunities to collaborate!

[Angela Sorensen, PhD @angesorensen]

Well...it's official! Successfully defended my thesis (pending minor revisions) and am now Dr Sorensen! Could not have made it without @anthonyturneruk @shy_2tweet @ProfJLake @PaulComfort1975!

📄 More great work from @Jiaqing_Xu96, this time looking at inter-limb asymmetry from the CMJ, CMRJ and DJ tests.

💡 Directionality much better in these (bilateral) assessments than our previous work, unilaterally.

@SimonWalkerPhD @PaulComfort1975 Thanks for letting me join in on the fun with you both! Would love to see the pics and vids of it. 💪🏻

[Angela Sorensen, PhD @angesorensen]

Absolutely incredible experience presenting @JYUsport_health International Conference on Strength Training! Thank you to @KeijoHakkinen for the invite. Also great to catch up with advisors turned friends @PaulComfort1975 @ProfJLake and meet @Doc_Haff! See you at the next one!

[Angela Sorensen, PhD @angesorensen]

Had a great time working alongside two of the best weightlifting researchers out there!

[G. Gregory Haff @Doc_Haff]

Was great to talk about and demo a few weightlifting exercises with ⁦@PaulComfort1975⁩ and ⁦@angesorensen⁩

[Angela Sorensen, PhD @angesorensen]

Really looking forward to speaking more about my research into weightlifting biomechanics!

[JYU Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences @JYUsport_health]

The 4th theme of the 12th ICST is exploring Neural adaptations and the biomechanics of strength training.

Keynote speakers Dawson Kidgell and @Doc_Haff, and invited speakers @angesorensen and Jarmo Piirainen will be presenting.
