If you haven't read the paper, "The Sprint Mechanics Assessment Score..." by @chrisbramah, @EatSleepTrain_ et al. yet, you need to. Especially if you use the @Altis Kinogram Method.

Read here https://t.co/d1arhQqjtu about the new Sprint Mechanics Assessment Score. A reliable tool for the in-field assessment of sprint running mechanics which can be integrated into practice to screen for potential hamstring injury risk. #OpenAccess @chrisbramah @SalfordUni

[carlespedret @carlespedret]

We need fewer studies and better research. Make research relevant, replicable, and useful for the end user. @aserner fired the spot.

Great having you Bas! Fantastic day both theory and practical based 👍

[Bas Van Hooren @BasVanHooren]

It was great to present at @Wolves FC last week on how we can use biomechanics to optimize performance and rehab in football.

Thanks Phil Hayward and @benmac79 for organizing.
