Artificial gravity (AG) created by short-radius centrifugation is a promising countermeasure to the physiological de-conditioning that results from long-duration spaceflight. However, as on Earth, gravity alone does not ensure fitness. We will need to supplement passive exposure to AG with physical exercise to achieve a comprehensive countermeasure. Before AG exercise can be deemed safe and effective, we must understand how Coriolis accelerations and a gravity gradient affect our biomechanics and how centrifuge-based exercises differ from Earth-upright ones. Two experiments were designed to investigate the squat biomechanics while upright in the laboratory and while lying supine on a horizontal, clockwise-rotating short-radius centrifuge at speeds up to 30 revolutions per minute. Constant force springs provided additional resistive force up to 25% of body weight. Dependent measure included the three-dimensional position of the left and right knee, left and right foot reaction forces, and muscle activity. We investigated the Coriolis-induced mediolateral knee perturbations and the sensory-motor after-effects from a multiple repetition protocol. The upright and centrifuge biomechanics were compared for similarities and differences between them. In addition, a two-dimensional kinematic model was developed to predict foot reaction forces, Coriolis accelerations, and joint torques.
(cont.) Our results show that mediolateral knee travel during the AG squats was 1.0 to 2.0 centimeters greater than Earth-upright squats. Increasing the rotation rate or adding resistive force did not affect the results. The peak foot forces increased with rotation rate, but rarely exceeded 200% body weight. The ratio of left-to-right foot force during centrifugation was non-constant and approximately sinusoidal, suggesting a postural correction for the Coriolis accelerations. There was a qualitative difference in the foot force vs. knee angle profile between upright and centrifuge-supine because of the centripetal acceleration. Muscle activity, however, was qualitatively similar between the conditions. The kinematic model was used to evaluate the exercise safety and extend the results to larger-radius centrifuges. We conclude that centrifugation provides a unique and challenging environment for exercise and that a brief artificial gravity squat can be carried out safely. The results are extended to cycle ergometry, when possible, and recommendations are made for future AG squat protocols.

Full textIntrodução: A aplicação de Kinesio Tape tem sido utilizada para melhorar o desempenho desportivo. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar os efeitos agudos da aplicação de Kinesio Tape na performance do salto vertical. Metodologia: A amostra foi constituída por 12 participantes (7 mulheres e 5 homens), com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 35 anos. Todos os participantes foram avaliados em duas sessões onde foi aplicado o procedimento experimental ou de controlo, de forma randomizada. Para avaliar o desempenho do salto vertical recorreu-se à utilização do Ergojump®. Resultados: Verificou-se uma diminuição significativa da performance após o procedimento de controlo que não se verificou após a aplicação da ligadura. Conclusão: A aplicação da ligadura não melhorou a performance do salto vertical, mas parece indiciar efeitos protetores de diminuição da performance de salto. Introduction: The application of Kinesio Tape has been used to improve athletic performance. The aim of this study was to analyze the acute effects of Kinesio Tape on the vertical jump performance. Methodology: The sample consisted in 12 participants (7 women and 5 men), with ages between 18 and 35 years. All the participants were assessed in two sessions for the application of the control and experimental procedures in a random order. The Ergojump®was used for the evaluation of the jump performance. Results: A significant decrease of the performance was found after the control procedure but not after the Kinesio Tape application. Conclusion: The Kinesio Tape did not improve the vertical jump performance, but seems to indicate protective effects in the decrease of the jump performance.

Full textThis doctorate thesis is based on a two-year-long participant observation within “La Kuizine”, a social center squat in East Paris that was opened by Marxist and/or Anarchist activists. This piece presents itself as a contribution to the study of the renewal of critical enterprises and protest practices and offers empirical work that can aid in the understanding of public spaces today. A large portion is dedicated to ethnographic material in this thesis – the work here adopts a perspective that borrows both from the interactionist tradition of the third school of Chicago and from the sociology of Pierre Bourdieu in order to reveal the mechanisms of domination (re)produced within “La Kuizine” and the forms of “lateral possible” that are experimented within this space. Indeed, the activist group responsible for founding this squat had as its main goal to make it a space of “class solidarity” by organizing various workshops (including a sliding scale donation daily meal) for workers and inhabitant of the neighborhood. The modus operandi of the space is self-management and collective decision making. The social and communicational analysis of this space is at the crossroads between several fields of research: political science, sociology, anthropology and communication studies. Thus, this doctorate thesis studies various objects in a cross-disciplinary manner: the social construction of radical commitment, the relations to the political and media fields of a micro-protest-space, the processes of political socialization as well as the conditions for the possibility of a critique of the social order

Full textBack squats (BSQ) have been shown to effectively potentiate lower body power in a subsequent performance activity. There is a plurality of post activation potentiation (PAP) studies in which the BSQ and vertical jump (VJ) are used. To date, there is little information regarding BSQ and horizontal jump (HJ) performance. Nine collegiate ice hockey players from the California State University, Long Beach ice hockey team volunteered for the study. Participants performed five testing sessions separated by 96 hours. The first testing session was a one repetition maximum (1RM) BSQ to assign the athletes specific intensity. The intensity chosen was 87% of the athletes’ 1RM, which means they should complete five repetitions (87%) for the potentiated testing sessions. The four testing sessions were randomized consisting of a back squat followed by horizontal jump (BSQ-HJ), back squat followed by vertical jump (BSQ-VJ), horizontal jump only (CT-HJ) and vertical jump only (CT-VJ). During the potentiated conditions participants had a rest interval of 5 minutes between the BSQ and VJ or HJ. Alpha-level was set a priori at 0.05. The results indicate that both vertical (p = 0.017) and horizontal (p = 0.003) jump were significantly increased (VJ = +5.51cm, HJ = +11.55cm). The present study helps indicate that muscular power performance can be improved in VJ and HJ using the PAP training phenomenon in collegiate ice hockey players.
