Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

In this study, three-dimensional biomechanics , by means of lower limb joint angles and moments (opto-electronic system with synchronised force plate), of landing tasks (anticipated, unanticipated and cognitive dual task) before and after a mental fatigue protocol will be compared in a population of basketball, handball and volleyball players.

Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/Treatment
Healthy basketball, volleyball and handball players Healthy basketball, volleyball and handball players	Other: 3D analysis of landing task; Landing tasks (anticipated, unanticipated and cognitive dual task) are investigated with 3D analysis by using an opto-electronic system

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

1. Joint angles lower extremity [The same day/test moment, immediately after fatiguing exercises]

   Joint angles will be extracted with an opto-electronic system and synchronised force plate

2. Joint moments lower extremity [The same day/test moment, immediately after fatiguing exercises]

   Joint moments will be extracted with an opto-electronic system and synchronised force plate
