16. Towards evidence-based classification in para-cycling
Sammanfattning : The aim of classification in Paralympic sport is to minimize the impact of impairment on the outcome of competition. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the impact of different types of impairments on para-cycling performance to develop an evidence-based classification system in the para-cycling C (bicycling) and T (tricycling) divisions.

17. Performance determinants and classification in paracanoe
Sammanfattning : Valid classification systems are vital for Paralympic sports in order to minimise the impact of impairment on sports performance. To achieve valid classification, each Paralympic sport must develop evidence-based classification systems by examining the impact of impairment on key performance determinants. LÄS MER
18. Athletic Sprint Start Biomechanics : Investigations into the relationships between three dimensional starting technique, first step width and performance
Sammanfattning : The block and early acceleration phase plays a very important role in the overall outcome of athletic sprint events. During this part of the race it is commonly observed that sprinters use a lower-body technique that involves the swing leg crossing medially in front of the athlete followed by wide steps. LÄS MER
19. Effects of exercise and amino acid intake on mechanisms regulating protein synthesis and breakdown in human muscle
Sammanfattning : Skeletal muscle adapts differently to specific modes of exercise, where resistance training results in muscle growth and endurance training induces mitochondrial biogenesis. These are results of molecular events that occur after each exercise session, increasing the expression of specific genes and the rate of both synthesis and breakdown of protein. LÄS MER
20. Sport in youth detention : A “pedagogical” practice?
Sammanfattning : Sport can be an important part of life inside youth detention, often believed to contribute to the rehabilitation of youth. However, there has been little ethnographic research examining this phenomenon. LÄS MER
