TL;DR: Patellar tendinopathy is associated with a decrease in the mechanical and material properties of the tendon in elite athletes subjected to a high volume of jumping activity, however, compared with their healthy counterparts, tendinopathic volleyball players have a better ability to utilise the stretch-shortening cycle when jumping.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that tendon adaptations from years of heavy resistance training are different in AAS users, suggesting differences in collagen remodeling, which could be linked to a higher risk of tendon injury.

TL;DR: Eleven elite female handball players performed two weekly sprint training sessions over eight weeks in addition to their regular handball practice to evaluate whether an individualised sprint-training program was more effective in improving sprint performance in elite team-sport players compared to a generalised sprint -training program.

TL;DR: MSPT was time-efficient and equally or more effective than FSPT training in improving vertical jumping and sprinting performance and OWL was generally ineffective and inferior to the two other interventions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the test-retest reliability and agreement across methods for assessing individual force-velocity (FV) profiles of the lower limbs in athletes using a multicenter approach.
