TL;DR: A substantial proportion of healthy active individuals without any symptoms of back pain displayed bone marrow oedema lesions on MRI at baseline, however, MRI lesions did not increase significantly after 6 weeks of intensive physical training.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of ankle muscle strength and flexibility on dolphin kick performance in competitive swimmers
TL;DR: The results suggest that dolphin kick velocity might be enhanced by ankle muscle strength exercises and that subjects with a restricted ankle flexibility might profit from a flexibility program.
Journal ArticleDOI
