| Summary: | <p>This thesis investigated an acute intervention with wearable resistance (WR) training</p><p>in badminton-specific typical footwork (left-forward (LF) backhand lunges and rightforward</p><p>(RF) forehand lunges), aiming to improve performance, minimize fatigue and</p><p>reduce injury risks. Eighteen male university level badminton athletes participated in</p><p>this project. Kinematics and kinetics were measured during LF and RF with the WR on</p><p>the lower limb. Different WR loading were recorded with unload (0%), and with</p><p>loading equivalent to 3%, 6% and 10% of body mass (BM) while performing typical</p><p>badminton footwork. A larger hip range of motion (ROM) in the sagittal plane while</p><p>smaller frontal ROM during RF compared with LF. Knee showed smaller frontal and</p><p>horizontal ROM during LF compared with RF. Ankle had larger dorsiflexion and ROM</p><p>during RF than LF with moderate WR loadings. Ankle frontal ROM during RF were</p><p>smaller than LF. Hip showed smaller flexion and internal rotation moments but larger</p><p>adduction moments during RF compared with LF. RF had larger abduction smaller</p><p>internal rotation and larger external rotation moments in the knee. Smaller dorsiflexion</p><p>and plantarflexion moments, inversion and eversion moments was found compared</p><p>with LF. Under incremental WR loadings, difference was found, indicating different</p><p>strategies responding the increased WR, suggesting the program of WR training</p><p>intervention should be tasks-based. LF rely on hip to facilitate movements, whereas RF</p><p>rely on knee and ankle joint to generate power. LF may exert more loading to knee,</p><p>thus a slow and gradual increment of WR load should be considered to prevent over</p><p>loading injuries. Findings may assist the development of badminton-specific</p><p>movements training program, particularly on badminton court to mimic real-match</p><p>scenarios, to enhance movement-specific fitness level and reduce motor fatigue, thus</p><p>improving the on-court performance and minimizing potential injury risks.</p> |
