Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on how augmented feedback training can help reduce vertical ground reaction forces (vGRF) in female athletes landing from a height, ultimately aiming to prevent ACL tears.
- A total of 147 participants were tested under different conditions, leading to the identification of four response groups, with most athletes showing improvement from training.
- Findings highlight that both initial vGRF levels and the athletes' responses to training are crucial in predicting how well they can benefit from augmented feedback.
Background And Purpose: Load asymmetry can be present before and after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), which may affect progress during knee rehabilitation in an outpatient sports medicine setting. Current rehabilitation primarily focuses on strength, pain, and range of motion deficits; however, recent evidence suggests the use of movement retraining strategies such as load feedback to address load asymmetry. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine how a single session of concurrent force feedback influences load symmetry during the leg-press and body-weight squat exercises in individuals following TKA.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare inter-limb asymmetry in dynamic balance and hop performance in athletes with and without a history of concomitant meniscal injury.
