Anthropometric and physical fitness data can predict sport-specific performance (e.g., canoe sprint race time) in young athletes. Of note, inter-item correlations (i.e., multicollinearity) may exist between tests assessing similar qualities. However, multicollinearity among change across age and/or sex due to age-/sex-specific non-linear development of test performances. Therefore, the present study aimed at analyzing anthropometric, fitness, as a function athletes.Anthropometric, 618 male...

Introduction Stiffness and length are well-established tendon parameters in sports medicine. Myotonometry ultrasound imaging the commonly used methods to quantify these parameters. However, further studies needed clarify reliability of methods, especially when assessing maximally loaded tendons conducted by different experienced investigators. This study aimed determine intra- interrater reliabilities measuring stiffness patellar (PT) Achilles (AT) using myotonometry method extended...
