These results are also relevant as hip adduction strength is a modifiable risk factor for groin injuries and pain. 📊We hope this gives objective data to inform monitoring strategies and microcycle planning. What are your thoughts on groin strength monitoring in your environment and have you noticed similar patterns with your players? Looking forward to hearing your experiences! 👇

🎉 I'm happy to share that the second study of my PhD has been published! 🧵

"Do fast players stay fast & slow players stay slow." It's one of the most common assumptions in youth sport. A recent study tracked 475 players from U12 to U19 over 8 years to test it. The answer is more complicated than you might think. 🧵

Those who believe in “psychological pain”, “brain pain”, “conditioned pain”, “pain without nociception” etc., are not realizing that their main premises are based on the appeal to ignorance fallacy. Or in other words - “abscence of evidence is not evidence of abscence”. Just because we cannot identify sources of nociception doesn’t mean they are not there and that the pain is “psychological”. Another implicit assumption they make is to assume that our imaging modalities are finite and are capable of capturing all possible nociceptive states which is far from true.

"How is your thesis going?”–Ph.D. students’ perspectives on mental health and stress in academia - 1 in 3 students above depression/anxiety thresholds - Self-doubt + job insecurity = biggest predictors of poor mental health - Bad supervision significantly worsens well-being - Part-time work while doing PhD = burnout risk The PhD mental health crisis isn't about weak students. It's about systemic problems: exploitative labor conditions, poor supervision, job insecurity, and institutional neglect. If you're struggling with your PhD, it's not your fault. These are predictable responses to broken systems.
