All the latest resources for mitigating injury risk
From Screening to Performance: How KangaTech Supports Player Availability
We’re excited to announce an upcoming webinar, releasing this July, featuring Niklas Klasen, Head Strength & Conditioning Coach at Arminia Bielefeld.
Now entering his fifth season with Arminia Bielefeld, Niklas Klasen focuses on maximising player availability and enhancing performance through screening, monitoring, and individualised training. In this session, he’ll share how KangaTech’s KT360 system plays a central role in his high-performance approach.
Niklas will be joined by Dirk Mund, a physiotherapist with over 25 years of experience. Dirk has worked with the German national triathlon team for 15 years and was part of the 2008 Beijing Olympics, a highlight of his distinguished career.
Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights from two leading professionals in elite sport and physiotherapy.
The Ultimate Guide on Rate of Force Development
Measures of Rate of Force Development (RFD) are used to provide an indication of how rapidly a muscle or group of muscles can develop force. These measures are generally utilised to provide an indication of the explosive strength of an athlete. More recently they have been used in the medical setting to assess and profile patients in the medical setting.
A Comprehensive Guide to Preseason Screening in Elite Football
This invaluable resource is designed to help you identify potential risk factors for injuries in football athletes during the preseason. By collecting data and analysing deficiencies and asymmetries, you can target these areas with specialised conditioning programs to mitigate the risk and enhance performance.
Improving Care for Better Athlete Outcomes
While monitoring processes have been shown to mitigate injury risk by identifying and improving communication around potential risk factors before pain or injury occurs, decisions around how and what to monitor in any population can be complex, require a collaborative approach, and must consider established workflows.
KT360 Independent Validation
Victoria University undertook a validation study which assessed the relationship between the device measurements and a criterion (calibration masses). The validation protocol included testing of the device load cells at different masses (1-200 Kg), in two modalities of static force application (push and pull).
