Patellar Tendon Adaptations to Downhill Running Training and Their Relationships With Changes in Mechanical Stress and Loading History.
Bontemps B, Gruet M, Louis J, Owens DJ, Miríc S, Vercruyssen F, Erskine RM. Bontemps B, et al. Among authors: erskine rm. J Strength Cond Res. 2024 Jan 1;38(1):21-29. doi: 10.1519/JSC.0000000000004617. J Strength Cond Res. 2024. PMID: 38085619
J Strength Cond Res 38(1): 21-29, 2024-It is unclear whether human tendon adapts to moderate-intensity, high-volume long-term eccentric exercise, e.g., downhill running (DR) training. This study aimed to investigate the time course of patellar tendon (PT) adaptation to sho …

Antrobus MR, Brazier J, Callus P, Herbert AJ, Stebbings GK, Day SH, Kilduff LP, Bennett MA, Erskine RM, Raleigh SM, Collins M, Pitsiladis YP, Heffernan SM, Williams AG. Antrobus MR, et al. Among authors: erskine rm. Clin J Sport Med. 2023 Sep 1;33(5):e145-e151. doi: 10.1097/JSM.0000000000001030. Epub 2022 Mar 29. Clin J Sport Med. 2023. PMID: 35350037
OBJECTIVE: Concussions are common match injuries in elite rugby, and reports exist of reduced cognitive function and long-term health consequences that can interrupt or end a playing career and produce continued ill health. ...

The time course of different neuromuscular adaptations to short-term downhill running training and their specific relationships with strength gains.
Bontemps B, Gruet M, Louis J, Owens DJ, Miríc S, Erskine RM, Vercruyssen F. Bontemps B, et al. Among authors: erskine rm. Eur J Appl Physiol. 2022 Apr;122(4):1071-1084. doi: 10.1007/s00421-022-04898-3. Epub 2022 Feb 18. Eur J Appl Physiol. 2022. PMID: 35182181 Free PMC article.
PURPOSE: Due to its eccentric nature, downhill running (DR) training has been suggested to promote strength gains through neuromuscular adaptations. However, it is unknown whether short-term chronic DR can elicit such adaptations. METHODS: Twelve untrained, young, healthy …

Genetic Factors That Could Affect Concussion Risk in Elite Rugby.
Antrobus MR, Brazier J, Stebbings GK, Day SH, Heffernan SM, Kilduff LP, Erskine RM, Williams AG. Antrobus MR, et al. Among authors: erskine rm. Sports (Basel). 2021 Jan 22;9(2):19. doi: 10.3390/sports9020019. Sports (Basel). 2021. PMID: 33499151 Free PMC article. Review.
Currently, concussions are the most commonly reported match injury during the tackle for both the ball carrier and the tackler (8-28 concussions per 1000 player match hours) and reports exist of reduced cognitive function and long-term health consequences that can end a pl …

Free-Weight Resistance Training in Youth Athletes: A Narrative Review.
McQuilliam SJ, Clark DR, Erskine RM, Brownlee TE. McQuilliam SJ, et al. Among authors: erskine rm. Sports Med. 2020 Sep;50(9):1567-1580. doi: 10.1007/s40279-020-01307-7. Sports Med. 2020. PMID: 32578028 Free PMC article. Review.
Generating high levels of muscular strength and power are important for success in sport and may have long-term implications for sporting careers in youth athletes. Importantly, maturation may confound the neuromuscular adaptations to resistance training when attempting to …

Task-specific neural adaptations to isoinertial resistance training.
Buckthorpe M, Erskine RM, Fletcher G, Folland JP. Buckthorpe M, et al. Among authors: erskine rm. Scand J Med Sci Sports. 2015 Oct;25(5):640-9. doi: 10.1111/sms.12292. Epub 2014 Jul 31. Scand J Med Sci Sports. 2015. PMID: 25077768
This study aimed to delineate the contribution of adaptations in agonist, antagonist, and stabilizer muscle activation to changes in isometric and isoinertial lifting strength after short-term isoinertial resistance training (RT). Following familiarization, 45 men (23.2 2. …

Training-induced changes in structural and mechanical properties of the patellar tendon are related to muscle hypertrophy but not to strength gains.
Seynnes OR, Erskine RM, Maganaris CN, Longo S, Simoneau EM, Grosset JF, Narici MV. Seynnes OR, et al. Among authors: erskine rm. J Appl Physiol (1985). 2009 Aug;107(2):523-30. doi: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00213.2009. Epub 2009 May 28. J Appl Physiol (1985). 2009. PMID: 19478195 Free article.
Unexpectedly, the increase in muscle PCSA was inversely related to the distal and the mean increases in tendon CSA (in both cases, r=-0.64; P<0.05). These data suggest that, following short-term resistance training, changes in tendon mechanical and material properties a …
