Test-Retest Reliability of Variables Collected During Different Countermovement Jump Types
At the 2023 South Central American Society of Biomechanics in Fort Worth, TX, Anton Simms presented his findings that reliability of dependent variables is different when performing CMJs with versus without arm swing!

Force Output and Muscle Activation Differences during Deadlifts Using a Closed Group versus a Hook Grip.
At the 2023 Undergraduate Research Conference through Texas Tech's Center for the Integration of STEM Education & Research, Brady McLain demonstrated the ways force output and muscle activation differ between closed-grip and hook-grip style deadlift exercise.

Comparison of Landing Variables Between Countermovement Jump Landings and Drop Vertical Jump Landings From Equal Heights
At the 2023 South Central American Society of Biomechanics in Fort Worth, TX, Mia Hite told the world that impact demands during landing are not the same between reactive land-to-jump actions during the CMJ and drop jump, even when height is controlled!
