It's hammer #biomechanics time! The tracking is not quite there yet, and it took us longer than expected to get to this point, but thanks to our amazing grad student Emma Patterson for her perseverance. We're super excited. Happy Friday!

Had a successful first oral presentation at @isbs_conference this year! Looked at how distribution of trunk/leg lean mass could influence performance during the snatch. Read it here: https://t.co/Lrg6QQNTVu @ISBSOFFICIAL @MUGradSchool

Had my Reddit debut this weekend!! 💀😅 Luckily it wasn’t under incredibly embarrassing circumstances. Got to teach the r/weightlifting subreddit a bit about #biomechanics and had to plug what we were doing at Marquette with USAW!

We packed up cameras and force plates and drove to Pittsburgh for @USWeightlifting Nationals. Emma and @WandaSihanath even put together a poster & QR code with cool #weightlifting #biomechanics stuff. Anyone in Pittsburgh who wants to talk shop let me know, I'll buy coffee!

Slowly but surely churning our way through all the throws data from the @WorldAthletics Invitational meet in Ramona, OK. Looking forward to digging into some javelin #biomechanics next. Thanks for your patience @karathrowsjav, and understanding that the discus WR came first😅

First look at the #biomechanics of Mykolas Alekna's new @WorldAthletics discus record. Still tinkering with the report & analyses, so any feedback is appreciated. I hope you enjoy ... @ThrowersUni @beau_throws @THROWSCOACHES @MTCthrowers @hmmrmedia @USATrack @CalTFXC @pjvazel

Side-by-side comparison of Mykolas Alekna's and Yaime Perez's best throws at the @WorldAthletics Invitational in Ramona, OK. Any thoughts on technical differences or #biomechanics? @ThrowersUni @beau_throws @GarageStrength @MTCthrowers @hmmrmedia @USATrack @theiamarkerless

While it's been exciting to dig into the #biomechanics of the new @WorldAthletics men's discus record, we're equally excited to analyze Yaime Perez's 73.09 m bomb, which was the best female throw since 1989! Thanks @WandaSihanath @cfgeiser @theiamarkerless @DaneChamps

Part II of our #biomechanics project with @DaneChamps and Yaime Perez from last weekend in Ramona, OK where we looked at foot forces during actual discus throws with @novel_USA insoles. @GarageStrength @ThrowsU @pjvazel @hmmrmedia

Can't go to an international throws competition without doing some CMJ #biomechanics testing. We worked with @DaneChamps to collect force-time data (via @novel_USA) on the current world leader in the women's discus throw Yaime Perez. Data from actual throws are "on deck" ...

The @MarquetteU Biomechanics Lab was in Ramona, OK this weekend to record video at the World Athletics Invitational. It was an amazing experience with several world, area, and national records being broken. Thanks to all who helped - now off to the lab and geek out😀

And that’s a wrap for NAO Finals in Wilmington with 19 sessions and ~1800 lifts. Thanks to everyone from @USWeightlifting (esp. Anna Swischer) for the amazing help and hospitality, and @WandaSihanath and Emma for bringing the vibes each day. Let the data processing begin …

When @MUSportScience says to take advantage of social networking through social media, you take advantage — even if we’re the most awkward people around 🙃 Had fun dropping in to see @mgattone1 and talk biomechanics in weightlifting. @USWeightlifting
