Research Article: How the acceleration phase influences energy flow and the resulting joint moments of the throwing shoulder in the deceleration phase of the javelin throw

Date Published: 2024-09-27

Abstract:
Introduction: The throwing motion in the javelin throw applies high loads to the musculoskeletal system of the shoulder, both in the acceleration and deceleration phases. While the loads occurring during the acceleration phase and their relationship to kinematics and energy flow have been relatively well investigated, there is a lack of studies focusing the deceleration phase. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate how the throwing arm is brought to rest, which resultant joint torques are placed on the shoulder and how they are influenced by the kinematics of the acceleration phase.
