Last week I had the incredible opportunity to present my original research at the 2026 International Society of Biomechanics in Sports Conference. Was wonderful to be there and catch up with other amazing researchers! #weightliftingbiomechanics #weightliftingresearch – at Loughborough, England

Was discussing fun research titles with a colleague and was reminded of this gem. Anyone else come across exciting titles?
Please take a moment to appreciate this absolutely legendary title. Never thought my love of movies and googling of statistics would ever collide in such a beautiful fashion. #indianajones #correlationcoefficients #statistics #phdresearch #phdstudent

In 2019 I sat down with these 4 fellas and discussed my research ideas for a PhD. Thankfully they all agreed and guided me through the journey to become Dr Ange. This was the first time we've all been in the same room together since that fateful conversation. #phd #biomechanics – at London, England

Was great to collaborate on another paper! Pay attention to the performance of that first pull!
Really pleased to have this published in @NSCASCJonline reviewing the evidence emphasizing the importance of maximal force capabilities in the first pull. Big thanks to my coauthors @shy_2tweet @PaulComfort1975 @angesorensen #weightlifting

📄 More great work from @Jiaqing_Xu96, this time looking at inter-limb asymmetry from the CMJ, CMRJ and DJ tests. 💡 Directionality much better in these (bilateral) assessments than our previous work, unilaterally. 🔓 Open access here: mdpi.com/2073-8994/15/10/196….
