Kinematics and joints moments profile during straight arm press to handstand in male gymnasts.

Biomechanical features of the handstand, one of the most fundamental skills required for artistic gymnastics events, have not been well documented. The purpose of this study was to clarify the kinematics and joint moment profiles during straight arm press to handstand in different highly skilled mal...
