Traumatic brain injuries and older adults: The implications of neck strength, muscle activation, and range of motion
… TBIs in older adults may be related to neck musculature and function. Yet, these risk factors have received less scientific scrutiny in older adults. Thus, the current project quantified isometric neck strength, active and passive range of motion, and neck muscle activation latency in …

Concussion, neck, and hamstring injury aetiology and injury prevention in Rugby Union
… frequently diagnosed injuries in Rugby Union. Neck and hamstring strength have been identified as a modifiable risk factor to decrease the severity and incidence of these injuries. As such, there is an increasing interest in strengthening the neck and hamstrings in Rugby Union for injury …

Head acceleration across youth, high school, and collegiate soccer players
… a soccer ball over a career of soccer. Greater neck girth, head-neck segment mass, and neck strength predicted lower peak linear and rotational acceleration and may have contributed to the observed gender differences. On average, soccer players presented with higher sway velocity post-heading …

An investigation into mild traumatic brain injury identification, management, and mitigation
… to reduce concussion incidence. For example, neck strengthening techniques to mitigate against collision impacts. There is, no longitudinal evidence to suggest that neck strength can reduce the impacts of concussion in adult populations . Additionally, other factors such as lowering the tackle …
