dc.description.abstractElite alpine ski racing comprises bidirectional turning with forceful concentric but predominantly eccentric contractions that create large quadriceps muscle loading and hamstrings/quadriceps muscle co-contraction (4, 10). Ski racing also occurs in an unpredictable environment where skiers are at an increased risk for lower body injury, especially to the knee joint and the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) (2, 3, 8, 15). Unlike field sports, there are no sex-differences in ACL injury rates due to the preclusion of sex-related risk factors resulting from the large forces and unique mechanisms of ACL injury (8, 15).en_US

The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern Alberta, both acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (Districts 5 and 6).

The University of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda, and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina. On this land and in this place we strive to learn together, walk together, and grow together “in a good way.”
