Fluctuations in muscle strength, shooting accuracy and serum hormone concentrations in conscripts during a 3-week combat training period
2015
Conscripts and soldiers have to perform their duties in a multistressor environment. During prolonged periods of combat training, fluctuations in strength levels and hormone concentrations have been noted. However, there is limited information regarding the changes in shooting performance and whether changes in strength and hormonal concentrations are correlated with it. This study examined strength levels, shooting performance and hormonal fluctuations during a 3-week combat training period. Possible correlations between the variables were examined and investigated. This study lasted for 37 days and involved 49 Finnish male conscripts as subjects. The subjects acted as their own controls d…
Technical determinants of competitive rifle shooting performance
2018
The purpose of this thesis was to identify technical determinants of elite level air rifle and biathlon standing shooting performance and investigate how these technical determinants are affected by training, competition situation, or intense exercise. Forty international and national level air rifle shooters and 17 biathletes participated in the studies. In air rifle shooting, shooting performance, aiming point trajectory, and postural balance were measured from each shot in a simulated competition series in the training situation and in the actual competition situation. The shooters’ competition results were collected from each measured season. In biathlon, the same shooting technical var…

Urheilu voidaan nähdä julkisuudessa ihmiskehon voimankoetuksina, saavutuksina, menestysmahdollisuuksina, spketaakkelinomaisena viihteenä, voiton ja häviön taisteluna, jännitysnäytelmänä ja kasvattavana voimana. Urheilun julkisuuskuva rakentuu tulostiedotuksien, viihteen, markkinoiden, sponsorien ja draaman käsikirjoitukseen. Tarkastelen pro gradu -tutkielmassani ampumaurheilun uutisointia ja ampumaurheilija Satu Mäkelä-Nummelan julkisuuskuvaa Helsingin Sanomissa ja Etelä-Suomen Sanomissa Pekingin 2008 ja Lontoon 2012 olympialaisten aikana. Satu Mäkelä-Nummela voitti Pekingissä 2008 olympiakultaa ja piti Lontoon olympialaisiin 2012 asti ainoana suomalaisurheilijana hallussaan maailmanennätys…
