Hi,

I'm a Personal trainer as well as a student at university. I will be doing a sports related topic for my dissertation. If anyone has completed a dissertation in Sports-psychology or sports in general I would appreciate it if you could tell me what the topic was and the method briefly. I have come up with many different topic areas such as: Steriods and drugs within sport, Stretching whether it is beneficial, exercise addiction, stimulus-response theory in sport, Injuries within professional footballers/athletes. There are so many areas of sports that are of a great interest to me however, finding an ethical and practical method of carrying out the research is what seems to be difficult. If you have any ideas that interest you within the sports field or have a topic that needs further research please do not hesitate to contact me.

Hi Milka, I posted your question to our Facebook groups.

This answer is from Nick on Facebook, 'The possible negative impact of successful training that leads to prolonged stagnation.'

Hi mate,
in my 2nd year i did a study on the effect of stretching the quads and hams on leg power. It was pretty easy to test and used different methods of stretching to compare, e.g static, dynamic, ballistic PNF... etc my advice is make testing easier for yourself. Remember your doing a dissertation and not a groundbreaking piece of research so dont make it difficult for yourself.

SPWoods - I was thinking of doing something similar for my disseration. It looks relatively simple to test and assess. I was contemplating on looking at the effect of a 6 week plyometric training session on agility - but to test that is quite hard. Just wondering if there is any chance that you could send me your list of references for your discussion or even a look at your work, it would be hugely helpful. Thanks man
