As usual BIOMECH-L proves to be an incredible resource. The original
post is as follows:
A strange request to be sure:
Some time late last year, I remember reading an abstract relating to
trunk and pelvic rotation parameters (in the transverse plane) as they
relate to throwing performance. The concept is similar to the so called
“X-factor” (1) that golfers discuss.
I am however unable for the life of me to find the reference or where I
saw it. I certainly would appreciate any help in this regard, and if I
find it, of course I will make it available to the group.
Thanks in advance,
Rod Whiteley, PhD Candidate, University of Sydney

I should’ve pointed out that I was aware of Stodden et al’s1 elegant
work, as several correspondents including (embarrassingly) Mr Dave
Stodden, and Mr Stephen Lyman pointed me in the direction of their 2001
paper in J Appl Biomech. This paper is of course required reading for
anyone vaguely interested in the area of kinematics of throwing.
Nitin Patel made me aware of a short note by Scott Nadler2 which wasn’t
really what I was after. Ms Michelle Sabick pointed me to a paper
presented at Calgary in 20023 which I’d not previously seen, but will
endeavour to read as soon as I can get my hands on it.
And finally, Mr Arnel Aguinaldo gave me a link to the paper I had seen
that evening: HYPERLINK

It would appear to be unpublished (or at least I can’t find it via
either of MEDLINE or CINAHL) so I’ll try to chase him for more
information.
For the life of me though, I still can’t think how it was that I
happened to be browsing this page….
Thanks again to all those who helped,
Rod Whiteley.
