The anthropometric differences among starting and non-starting players in Gaelic soccer may be related to the differing demands of match play. A recent study of one elite team in Australia found positional differences in the sum of seven skinfolds. The researchers did not find significant differences between the non-starters and starters, suggesting that further research is needed to better understand positional differences in elite Gaelic soccer.

More-Vulnerable Locations: Along the side of the rib cage. This nerve is particularly vulnerable due to extreme flexion (arms tie overhead, for example). More-Vulnerable Locations: As it runs across the outside and front of the hip and along the crease of the leg and hip. (Note that this positioning is similar to the ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric nerves.)

Step by step

Throughout this course, we will try to provide specific recommendations, exercises, and tips to help tops “tie well,” to help bottoms recognize when something is or isn’t being tied well, and to help both communicate effectively. However, the following general guidelines relate directly to mitigating risk of nerve injury: Legend: Red = Radial Nerve | Blue = Median Nerve | Green = Ulnar Nerve General Nerve Paths in “Arms Behind” Position Direct mechanical stress on the nerves: meaning that the rope is on or very near to the nerve, and the pressure of the rope causes stress or compression to the nerve, resulting in injury More-Vulnerable Locations: Most vulnerable as it moves through the wrist and as it exits the brachial plexus under the arms. Note: you don’t have to use Munter Hitches, simple twists of rope around the wraps will do, but it is more secure, and doesn’t it look freaking awesome if you use hitches instead?)

In general, the more severe and/or longer lasting the symptoms, the more immediately you should seek professional help. Rest the area in the first few days of injury. (This may involve using a splint, depending on location and severity.)In emergencies, a limb can be without circulation up to 2 hours without negative long-term effects and between 30 to 45 minutes with no changes to the muscles at all; however, the general rule of thumb for first-aid tourniquets is 1 hour for upper-extremities and 2 hours for lower-extremities. (However, note that individuals with pre-existing circulation issues — such as Raynaud’s syndrome, peripheral vascular disease, diabetes, etc. — are at greater risk.) 3 Reference 1– Reference 2– Reference 3 It’s also worth noting here that repetitive injury, to one degree or another, seems to be fairly common among experienced rope bottoms. This means that the nerve (and usually the same nerve or group of nerves, typically related to the same tie and similar placement) is stressed incrementally over many different rope sessions — none of which are severe enough to cause noticeable injury individually. However, over time, those micro-injuries can add up until a particular rope session causes the injury to become apparent. Start with a single column tie around the ankle (refer to this post if you don’t know how to do that tie).

Results of Compression: Loss of sensation in the pinky and ring finger; inability to turn/twist the hand in the direction of the pinky. Results of Compression: Decreased sensation, numbness, tingling, or a burning sensation in the region of the groin could indicate compression of the ilioinguinal or iliohypogastric nerves. Both sides will be keen to win this two-legged tie, but it can also be a difficult match to predict. Despite this, there are a few things to look for in the two matches. First of all, you will have to know the opponents. This will give you an idea of the teams’ strengths and weaknesses. Decreased sensation, numbness, tingling, or a burning sensationin a given area of the hand can indicate possible nerve compression or damage to the corresponding nerve somewhere along the arm (see the diagram below).

Results of Compression: Decreased sensation, numbness, tingling, or a burning sensation along the top of the foot, or the inability to flex the toes up towards the shin, could indicate compression to the peroneal nerve. In addition, the inability to move the hand in particular ways can indicate a problem with a specific nerve as well:

When ties are tied at the end of 90 minutes, extra time is played. If both teams cannot score in the extra time, they will have penalty shootouts. If the teams are still tied after the extra time, the match will go to sudden death. Once the ties have been settled, the winners will be the team with the most goals after extra time. I can’t actually think of any, off the top of my head. It’s a reasonably safe tie, because all the major blood vessels and vulnerable bits are on the insides of the legs, away from the rope. Rope Placement: Ropes that bind tightly around the upper thigh may cause compression. This seems to be highly variable in both location and sensitivity. This is typically the nerve that causes people to have specific preferences about how high or low into the groin area they prefer upper-thigh rope (such as in a folded-leg tie). As soon as indicators are detected, remove compression as soon as possible (in a controlled manner). It is typically best to avoid moving the body in any way that could cause “shearing forces” in the problem area. For example, don’t attempt to transition or rotate the bottom in rope before attempting to remove the pressure of the rope. Everything regarding restricting legs. General restriction, forcing someone to kneel, connective tying, sexual bondage (because it provides good access), even suspension with some reinforcement on the bands and stems.

Area of Sensation Loss: Loss of sensation due to circulation tends to affect the entire limb or hand/foot. Loss of sensation due to nerve compression tends to affect only a portion of the hand or foot (see below). So here you go! This is very much my favourite kind of leg tie; you can use double column ties to do similar things, but personally I find this a lot more fun, and so do the people that I tie. The current commonly-accepted initial treatment for nerve compression injuries is listed below. However, note that there are some disagreements in the medical community. We recommend reading “ First aid for nerve damage” for a more complete understanding. Assess Severity of the Injury The major areas to consider in the leg are around the knee and ankle. Avoid tight rope around either location to minimize the chance of compression.
