I work in medical research and in medicine one important source of knowledge for good clinical practice are guidelines. Usually guidelines are made by some experts committee including and they usually say what treatment in what constellation one should do and what the evidence for this recommendation is. This is super helpful. Is there something similar in sport science for the execution of certain exercises?
MORE DETAILS
For example, some years ago I heard at the bouldering gym that hanging with completely straight arms leads to shoulder injuries. I did not question this information and always tried to keep my arms bent while bouldering. Some month ago I started to do the dead hang and I saw so many articles and videos stating that hanging with completely loose muscles and completely straight arms would be beneficial for shoulder health. So I started to do a completely passive dead hang with straight arms. But some days ago I read an article that this would be "the fastest way to kill your joints". There is a question about this issue here on PF but the answer refers to an article that contains no sources. So the question remains: Who is right? And how to find out?
There seems to be a wide range of contradicting information and it is often unclear what it is based on. There are Fitfluencer, Defluencer, Professionals (physiotherapy...) and so on, i. e. many different opinions and no certainty - but I can't find any widely accepted guidelines.
So what I am looking for is a source, maybe a database, that embraces recommended execution of certain exercises as it was formulated by an expert committee. I expect such guidelines to include scientific sources, an evaluation about the level of evidence for the recommendation and also that the guidelines are updated each few years. Is there something like this?
I understand that there are different kinds of sports. Actually I would await such guidelines for each kind of sport (in medicine each field has its own guidelines too). But personally I am most interested in bodyweight training and the proper form of execution.
