Passive dorsiflexion stiffness is poorly correlated with passive dorsiflexion range of motion.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships among passive measures of weight-bearing dorsiflexion range of motion, non-weight-bearing dorsiflexion range of motion and dorsiflexion stiffness, thereby establishing whether they assess similar mechanical characteristics, as each measure has been implicated in injury risk during landings. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. ...
متن کاملThe effect of shoe insole stiffness on electromyography activity pattern of selected lower extremity muscles during running on treadmill
The purpose of this study was to determine the immediate effect of three types of shoe insoles, on electromyography activity of selected lower extremity muscles during running on treadmill. The electromyography activity of the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, biceps femoris, tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius lateralis muscles of 14 male athletes were recorded in non-insole,...
متن کاملthe comparsion of the activity pattern of lower limb muscles during single leg drop landing
background: single leg drop landing is one of the common sport activities that have greater likelihood of leading to traumatic oflower extremity. however, there is limited understanding of biomechanics of this maneuver. hence, this study aimed to compare the activities of lower limb muscles during pre- and post phases of single leg drop landing. methods: this semi-experimental research of 13 ph...
متن کاملInteraction of leg stiffness and surfaces stiffness during human hopping.
When mammals run, the overall musculoskeletal system behaves as a single linear "leg spring". We used force platform and kinematic measurements to determine whether leg spring stiffness (k(leg)) is adjusted to accommodate changes in surface stiffness (ksurf) when humans hoop in place, a good experimental model for examining adjustments to k(leg) in bouncing gaits. We found that k(leg) was great...
