چکیده

INTRODUCTION There have been few biomechanical studies that tried to investigate individual variations of human musculoskeletal parameters, e.g., moment of inertia or ratio of fascicle-tendon structure length. Additionally, many synergist muscles that have different moment arm one by one have often been analyzed as a single muscle. However, we need to pay more attention to musculoskeletal differences among individuals, which have a possibility to result in different characteristics of force generation and moment-joint angle relationship. The purpose of this study was to investigate how individual variations of architecture of hamstrings muscle tendon complex, which are agonists of knee flexion, influence moment-joint angle relationship.
