Background Stress fractures are injuries caused by repetitive loading during activities such
as running. The application of advanced analytical methods such as machine learning to …

The aim of this study was first to determine if level, uphill, and downhill energy cost of
running (ECR) values were correlated at different slopes and for different running speeds …

The stress experienced by the tibia has contributions from the forces and moments acting on
the tibia. We sought to quantify the influence of running grade on internal tibial forces and …

The objective of this study was to determine whether the relationships between energy cost
of running (Cr) and running mechanics during downhill (DR), level (LR) and uphill (UR) …

Background Ground reaction forces (GRFs) are important for understanding human
movement, but their measurement is generally limited to a laboratory environment. Previous …

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the acute changes in the knee extensors maximum
voluntary isometric contraction force (MVIC), rate of force development (RFD), and rate of …

Purpose This study used downhill running as a model to investigate the repeated bout effect
(RBE) on neuromuscular performance, running biomechanics, and metabolic cost of …

The goal of this study was to investigate whole-body kinematic adaptations when running on
an unstable, irregular, and compliant surface in comparison to running on asphalt. We …

ABSTRACT A fatigue-failure process is hypothesized to govern the development of tibial
stress fractures, where bone damage is highly dependent on the peak strain magnitude. To …

The etiology of changes in lower‐limb neuromuscular function, especially to the central
nervous system, may be affected by exercise duration. Direct evidence is lacking as few …
