The influence of muscle morphology and strength characteristics on sprint running
performance, especially at elite level, is unclear. PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate …

Purpose: To elucidate the relationship between the muscularity of individual lower-limb
muscles and 100-m-race time (t 100) in young-adult male sprinters. Methods: Thirty-one …

Sprint runners achieve much higher gait velocities and accelerations than average humans,
due in part to large forces generated by their lower limb muscles. Various factors have been …

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether sprint performance is related to lower
leg musculoskeletal geometry within a homogeneous group of highly trained 100-m …
