Background Middle-and long-distance running performance is constrained by several
important aerobic and anaerobic parameters. The efficacy of strength training (ST) for …

Running economy (RE) represents a complex interplay of physiological and biomechanical
factors that is typically defined as the energy demand for a given velocity of submaximal …

Recently, there has been a proliferation of published articles on the effect of plyometric jump
training, including several review articles and meta-analyses. However, these types of …

Balsalobre-Fernández, C, Santos-Concejero, J, and Grivas, GV. Effects of strength training
on running economy in highly trained runners: a systematic review with meta-analysis of …

Background Several strategies have been used to improve running economy (RE). Defined
as the oxygen uptake required at a given submaximal running velocity, it has been …

Downhill running (DR) is a whole-body exercise model that is used to investigate the
physiological consequences of eccentric muscle actions and/or exercise-induced muscle …

Background The aim of this study is to conduct a systematic review with meta-analysis to
explore the effects of plyometric jump training (PJT) on the physical fitness of individual sport …

Abstract Li, F, Newton, RU, Shi, Y, Sutton, D, and Ding, H. Correlation of eccentric strength,
reactive strength, and leg stiffness with running economy in well-trained distance runners. J …

Background Concurrent strength and endurance (CSE) training improves distance running
performance more than endurance training alone, but the mechanisms underpinning this …

Objectives Studies comparing multiple groups (ie, experimental and control) often examine
the efficacy of an intervention by calculating within group effect sizes using Cohen's d. This …
