Although symmetry of A chilles tendon (AT) properties between legs is commonly assumed
in research and clinical settings, different loading profiles of both legs in daily life (ie, foot …

This study aimed to determine the within-subject variability of GPS-derived metabolic power
data in elite soccer players across several pre-season matches and compare the variability …

We have shown that a common C to T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP rs12722 or
BstUI RFLP) within the COL5A1 gene 3'-untranslated region (UTR)(Fig. 1) is associated with …

The return of tendon strain energy is thought to contribute to reducing the energy cost of
running (Erun). However, this may not be consistent with the notion that increased Achilles …

Purpose The major aim of this study was to compare ultrasound (US) and magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) measurements of the Achilles tendon cross-sectional area (CSA) …

We aimed to (1) compare pain, tendon structure, lower limb function, and Achilles tendon
loads while running between limbs in runners with Achilles tendinopathy, and (2) explore …

Introduction: Low-load resistance training with blood flow restriction (LL-BFR) has emerged
as a viable alternative to conventional high-load (HL) resistance training regimens. Despite …

Achilles tendon stiffness determines calf muscle functioning during functional activities.
However, contrasting evidence was found in studies comparing Achilles tendon stiffness in …

The A chilles tendon moment arm (MA _ AT) and foot lever ratio (FLR) can play important
roles for force production and movement economy during locomotion. This notion has …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of intermittent sprint training
and plyometric training on endurance running performance. Methods Fourteen moderately …
