Abstract Van Hooren, B and Zolotarjova, J. The difference between countermovement and
squat jump performances: a review of underlying mechanisms with practical applications. J …

Introduction Balance is a multifactorial construct with high relevance in, eg, everyday life
activities. Apart from sensorimotor control, muscle strength and size are positively linked with …

Motor responses evoked by stimulating the spinal cord percutaneously between the T11 and
T12 spinous processes were studied in eight human subjects during walking and running …

In the present report, we investigated changes in corticomotor excitability associated with
unilateral knee dysfunction secondary to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Ten …

Rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most serious sports-related
injuries and requires long recovery time. The quadriceps and hamstring muscles are …

Multivariable dynamic ankle mechanical impedance in two coupled degrees-of-freedom
(DOFs) was quantified when muscles were active. Measurements were performed at five …

Objective: An improved understanding of mechanical impedance modulation in human
joints would provide insights about the neuromechanics underlying functional movements …

The present study investigated the regulation of leg and joint stiffness in hop** at different
intensity levels. Eight male subjects performed bilateral hop** at various intensity levels …

The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of WBV on stretch reflexes involved in knee
joint control. We evoked stretch reflexes of the hamstring muscles by inducing an anterior …

The objective of this study was to investigate the gender-specific differences in peak torque
(PT), muscle stiffness (MS) and musculoarticular stiffness (MAS) of the knee joints in a young …
