Sex differences in triple extensor rate of torque development may explain variance in vertical jump performance

Creator:

Wile, Dylan

Abstract:

Background: While males generally outperform females in athletic tasks, the underlying mechanisms for this difference remain unclear. Explosive neuromuscular performance of the triple extensors, often investigated via rate of torque development (RTD), is crucial for athletic tasks such as a vertical jump. Purpose: To assess sex differences in rapid torque...
