Form skipping has been used to help injured athletes progress to running.
Because little research has been done on form-skipping mechanics, its justifi cation
as a progression to running exercises is unclear. Objective: To compare groundreaction
forces (GRF) during form skipping and running in healthy subjects at
clinically relevant speeds,...
Context: Static stretching is commonly used during the treatment and rehabilitation of orthopedic injuries to increase joint range of motion (ROM) and muscle flexibility. Understanding the physiological adaptations that occur in the neuromuscular system as a result of long-term stretching may provide insight into the mechanisms responsible for changes in...
