Reconstruction of the human gastrocnemius force-length curve in vivo: part 2-experimental results.

abstract：:The goal of this research was to analyze the effects of fatigue on the shock waves generated by foot strike. Twenty-two subjects were instrumented with an externally attached, lightweight accelerometer placed over the tibial tuberosity. The subjects ran on a treadmill for 30 min at a speed near their anaerobic thresho...
