Landing-Takeoff Asymmetries Applied to Running Mechanics: A New Perspective for Performance

Background:Elastic bouncing is a physio-mechanical model that can elucidate running behavior in different situations, including landing and takeoff patterns and the characteristics of the muscle-tendon units during stretch and recoil in running. An increase in running speed improves the body’s elast...
