Acute Effects of Midsole Bending Stiffness on Lower Extremity Biomechanics during Layup Jumps

Acute Effects of Midsole Bending Stiffness on Lower Extremity Biomechanics during Layup Jumps

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the acute effects of shoe midsole stiffness on the joint biomechanics of the lower extremities during specific basketball movements. Methods: Thirty participants wearing stiff midsole shoes (SS) and control shoes (CS) performed layup jumps (LJs) while the kine...
