Relationship between joint torque and muscle fascicle shortening at various joint angles and intensities in the plantar flexors
Abstract Because it is difficult to measure tendon length changes directly in humans, tendon length changes during dynamic movement have been evaluated indirectly from changes in muscle fascicle length and joint angle. The purpose of this study was to examine the validity of the indirect method. Twi...
