Myofascial force transmission between the calf and the dorsal thigh is dependent on knee angle: an ultrasound study

Abstract A recent in-vivo experiment has shown that force can be transmitted between the gastrocnemius and the hamstring muscles due to a direct tissue continuity. However, it remains unclear if this mechanical interaction is affected by the stiffness of the structural connection. This study therefo...
