Relationship between the Young’s Modulus of the Achilles Tendon and Ankle Dorsiflexion Angle at Maximum Squat Depth in Healthy Young Males

Relationship between the Young’s Modulus of the Achilles Tendon and Ankle Dorsiflexion Angle at Maximum Squat Depth in Healthy Young Males

<i>Background and Objective</i>: Achilles tendon (AT) stiffness can reduce ankle dorsiflexion. However, whether AT stiffness affects the ankle dorsiflexion angle at a maximum squat depth remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the relationship between the Young’s modulus of t...
