Changes in internal mechanical cost during overground running to exhaustion

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted to determine during an overground supra-threshold run, whether a change in the internal mechanical cost could occur during an exhaustive run and whether this change is related to the increase in the energy cost of running. It is concluded that during overground running to exhaustion, a significant increase in internal mechanical costs occurred.

Passive force, angle, and stiffness changes after stretching of hamstring muscles

Article Abstract:

The influence of a six-week hamstring-stretching program on knee extension range of motion, passive resistive forces, and muscle stiffness is investigated. The finding of increased stiffness in the new range of motion, gained as a result of the stretching program, provides evidence that structural changes had occurred in the stretched muscles.
