Agreement of markerless and marker-based joint kinetics in team sport-specific change-of-direction movements

Abstract Markerless (ML) motion capture is a practical alternative to marker-based (MB) systems, yet its ability to estimate joint kinetics during team sport-specific movements remains unclear. This study evaluated the agreement between ML and MB lower extremity joint moment esti...

Positive Joint Work Redistribution in Running: The Role of Plantar Flexor Fatigue and the Effect of Advanced Footwear Technology

Abstract Over the course of a near-maximal effort 10 km run, positive mechanical work decreases at the ankle and increases at the knee. Although plantar flexor fatigue is believed to be responsible for the proximal shift in mechanical work generation, this has yet to be confirmed...
