Biarticular gastrocnemii muscles increase their joint energy transfer potential at high running speeds

Royal Society Open Science
The involvement of energy transfer mechanisms between the ankle and the knee joint by the biarticular gastrocnemii muscles at high running speeds is currently unknown. During running at seven speeds (3.0–8.5 m s−1), the ankle and knee joint kinematics as
