Greater Breast Support Is Associated With Reduced Oxygen Consumption and Greater Running Economy During a Treadmill Running Task [PDF]
IntroductionBreast pain is a major barrier to running for women. While breast support through the use of sports bras reduces breast-related discomfort, the effect of breast support on running performance is less understood.

Quadriceps or triceps surae proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching with post-stretching dynamic activities does not induce acute changes in running economy [PDF]
Previous studies reported that both a more compliant quadriceps tendon and a stiffer Achilles tendon are associated with better running economy. While tendon stiffness can be decreased by a single bout of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF ...

Runners with lower dynamic stability exhibit better running economy [PDF]
Maintaining dynamic stability during running incurs an energetic cost that does not contribute to forward propulsion. Despite this, dynamic stability has received little attention as a potential factor influencing running economy.

Size of Biceps Femoris Long Head Muscle Is Related to Running Economy in Male Recreational Runners [PDF]
Although the hamstring muscles play an important role in running, very little is known about the individual contributions of each hamstring muscle (biceps femorislong head, biceps femorisshort head, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus) toward running ...

Effects of flywheel resistance training on the running economy of young male well-trained distance runners [PDF]
The study aimed to investigate the effect of flywheel accentuated eccentric loading (AEL) training on the running economy (RE) of young male well-trained distance runners. Twenty-two runners participated and were randomly assigned to the flywheel (FG, n =
