Influence of dynamic stretching on ankle joint stiffness, vertical stiffness and running economy during treadmill running [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether and how dynamic stretching of the plantarflexors may influence running economy. A crossover design with a minimum of 48 h between experimental (dynamic stretching) and control conditions was ...

The Impact of a Single Stretching Session on Running Performance and Running Economy: A Scoping Review [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 One determining factor for running performance is running economy (RE), which can be quantified as the steady-state oxygen consumption at a given running speed.

Resistance Exercise for Improving Running Economy and Running Biomechanics and Decreasing Running-Related Injury Risk: A Narrative Review. [PDF]
Sports (Basel), 2022 It is well-accepted that at least a certain amount of resistance exercise (RE) is recommended for most endurance athletes. In this review, we aim to summarize the evidence regarding the effects of RE on running economy, running biomechanics, and running ...

Level, Uphill, and Downhill Running Economy Values Are Correlated Except on Steep Slopes. [PDF]
Front Physiol, 2021 The aim of this study was first to determine if level, uphill, and downhill energy cost of running (ECR) values were correlated at different slopes and for different running speeds, and second, to determine the influence of lower limb strength on ECR ...

The exoskeleton expansion: improving walking and running economy. [PDF]
J Neuroeng Rehabil, 2020 Since the early 2000s, researchers have been trying to develop lower-limb exoskeletons that augment human mobility by reducing the metabolic cost of walking and running versus without a device.

Running biomechanics: shorter heels, better economy [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2008 Better running economy (i.e. a lower rate of energy consumption at a given speed) is correlated with superior distance running performance. There is substantial variation in running economy, even among elite runners.

Factors correlated with running economy among elite middle‐ and long‐distance runners [PDF]
Physiological Reports, 2021 Running economy (RE) at a given submaximal running velocity is defined as oxygen consumption per minute per kg body mass. We investigated RE in a group of 12 male elite runners of national class.
