Kinetic limitations of maximal sprinting speed

Journal of Biomechanics, 1983
One runner was filmed when sprinting at a variety of speeds on a treadmill and a variety of kinetic and kinematic variables was calculated during leg recovery. Peak total leg energy increased at lower speeds but changed little between penultimate and maximal speed.

Digit ratio (2D:4D) and sprinting speed in boys

American Journal of Human Biology, 2008
AbstractDigit ratio (2D:4D), a putative correlate of prenatal testosterone, has been found to relate to performance in sport and athletics such that low 2D:4D (high prenatal testosterone) correlates with high performance. Speed in endurance races is strongly related to 2D:4D, and may be one factor that underlies the link between sport and 2D:4D, but ...

A power equation for the sprint in speed skating

Journal of Biomechanics, 1992
An analysis of the start of the 500 m speed skating races during the 1988 Olympic Winter Games showed a remarkably high correlation between the acceleration of the skater in the first second of the sprint and the final time (r = -0.75). In this study a power equation is used to explain this high coefficient of correlation.

Asymmetry in Determinants of Running Speed During Curved Sprinting

Journal of Applied Biomechanics, 2016
This study investigates the potential asymmetries between inside and outside legs in determinants of curved running speed. To test these asymmetries, a deterministic model of curved running speed was constructed based on components of step length and frequency, including the distances and times of different step phases, takeoff speed and angle ...

Long-Term Training-Induced Changes in Sprinting Speed and Sprint Momentum in Elite Rugby Union Players

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2014
Speed and sprint momentum are considered to be important physical qualities for rugby. The purpose of the study was to understand the development of these qualities in senior and junior international rugby players. In part 1 of the study, a group of senior (n = 38) and junior (n = 31) players were tested for speed over 40 m.

Implementing High-speed Running and Sprinting Training in Professional Soccer

International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2020
AbstractHigh-speed running and sprinting training play an important role in the development of physical capabilities, sport-specific performance and injury prevention among soccer players. This commentary aims to summarize the current evidence regarding high-speed running and sprinting training in professional soccer and to inform its implementation in

Which Measure of Drop Jump Performance Best Predicts Sprinting Speed?

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2011
The purpose of this study was to evaluate which measure of a drop jump (DJ) has the highest correlation with sprinting speed over 60 m. For use of comparison, maximal leg strengths in a front squat, countermovement jump, and squat jump were also assessed. The subjects in the study were all high-caliber female university rugby players.

Limitations to maximum sprinting speed imposed by muscle mechanical properties

Journal of Biomechanics, 2012
It has been suggested that the force-velocity relationship of skeletal muscle plays a critical limiting role in the maximum speed at which humans can sprint. However, this theory has not been tested directly, and it is possible that other muscle mechanical properties play limiting roles as well.
