Investigating the Effects of Knee Flexion during the Eccentric Heel-Drop Exercise

Investigating the Effects of Knee Flexion during the Eccentric Heel-Drop Exercise

This study aimed to characterise the biomechanics of the widely practiced eccentric heel-drop exercises used in the management of Achilles tendinosis. Specifically, the aim was to quantify changes in lower limb kinematics, muscle lengths and Achilles tendon force, when performing the exercise with a...
