The Anticipation of Gravity in Human Ballistic Movement

The Anticipation of Gravity in Human Ballistic Movement

Stretch-shortening type actions are characterized by lengthening of the pre-activated muscle-tendon unit (MTU) in the eccentric phase immediately followed by muscle shortening. Under 1 g, pre-activity before and muscle activity after ground contact, scale muscle stiffness, which is crucial for the r...
