Individual differences in intrinsic ankle stiffness and their relationship to body sway and ankle torque.

When standing, intrinsic ankle stiffness is smaller when measured using large perturbations, when sway size is large, and when background torque is low. However, there is a large variation in individual intrinsic ankle stiffness. Here we determine if individual variation has consequences for postura...
