Abstract

The aim of this study was to compare the foot-ankle joint mechanics of running drills and running. Seventeen long-distance runners performed five popular running drills (A-skip, B-skip, Bounding, Heel flicks, Straight leg running) and a run at 3.88 m/s. Kinematics, kinetics and power values were calculated for the ankle, midtarsal (MT) and metatarsophalangeal (MP) joints. Electromyographic activity was recorded for the soleus, gastrocnemius medialis, lateralis and abductor hallucis muscle. The A-skip, the B-skip and the Heel flicks induced a smaller ankle (p < 0.001, ŋ² = 0.41), MT (p < 0.001, ŋ² = 0.43) and MP (p < 0.001, ŋ² = 0.47) dorsiflexion peak than running. No difference was found between the running drills and running for ankle, MT and MP moment. The Bounding induces a higher positive ankle power than running (diff: 5.5 ± 7.5 J/kg, p = 0.014, d = 1.05). The A-skip (diff: 2.8 ± 2.9 J/kg, p < 0.001, d = 1.5) and the B-skip (diff: 2.7 ± 2.1 J/kg, p < 0.001, d = 1.4) induce a smaller MT positive power than running. This study offers an analysis of the mechanical behaviour of the foot-ankle complex to help track and field coaches select their running drills in an evidence-based manner.

跑步训练和长跑过程中足部和踝部生物力学的比较。

本研究旨在比较跑步练习和跑步时的足踝关节力学。17 名长跑运动员进行了五种常用的跑步练习（A-skip、B-skip、Bounding、Heel flicks、Straight leg running），并以 3.88 米/秒的速度进行了跑步。计算了踝关节、跗骨中段（MT）和跖趾关节（MP）的运动学、动力学和功率值。记录了比目鱼肌、腓肠肌内侧、外侧和内收肌的肌电图活动。与跑步相比，A-skip、B-skip 和足跟弹跳引起的踝关节（p 2 = 0.41）、MT（p 2 = 0.43）和 MP（p 2 = 0.47）背屈峰值较小。在踝关节、MT 和 MP 扭矩方面，跑步练习与跑步没有差异。与跑步相比，绕桩能产生更高的踝关节正动力（差异：5.5 ± 7.5 J/kg，p = 0.014，d = 1.05）。A-skip（差异：2.8 ± 2.9 J/kg，p d = 1.5）和 B-skip（差异：2.7 ± 2.1 J/kg，p < 0.001，d = 1.4）引起的 MT 正功率小于跑步。本研究提供了对足踝复合体机械行为的分析，以帮助田径教练以循证的方式选择跑步训练。

期刊介绍： Sports Biomechanics is the Thomson Reuters listed scientific journal of the International Society of Biomechanics in Sports (ISBS). The journal sets out to generate knowledge to improve human performance and reduce the incidence of injury, and to communicate this knowledge to scientists, coaches, clinicians, teachers, and participants. The target performance realms include not only the conventional areas of sports and exercise, but also fundamental motor skills and other highly specialized human movements such as dance (both sport and artistic). Sports Biomechanics is unique in its emphasis on a broad biomechanical spectrum of human performance including, but not limited to, technique, skill acquisition, training, strength and conditioning, exercise, coaching, teaching, equipment, modeling and simulation, measurement, and injury prevention and rehabilitation. As well as maintaining scientific rigour, there is a strong editorial emphasis on ''reader friendliness''. By emphasising the practical implications and applications of research, the journal seeks to benefit practitioners directly. Sports Biomechanics publishes papers in four sections: Original Research, Reviews, Teaching, and Methods and Theoretical Perspectives.
