Effect of unpredictable timing on the hip, knee, and ankle kinematics and center of mass during deceleration tasks

CONCLUSIONS: The deceleration task in this study, SRB, causes a low knee-flexion angle at SS. The COM remained higher during unanticipated stopping, which is related only to hip flexion angle during the task. Knee flexion movement does not contribute to lowering COM during an unpredictable deceleration task.PMID:38445844 | DOI:10.23736/S0022-4707.23.15344-8
