The influence of Achilles tendon mechanical behaviour on “apparent” efficiency during running at different speeds

PURPOSE: We investigated the role of elastic strain energy on the “apparent” efficiency of locomotion (AE), a parameter that is known to increase as a function of running speed (up to 0.5–0.7) well above the values of “pure” muscle efficiency (about 0.25–0.30). METHODS: In vivo ultrasound measuremen...
