Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Touch-down and take-off characteristics of the long jump performance of world level above- and below-knee amputee athletes

Notas: Sumario: The aims of this study were to establish the take-off characteristics of long jump performance of disabled amputee athletes, and to establish to what extent amputee athletes conform to a model of performance defined for elite able-bodied athletes. . It was concluded that below-knee amputees displayed the same basic jumping technique as elite able-bodied long jumpers, but above-knee amputees did not. These findings have implications for the training and technical preparation of amputee long jumpersRegistros relacionados: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 43, nº 10, October 2000 ; p. 1637-1650Materia / lugar / evento: Deportes Pruebas físicas Biomecánica Extremidades inferiores Minusválidos Atletismo Otros autores: Lees, Adrian
