Abstract
Lower extremity stiffness in the ankle can be a good indication of readiness of a long-distance athlete based on the amount of energy stored and released2. This study tested the validity of the Inertial Measurement Units (IMU) versus the criterion reference force plates for validity of lower extremity stiffness in multiple ankle hops.
