Additionally, another study by Kawakami et al. (1993) that measured 32 males ranging in physical activity status (untrained to bodybuilders) found that the pennation angle ranged widely between 15 and 53 degrees in the long head of the triceps compared to 9 to 26 degrees in the medial head, respectively.

Delp et al. (2001) reported that the pennation angle ranged between 12.6 — 16 degrees, depending on the region and muscle belly being measured.

Comparing the effects of deadlift technique, Escamilla et al. (2000) did not directly measure peak ankle angle but they found that the shank angle was different between the conventional deadlift and sumo deadlift styles, being around 4 degrees more vertical in the sumo style than in the conventional style.

The peak moment arm length of the latissimus dorsi muscle overall ranges between -21.1 to -45.0 mm depending on what region of the muscle is being measured and the joint angle.
