Cut with a slimmer fit in mind, the tailored swim - short comes in a
variety of leg lengths from a 3 inch inseam for those who like to show a little leg, to a 7 inch for the more conservative among us.
The hip extension moments of the front and rear legs were greatest with a more acute shank angle (60 degrees) and a longer step length (85 %
of leg length) and smallest with a perpendicular shank angle (90 degrees) and a shorter step length (55 % of leg length).
Split squat stance with a long step length (85 %
of leg length) and a small shank angle (60 degrees) involves the greatest peak knee and ankle angles for the front leg.
They reported that most acute peak knee angle for the front leg was observed for the longest step length (85 %
of leg length) and the smallest shank angle (60 degrees).
Knee extension moment of the front leg is greatest with a more acute shank angle (60 degrees) and a shorter step length (55 %
of leg length).
The knee extension moment of the front leg is greatest with a more acute shank angle (60 degrees) and a shorter step length (55 %
of leg length).
The knee extension moment of the front leg was greatest with a more acute shank angle (60 degrees) and a shorter step length (55 %
of leg length) and smallest with an overextended shank angle (105 degrees) and a longer step length (85 % of leg length).
They reported that most acute peak ankle angle for the front leg was observed for the longest step length (85 %
of leg length) and the smallest shank angle (60 degrees).
Split squat stance with a short step length (55 %
of leg length) and a perpendicular shank angle (90 degrees) involves the greatest peak hip angle for both legs.
In the split squat, hip extension moment of the front and rear legs is greatest with a more acute shank angle (60 degrees) and a longer step length (85 %
of leg length).
They noted that the split squat stance with the shortest step length (55 %
of leg length) and a perpendicular shank angle (90 degrees) involved the most acute peak hip angle for both legs.
Exploring the effect of step length and shank angle during split squats with the rear foot on the ground, Schütz et al. (2014) compared step lengths of 55 %, 70 %, and 85 %
of leg length and tibia angles of 60, 75, 90 (tibia perpendicular to the ground) and 105 degrees across both front and rear legs.
Hip extension moment of the front and rear legs is greatest with a more acute shank angle (60 degrees) and a longer step length (85 %
of leg length).
