A methodology to investigate the relationship between lower-limb dynamics and shoe stiffness using custom-built footwear

It has been demonstrated that, by varying the mechanical properties of footwear, the sprinting performance can be improved. It has been hypothesized that, for maximal performance, tuning the shoe stiffness to the requirements of the athlete is necessary. The aim of this study was to investigate the...
