| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purposes of this study were to clarify the changes in lower limb motions and muscle activities during the long distance running and to acquire the useful findings for improving the performance in long distance running. Two research themes were set. The one was to clarify the mechanism of change in muscle recruitment with change in running velocity. The other was elucidation of strategy for the maintenance of running performance at the time of fatigue. By using optical motion capture system and wireless EMG probes, lower limb motions and muscle activities during treadmill running were measured and analysed.
As a result, it became clear that muscles about hip joint played important role for increasing the running velocity in distance running and that muscle activities of semitendinosus, tibialis anterior, gastrocnemius and soleus in stance phase were easy to be affected by fatigue.
