Figure Lengend Snippet: Correlation analysis between ankle range of motion (ROM), relative peak ankle isokinetic torque and mean pre-landing electromyogram (EMG) amplitude for each muscle group. Panels A–B: tibialis anterior (TA) for the DL and NDL, Panels C–D: medial gastrocnemius (MG) for the DL and NDL, and Panels E–F: peroneus brevis (PB) for the DL and NDL. Correlation coefficients are coloured such that negative associations are purple-shifted and positive associations are blue-shifted. The colour intensity provides information related to the magnitude of the correlation (i.e. darker = stronger; lighter = weaker). LO, lateral outside; LI, lateral inside; DO, diagonal outside; DI, diagonal inside; SJ, straight jump; Dorsi, dorsiflexors; Plantar, plantar flexors; 60, 60 deg/s; 120, 120 deg/s.
Article Snippet: Participants were then asked to sit comfortably (modified position) on the isokinetic dynamometer (Cybex Humac Norm model 770 Cybex, division of Lumex Inc., Ronkonkoma, NY, USA) as per user guidelines.
