Sasajima S, Kubo K
Med Sci Sports Exerc . 2025 Feb; PMID: 39929143
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of heating on Achilles tendon mechanical properties (elongation, elastic energy, and hysteresis) and performance during stretch-shortening cycle exercise (pre-stretch...

Mino S, Tanaka S, Teshima T, Kubo K
J Sports Med Phys Fitness . 2024 Dec; 65(3):299-305. PMID: 39652052
Background: Joint stiffness endurance is considered essential in many sports events. We previously reported that reduced joint stiffness due to repetitive hopping was associated with reduced active muscle stiffness. However,...

Mino S, Kosaka T, Kubo K
Sports Biomech . 2023 Nov; :1-15. PMID: 37921271
In some sporting events (e.g., long-distance running), the ability to maintain joint stiffness is considered an essential physical ability. However, the determinants of joint stiffness endurance remain unclear. This study...
