Effects of Two Fatigue Protocols on Impact Forces and Lower Extremity Kinematics during Drop Landings: Implications for Noncontact Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury

Table 2

Comparison of the peak vGRF (FZmax), the peak loading rate (Gmax), and the occurrence times of FZmax and Gmax during landings between pre- and postfatigue test within different fatigue-induced protocols (R-FP and SV-FP).
