Sponsor's own description
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the relationship between temporal, kinetic, and kinematic jump variables and patellar and Achilles tendons' structure in athletes and non-athletes. The main research questions are: Does the structure of the patellar and Achilles tendons relate to the temporal, kinetic, and kinematic jump variables? Does the relationship between these variables differ between athletes and non-athletes? To answer these questions, researchers will compare the two groups to determine if the relationships between the variables are similar. Participants will undergo a UTC (Ultrasound Tissue Characterization) scan of the patellar and Achilles tendons and perform five jumps: a countermovement jump, a single-leg countermovement jump on each leg and a single-leg horizontal jump on each leg.
