摘要：

The aim of this study was to investigate the reliability of an in vivo adaptation of the short range stiffness experiment associated with the application of a mathematical model to determine the stiffness of both torque dependent and independent components of the plantarflexors series elastic component. Fourteen subjects participated in this study. The experimental protocol consisted of quickly moving the ankle joint in dorsiflexion during constant voluntary isometric plantarflexion at 7 submaximal torque levels. Relationships between joint stiffness and torque were established and the stiffness of both torque dependent and independent components were determined using the alpha method. The day-to-day reliability was assessed for joint stiffness and stiffness of both torque dependent and independent components (ICC higher than 0.88 and CVs lower than 6.0%). This method could then be used to better understand adaptive subjacent mechanisms to assess the effects of training protocols, and the rehabilitation of neuromuscular pathologies or traumatisms.
