Abstract
It has been proposed that the metabolic energy cost of running is determined by the magnitude and rate of muscular force generation needed to oppose gravity and operate muscle-tendon springs. Whole animal experiments, in vivo muscle force and fascicle length recordings, and in vitro muscle shortening velocity data support the idea.Mesh:
