Article Name : | | Medial side foot length from the horizontal axis of the ankle and Foot area while standing plantar flexed as determinants in long jump performance among previously untrained school children | Author Name : | | Raja Shekar K.V.,Rajesh Kumar | Publisher : | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | Article Series No. : | | ISRJ-12 | Article URL : | | | Author Profile | Abstract : | | Background: Take off part largely determines the long jump performance. Longer the time spent by
the foot at the take off board and loss of force into the ground could lead to ineffective take off. Longer foot
need more angular distance before it is cleared at the take off board and also the take off area of the foot
becomes larger may also lead to the loss of force transmission due to force dissipation through the larger
area of foot.
Objective of the study: This study was to analyze the correlation among the medial side foot length from the
horizontal axis of the ankle, foot area while standing plantar flexed and long jump performance. | Keywords : | | - foot area
- ineffective take off
- force dissipation
- loss of force
