Single Leg Drop and Hop: Insight Into Multisegment Foot Kinematics, Kinetics and the Role of Visual Focus in Healthy Young Adult Males.
Introduction: Understanding foot joint loading during different dynamic activities is essential information for guiding exercise progression in rehabilitation. While walking and running biomechanics are well studied, joint-specific kinetic data during a single leg drop and hop task, often used in rehabilitation, are lacking. This study aimed to evaluate (1) the kinetic behavior of the ankle, Chopart, Lisfranc, and MTP-1 joints during a drop-hop task under different visual constraints and (2) to contextualize these findings by comparing them with heel-strike running, to assess the relative loading demands of the drop-hop task.
Methods: Seventeen recreationally active male adults performed a single-leg drop and hop under two visual focus conditions: central (focusing on the landing spot) and peripheral (focusing straight ahead). Kinematics, moments, and power were analyzed using a four-segment foot model with statistical parametric mapping. Additionally, peak plantarflexion moments and power outputs were compared with existing data from heel-strike running data from a mixed-sex sample (4 males, 3 females) collected in a separate study using the same setup.
Results: Findings revealed no differences between central and peripheral focus conditions. Heel-strike running shows similar joint loading, but higher power generation (p < 0.001) at the ankle and Chopart joint, higher absorption (p < 0.001) at the Chopart and MTP-1 (p < 0.05) joint and lower power absorption (p < 0.001) at the ankle and Lisfranc joint.
Conclusion: Visual input does not influence foot biomechanics during a single-leg drop and hop. This task produces similar joint loading patterns similar to heel-strike running but with reduced power generation at the ankle and midfoot. Contrary to global belief, the single leg drop-hop task is not excessively more demanding in terms of foot joint loading, supporting the earlier use of drop-hop exercises in rehabilitation programs. They offer a controlled way to reintroduce loading while avoiding the full propulsion demands of running, independent of visual focus.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, the official journal of the Australian Podiatry Association and The College of Podiatry (UK), is an open access journal that encompasses all aspects of policy, organisation, delivery and clinical practice related to the assessment, diagnosis, prevention and management of foot and ankle disorders.
Journal of Foot and Ankle Research covers a wide range of clinical subject areas, including diabetology, paediatrics, sports medicine, gerontology and geriatrics, foot surgery, physical therapy, dermatology, wound management, radiology, biomechanics and bioengineering, orthotics and prosthetics, as well the broad areas of epidemiology, policy, organisation and delivery of services related to foot and ankle care.
The journal encourages submissions from all health professionals who manage lower limb conditions, including podiatrists, nurses, physical therapists and physiotherapists, orthopaedists, manual therapists, medical specialists and general medical practitioners, as well as health service researchers concerned with foot and ankle care.
The Australian Podiatry Association and the College of Podiatry (UK) have reserve funds to cover the article-processing charge for manuscripts submitted by its members. Society members can email the appropriate contact at Australian Podiatry Association or The College of Podiatry to obtain the corresponding code to enter on submission.
