From: Foot strike pattern during running alters muscle-tendon dynamics of the gastrocnemius and the soleus

From top to bottom: Ensemble average ± one standard deviation activation (unitless), normalized fiber lengths (unitless), normalized fiber velocities (unitless), force generation ability (unitless) and normalized active fiber force (N/kg) for medial gastrocnemius (left) and the soleus (right) during rearfoot striking (blue) and forefoot striking (red). Vertical dashed lines represent timing of peak active fiber force. *indicates the portions of the gait cycle when there is a significant difference (p < 0.05).
