Intertask comparison of frontal plane knee position and moment in female athletes during three distinct movement tasks
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports, 11/10/09

Harty CM et al. – The purpose of our study was to establish the intertask differences in frontal plane knee posture during step down, single leg land, and drop vertical jump tasks; determine intra–athlete correlations in knee posture across tasks; and investigate the intra–athlete correlations between frontal plane knee posture while standing and during movement. The lack of relationship between static and dynamic frontal plane knee posture suggests that neuromuscular mechanisms contribute to the consistency in movement patterns across tasks.
