Acute changes in gastrocnemius muscle stiffness following different work–rest calf-raise protocols and percussive therapy

Background: Work–rest (W:R) structure is a key programming variable in athletic training. This randomized crossover experimental study examined how 3 calf-raise W:R configurations affected acute medial gastrocnemius stiffness measured by shear-wave elastography (SWE), and how stiffness changed during a standardized per...
