The Deceleration Dilemma: Leveraging The Relationship Between Quadriceps Function and Deceleration to Optimize Return to Sport by Steven Higbie, Christopher Gallina, Russ Paine, Lane Bailey, Walter R. Lowe

“…Though decelerations place a high eccentric demand on the quadriceps, little is known about the relationship between quadriceps function and deceleration performance. Traditional functional testing batteries often over-estimate quadriceps function and lack assessments of deceleration performance, while current deceleration testing is often heavily reliant on technology and performed at shallow angles. …”
