Table 1. Summary of single-leg peak reaction forces produced during a step.
| Direction | Slap, % (n) | Stroke, % (n) |
|---|---|---|
| Vertical | 113 ± 8 (5) | 39 ± 6 (3) |
| Fore—aft | 63 ± 8 (5) | 47 ± 14 (4) |
| Transverse | 79 ± 17 (3) | -37 ± 13 (3) |
Positive reaction forces point up, forward, and medial to the foot being analyzed. Results are presented as mean percent of body weight ± SEM, followed by the number of individuals analyzed in parentheses. Twenty-four total sequences were analyzed (two to six sequences per individual).
