Abstract
⺠This investigation presented effects of maturation on kinetic and kinematic variables during maximal running velocity in youth. ⺠Dimensionless vertical stiffness increased significantly with each maturity state. ⺠Dimensionless leg stiffness was significantly higher in post- compared to mid- and pre-PHV participants. ⺠Eccentric power was significantly lower in pre- compared to mid- and post-PHV participants. ⺠Concentric power increased significantly with maturation. ⺠Furthermore, SSC seemed to contribute to maximal running velocity and the greatest changes appeared at the time of PHV.
