Fatigue can be classified as peripheral or central depending on the extent of its effects. Muscle strength reduction, associated with the appearance of fatigue during running, produces kinetics and kinematics modifications which could lead to an increased risk of injury. This study aimed to analyze the effect of peripheral and central fatigue protocols in running kinematics and to investigate the relationship between isokinetic strength and dynamic stability in fatigue related changes. Eighteen male recreational runners participated in the study. The dynamic postural stability index (DPSI) and quadriceps and hamstring isokinetic strength were assessed before the fatigue test. Then, angular kinematics during treadmill running were evaluated in pre- and post-fatigue states (central and peripheral). The results showed that runners with higher hamstring isokinetic strength and better DPSI had lower modifications after central fatigue of stance time, knee flexion, vertical and leg stiffness, and ankle dorsiflexion during the absorption and propulsion phases (r &gt; 0.400, p   0.400, p &lt; 0.05). In summary, high values of hamstring isokinetic concentric strength and dynamic stability are related to lower increases of range of movements during running after central and peripheral fatigue. So, fatigue may affect to a lesser extent the running technique of those runners with higher hamstring strength and stability values.

Higher Hamstrings Strength and Stability Are Related to Lower Kinematics Alteration during Running after Central and Peripheral Fatigue
