Statistical analysis of data was performed via matlab version R2009a, spss and Univariate analysis of variance test(pNo significant difference was found in the peak vertical ground reaction during metatarsalcontact(P>0/05). However the peak vertical ground reaction force in calcaneus contact has significance difference (P <0/05).plantarflexors between groups had not significantly different precontact (p>0/05) but postcontact, medialisgastrucnemius had significant difference between two groups (p<0/05) and also each of the three variables were significantly different at three different heights(p<0/05). The higher rate of injury and osteoarthritis risk in people with genu varum in respect to normal ones might be due to higher ground reaction forces to the extremity during landing.}, keywords = {reaction force,Electromyography,leg muscles,Single leg drop landing,Genu varum}, url = {https://sshr.ut.ac.ir/article_51493.html}, eprint = {https://sshr.ut.ac.ir/article_51493_f715f4f85e3244081680fa606819f9f3.pdf} }
