EMG - sprinting/jogging

Expert Discussion Advanced Sprint Training

Does anyone have any info on EMG studies comparing sprinting to jogging regarding the relationship between hams, quads and glutes and their extent of contribution as prime movers?

I know in sprinting the hams and glutes contribute a fair extent more than the quads at top speed, but I am thinking the quads and glutes contribute atleast as much as the hams in jogging. This would be important regarding longer distances that some 400 sprinters use.

Thanks, in advance for any info.

all you got to do here is look at the athletes in there events.sprinters have overall good development in the legs up to 400m.

now look at the MD guys,slimmer but still balanced.

now look at the LDistance guys,slimmer again but more development in the calfs,weak looking hams,good quads
