This study aimed to compare the lower limb stiffness characteristics of dancers and athletes during drop landings to investigate possible mechanisms of impact\u2010related injuries. Kinematics and kinetics were recorded as 39 elite modern and ballet dancers (19 men and 20 women) and 40 college\u2010level team sport athletes (20 men and 20 women) performed single\u2010legged drop landings from a 30\u2010cm platform. Vertical leg stiffness and joint stiffness of the hip, knee, and ankle were calculated using a spring\u2010mass model. Stiffness data, joint kinematics, and moments were compared with a group\u2010by\u2010sex 2\u2010way analysis of variance. Multiple linear regression was used to assess the relative contribution of hip and knee and ankle joint stiffness to variance in overall vertical leg stiffness for dancers and athletes. Dancers had lower leg (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.001), knee joint (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.034), and ankle joint stiffness (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.043) than athletes. This was facilitated by lower knee joint moments (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.012) and greater knee (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.029) and ankle joint (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.048) range of motion in dancers. Males had higher leg (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.001) and ankle joint stiffness (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.001) than females. This occurred through lower ankle range of motion (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.001) and greater ankle moment (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.022) compared to females. Male and female dancers demonstrated reduced lower limb stiffness compared to athletes, indicating a more pliable landing technique. Dance training techniques could potentially inform approaches to injury prevention in athletes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/sms.13309","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,9,22]],"date-time":"2018-09-22T13:21:52Z","timestamp":1537622512000},"page":"71-81","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Comparison
