The purpose of this study was to determine how the ankle dorsiflexion angle evolves throughout a day of training and to identify the factors that influence this angle. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Methods<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> Thirty short-track speed skaters, from 2 teams, participated in this study. The maximum ankle dorsiflexion angle was obtained in a lunge position facing a wall, using a digital inclinometer. All measures were obtained 3 times per side, 6 times per day, on 2 training days separated by at least a week. We conducted multiple tests to study the impact of repetition, day, side, team level, sex, and moment on the ankle dorsiflexion angle. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> The 3 times repeated measures and the 2\u00a0days of training did not have a significant influence on the results. There was a statistically significant difference between the first time point of the day and the 5 other time points for both ankles. Moreover, the influence of sex and team level was not statistically significant. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Conclusions<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> The results indicate that there are significant changes in ankle dorsiflexion range of motion but only after the first warm-up of the day. Such findings could enable team staff to enhance athletes\u2019 precompetition preparation and tailor ankle mobility training regimens more effectively.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1123\/ijspp.2023-0423","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,21]],"date-time":"2024-06-21T10:52:38Z","timestamp":1718967158000},"page":"833-835","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Intraday Variation of Ankle Dorsiflexion in Short-Track Speed Skaters"],"prefix":"10.1123","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Jules","family":"Claudel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"\u00c9cole de Technologie Sup\u00e9rieure, Laboratoire d\u2019innovation ouverte en technologie de la sant\u00e9, Montr\u00e9al, QC, Canada"},{"name":"Institut National du Sport du Qu\u00e9bec, Montr\u00e9al, QC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"\u00c9milie","family":"Turner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institut National du Sport du Qu\u00e9bec, Montr\u00e9al, QC, Canada"},{"name":"Short Track Teams, Speed Skating Canada, Montr\u00e9al, QC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8212-3482","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Julien","family":"Cl\u00e9ment","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"\u00c9cole de Technologie Sup\u00e9rieure, Laboratoire d\u2019innovation ouverte en technologie de la sant\u00e9, Montr\u00e9al, QC, Canada"},{"name":"Institut National du Sport du Qu\u00e9bec, Montr\u00e9al, QC, Canada"},{"name":"Short Track Teams, Speed Skating Canada, Montr\u00e9al, QC, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"100","reference":[{"issue":"4","key":"r1","series-title":"Sports Med","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"505","DOI":"10.1007\/s40279-014-0298-z","article-title":"Performance characteristics of long-track speed skaters: a literature review","volume":"45","author":"Konings MJ","year":"2015","unstructured":"Konings MJ, Elferink-Gemser MT, Stoter IK, van der Meer D, Otten E, Hettinga FJ.
