We will compare a male and female during a standing long jump. The areas to study will include the ROM of the upper leg segment (between lateral epicondyle and greater trochanter). According to the joint angles and velocity of the limbs, we can see why a particular sex has an advantage over the other. These reasons may be due to positing of the body and flexibility of the joints.
