Acceleration and deceleration phases characterise shuttle running (SR) compared to constant speed running (CR); mechanical work is thus expected to be larger in the former compared to the latter, at the same average speed (v mean). The aim of this study was to measure total mechanical work (W tot (+) , J kg(-1) m(-1)) during SR as the sum of internal (W int (+) ) and external (W ext (+) ) work and to calculate the efficiency of SR.

Abstract
Acceleration and deceleration phases characterise shuttle running (SR) compared to constant speed running (CR); mechanical work is thus expected to be larger in the former compared to the latter, at the same average speed (v mean). The aim of this study was to measure total mechanical work (W tot (+) , J kg(-1) m(-1)) during SR as the sum of internal (W int (+) ) and external (W ext (+) ) work and to calculate the efficiency of SR.
