Ankle power output using GRF prediction in ANYBODY?

Main Forum
#1

Hi I was wondering is it possible to find the ankle power output using the ground reaction force prediction method within Anybody? I know I can get the GRF but I was wondering if there is a direct way to get anybody to calculate the ankle power output for me.

I am using only inertial motion data from Xsens, and no pressure plates.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Halldor,

Provided that you have full body motion the model will predict the GRF. Then model will also predict the torques the muscles generate around the ankle joint this is part of the standard output, and since the joint speed is also available you can calculate the power.
