          Hi guys, I don't speak english very well (I'm a maccherone :bisou: :bigsmile:).
          I would make (is the correctly verb? mah… :question:) a simple question.
          Stiffness is very important for sprinters (especially 400..) . How much is important stiffness in 100m?

          I do not think stiffness is the correct word.  could you try to find another word?

          Depends on the context of the word. Maybe if you could explain it better, we could understand.

          Do you mean leg stiffness….this is very important for sucess in the sprinting events. If you're referring to stiffness as in soreness I think that it is generally a short-term performance detriment.
