What mechanical levers are used in long jump?

In long jump, the primary mechanical levers involved are the arms and legs of the athlete. The take-off leg acts as a first-class lever, where the ankle joint serves as the fulcrum, allowing for explosive upward force. The arms function as a second-class lever, helping to generate momentum and lift by swinging upward during the jump. This coordinated use of levers enhances the athlete's ability to achieve maximum distance.
