Muscle fatigue has been defined as a temporary loss in force or torque-generating ability
due to recent muscle contraction. 1 The mechanisms underlying muscle fatigue are …

Recovery of force production after an intense bout of activity may sometimes take several
days, especially at low activation frequencies ('low frequency fatigue'). This slow recovery …

The aim of this study was to compare the use of transcutaneous vs. motor nerve stimulation
in the evaluation of low-frequency fatigue. Nine female and eleven male subjects, all …

Controversies exist regarding objective documentation of fatigue development with low-
force contractions. We hypothesized that non-exhaustive, low-force muscle contraction may …

We examined the effect of an acute bout of submaximal non-fatiguing inspiratory loading (IL)
on maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), and on the activation of the diaphragm (DI) and …

Healthy untrained males (age 25.4±1.7 years, n= 12) gave their informed consent to take
part in all experiments within the study. After 100 intermittent (every 20 s) drop jumps from …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of inducing post‐activation
potentiation (PAP) during prolonged low‐frequency force depression (PLFFD) on motor unit …

Fatigue is widely accepted as a clinically relevant factor in the diagnosis, treatment, and
management of dysphagia. Despite the relative importance that is placed on swallowing …

No comparison of the amount of low-frequency fatigue (LFF) produced by different activation
frequencies exists, although frequencies ranging from 10 to 100 Hz have been used to …

Performance in high‐intensity exercise is dependent on the ability to activate motor units.
The main aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that adult men and women (age 19–27 …
