Post-activation potentiation (PAP) is a well-described phenomenon with a short half-life (~
28 s) that enhances muscle force production at submaximal levels of calcium saturation (ie …

The primary aim of this narrative review was to outline the historical genesis of resistance
training strategies that incorporate high-load, low-velocity exercises and low-load, high …

Resistance training is frequently performed with the goal of stimulating muscle hypertrophy.
Due to the key roles motor unit recruitment and mechanical tension play to induce muscle …

Background Resistance-training causes changes in the central nervous system (CNS);
however, the sites of these adaptations remain unclear. Objective To determine sites of …

Purpose. We profiled the etiology and recovery of neuromuscular fatigue post-simulated-
soccer-match-play. Methods. Fifteen semi-professional players completed a 90 min …

Strength training results in changes in skeletal muscle; however, changes in the central
nervous system also occur. Over the last 15 years, non‐invasive brain stimulation …

PURPOSE: Training methods that require maximal intensity efforts against light-and heavy-
resistance are commonly used for athletic development. Typically these sessions are …

Evidence for performance decrements following prolonged static stretching (SS) has led to a
paradigm shift in stretching routines within a warm-up. Rather than SS, dynamic stretching …

The purpose of the present systematic review and meta-analysis was to explore the effects
of mental fatigue on upper and lower body strength endurance. Searches for studies were …

Optimal strategies for enhancing strength and improving motor skills are vital in athletic
performance and clinical rehabilitation. Initial increases in strength and the acquisition of …
