The sliding filament and cross-bridge theories of muscle contraction provide discrete
predictions of the tetanic force-length relationship of skeletal muscle that have been tested …

The relationship between muscle structure and function has been a matter of investigation
since the Renaissance period. Extensive use of anatomical dissections and the introduction …

This paper examined if an electromyography (EMG) driven musculoskeletal model of the
human knee could be used to predict knee moments, calculated using inverse dynamics …

Este libro presenta, con un enfoque fundamentalmente práctico, los diferentes métodos de
entrenamiento desde el punto de vista de la medicina del deporte y de la fisiología del …

In the present study, the in vivo force–length relations of the human soleus (SOL) and tibialis
anterior (TA) muscles were estimated. Measurements were taken in six men at ankle angles …

We hypothesized that muscles crossing the elbow have fundamental differences in their
capacity for excursion, force generation, and moment generation due to differences in their …

Skeletal muscle strength is often determined to evaluate the adaptive response to an
exercise intervention programme. Although dynamometry is considered the “gold standard” …

Incorrect bicycle configuration may predispose athletes to injury and reduce their cycling
performance. There is disagreement within scientific and coaching communities regarding …

1. Human extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) sarcomere length was measured
intraoperatively in five subjects using laser diffraction. 2. In a separate cadaveric study …

Introduction: Changes in muscle architecture induced by eccentric knee extensor training
remain unclear, as well the adaptive responses of synergistic knee extensor muscles with …
