The history-dependent features of muscle force production: A challenge to the cross-bridge theory and their functional implications
The cross-bridge theory predicts that muscle force is determined by muscle length and the
velocity of active muscle length changes. However, before the formulation of the cross …

Eccentric exercise≠ eccentric contraction
Whether eccentric exercise involves active fascicle stretch is unclear due to muscle-tendon
unit (MTU) series compliance. Therefore, this study investigated the impact of changing the …

Residual force enhancement is affected more by quadriceps muscle length than stretch amplitude
Little is known about how muscle length affects residual force enhancement (rFE) in
humans. We therefore investigated rFE at short, long, and very long muscle lengths within …

The day-to-day reliability of residual force enhancement during voluntary and electrically stimulated contractions
Residual force enhancement (rFE) is characterized by increased steady-state isometric force
following active muscle lengthening compared with a fixed-end isometric contraction at the …

Residual force enhancement within the human quadriceps is greatest during submaximal stretch-hold contractions at a very long muscle length
