Background The physiological impairments most strongly associated with functional
performance in older people are logically the most efficient therapeutic targets for exercise …

Objectives The purpose of this meta-analysis was to examine the effect of flywheel (FW)
resistance training with Eccentric Overload (FW-EOT) on muscle size and functional …

Context: Physical frailty is associated with reduced muscle strength, impaired physical
function, and quality of life. Testosterone (T) increases muscle mass and strength in …

In the quest for a viable non-gravity dependent method to “lift weights” in space, our
laboratory introduced iso-inertial resistance (YoYo™) exercise using spinning flywheel (s) …

The isoinertial training method owes its efficacy to an accommodated resistance and optimal
individualized eccentric overload. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of a 6-week …

The frailty syndrome is defined as unintentional weight and muscle loss, exhaustion, and
declines in grip strength, gait speed, and activity. Evidence with respect to the clinical …

Background Exposure to increased mechanical loading during physical training can lead to
increased tendon stiffness. However, the loading regimen that maximises tendon adaptation …

Objective: to determine the effects of power training with high movement velocity compared
with conventional resistance training with low movement velocity for older community …

Background Strength and power development are abilities important for athletic
performance in many sports. Generally, resistance training based on gravity is used to …

It is not currently known how the mechanical properties of human tendons change with
maturation in the two sexes. To address this, the stiffness and Young's modulus of the …
