Age-related impairments in motor performance are caused by a deterioration in mechanical
and neuromuscular functions, which have been investigated from the macro-level of muscle …

The variability of force is indicative of the biological variability inherent in the human motor
system. Previous literature showed inconsistent findings of the effect of age on the variability …

The aim of this study was to concurrently assess the effect of age on neuromuscular and
mechanical properties in 24 young (23.6±3.7 years) and 20 older (66.5±3.8 years) healthy …

Background and aims: Muscle strength may decline with age differentially in the upper and
lower limbs. This information is difficult to capture through a single measure. The present …

Muscle quality is defined as strength per unit muscle mass. The aim of this study was to
measure the maximal voluntary isometric torque of the knee extensor and flexor muscle …

Aging is associated with the loss of muscle volume (MV) and force leading to difficulties with
activities of daily living. However, the relationship between upper limb MV and joint strength …

Abstract Clarke, ND, Kornilios, E, and Richardson, DL. Carbohydrate and caffeine mouth
rinses do not affect maximum strength and muscular endurance performance. J Strength …

This study tested the hypothesis that eccentric exercise (ECC) would increase force
fluctuation for several days following exercise; however, concentric exercise (CON) would …

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of eccentric exercise on the ability to
exert steady submaximal forces with muscles that cross the elbow joint. Eight subjects …

Purpose To determine the contribution of visuomotor correction to increased force
fluctuations in the elbow flexor and knee extensor muscles of elderly adults. Methods Young …
