Open AccessCan the cross-education of strength attenuate the impact of detraining after a period of strength training? A quasi-randomized trial
Unilateral strength training may attenuate the decline in muscle strength and size in homologous, contralateral muscles. This study aimed to determine whether the cross-education of strength could specifically...

Open AccessSprint cycling rate of torque development associates with strength measurement in trained cyclists
A cyclist’s rate of force/torque development (RFD/RTD) and peak force/torque can be measured during single-joint or whole-body isometric tests, or during cycling. However, there is limited understanding of the...

Open AccessInvoluntary sustained firing of plantar flexor motor neurones: effect of electrical stimulation parameters during tendon vibration
Simultaneous application of tendon vibration and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) induces an involuntary sustained torque. We examined the effect of different NMES parameters (intensity, pattern of ...

Eccentric exercise inhibits the H reflex in the middle part of the trapezius muscle
The objectives of this study were to (1) investigate the modulation of the H reflex immediately after and 24 h after eccentric exercise in the presence of delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and (2) test the ...

Changes in muscle afferents, motoneurons and motor drive during muscle fatigue
Fatigue is a reduction of maximal muscle force or power that occurs with exercise. It is accompanied by changes at multiple levels in the motor pathway and also by changes in the discharge patterns of muscle ...
