Changes in inflammatory mediators following eccentric exercise of the elbow flexors.
The aims of this study were to examine the plasma concentrations of inflammatory mediators including cytokines induced by a single bout of eccentric exercise and again 4 weeks later by a second bout of eccentric exercise of the same muscle group. Ten untrained male subjects performed two bouts of the eccentric exercise involving the elbow flexors (6 sets of 5 repetitions) separated by four week...
متن کاملDifference in the magnitude of muscle damage between elbow flexors and knee extensors eccentric exercises.
The aim of this study was to investigate the difference in the magnitude of muscle damage between maximal eccentric exercises of the elbow flexors (EF) and knee extensors (KE). Twelve sedentary male volunteers participated in the study. Range of motion (ROM), isometric peak torque (IPT), delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS), creatine kinase activity (CK), and myoglobin concentration (Mb) wer...
متن کاملPassive resistive torque of the plantar flexors following eccentric loading as assessed by isokinetic dynamometry.
Isokinetic dynamometers may provide a useful means of measuring muscle stiffness resulting from eccentric exercise because they can measure torque from computer-controlled passive movements of joints (passive resistive torque; PRT). In this study, a Biodex measured increased ankle PRT (52%; p <.001) following heel drop exercise in nine young women. Therefore, isokinetic dynamometers can provide...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Torque Developed by the Elbow Flexors in Pa-tients with Neuromuscular Diseases
In planning the optimum treatment for patients with neuromuscular diseases (NMD), it is essential to know as much as possible about their functional state. Assessment of the strength of certain muscles is the most direct measure of motor deficiency. In the development of normative data needed for patients with NMD, the use of torque measurements is required. Forty-nine patients (31 men and 18 w...
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of the velocity related pathophysiology of spasticity and rigidity in the elbow flexors.
OBJECTIVE To quantify velocity dependent and position related properties of increased muscle tone measured during a constant velocity stretch. METHODS Elbow flexors were vertically stretched under four different velocities (40, 80, 120, and 160 degrees /s) through a 75 degrees range of motion in 12 patients with hemiparesis, 16 with parkinsonism, and 12 normal controls. From reactive torque m...
