Effects of different duration isometric contractions on tendon elasticity in human quadriceps muscles.
1. The present study aimed to investigate the influence of isometric training protocols with long- and short-duration contractions on the elasticity of human tendon structures in vivo. The elasticity was assessed through in vivo determination of the elongation (L) of the tendons and aponeuroses using ultrasonography, while the subjects performed ramp isometric exercise up to maximum voluntary c...
متن کاملEffects of isometric training on the elasticity of human tendon structures in vivo.
The present study aimed to investigate the effect of isometric training on the elasticity of human tendon structures. Eight subjects completed 12 wk (4 days/wk) of isometric training that consisted of unilateral knee extension at 70% of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) for 20 s per set (4 sets/day). Before and after training, the elongation of the tendon structures in the vastus lateralis mu...
متن کاملInfluences of repetitive muscle contractions with different modes on tendon elasticity in vivo.
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of repetitive muscle contractions on the elasticity of human tendon structures in vivo. Before and after each endurance test, the elongation of the tendon and aponeurosis of vastus lateralis muscle (L) was directly measured by ultrasonography while the subjects performed ramp isometric knee extension up to maximal voluntary isometric contractio...
متن کاملRole of tendon properties on the dynamic performance of different isometric muscles.
The effect of the tendon's viscoelastic stiffness on the dynamic performance of muscles with different architecture was determined using the cat's medial gastrocnemius and extensor digitorum longus. Dynamic response models were derived under sinusoidal contraction-relaxation in the range of 0.4-6.0 Hz and between 20 and 80% of the muscles' maximal isometric tension, manipulated by orderly recru...

Babault, Nicolas, Michel Pousson, Yves Ballay, and Jacques Van Hoecke. Activation of human quadriceps femoris during isometric, concentric, and eccentric contractions. J Appl Physiol 91: 2628–2634, 2001.—Maximal and submaximal activation level of the right knee-extensor muscle group were studied during isometric and slow isokinetic muscular contractions in eight male subjects. The activation le...
