Single muscle fiber function with concurrent exercise or nutrition countermeasures during 60 days of bed rest in women.
There is limited information on skeletal muscle properties in women with unloading and countermeasure programs to protect the unloading-induced atrophy. The current investigation tested the hypothesis that a concurrent aerobic and resistance exercise training program would preserve size and contractile function of slow- and fast-twitch muscle fibers. A secondary objective was to test the hypoth...
متن کاملHuman soleus single muscle fiber function with exercise or nutrition countermeasures during 60 days of bed rest.
The soleus muscle has been consistently shown to atrophy more than other leg muscles during unloading and is difficult to protect using various exercise countermeasure paradigms. However, the efficacy of aerobic exercise, a known stimulus for oxidative adaptations, has not been tested in combination with resistance exercise (RE), a known hypertrophic stimulus. We hypothesized that a concurrent ...
متن کاملFiber type composition of the vastus lateralis muscle of young men and women.
This study presents data collected over the past 10 years on the muscle fiber type composition of the vastus lateralis muscle of young men and women. Biopsies were taken from the vastus lateralis muscle of 55 women (21.2+/-2.2 yr) and 95 men (21.5+/-2.4 yr) who had volunteered to participate in various research projects. Six fiber types (I, IC, IIC, IIA, IIAB, and IIB) were classified using mAT...
متن کاملMuscle fiber and tendon length changes in the human vastus lateralis during slow pedaling.
Muscle fascicle lengths of vastus lateralis (VL) muscle were measured in five healthy men during slow pedaling to investigate the interaction between muscle fibers and tendon. Subjects cycled at a pedaling rate of 40 rpm (98 W). During exercise, fascicle lengths changed from 91 +/- 7 (SE) to 127 +/- 5 mm. It was suggested that fascicles were on the descending limb of their force-length relation...
متن کاملRegional muscle oxygenation differences in vastus lateralis during different modes of incremental exercise
BACKGROUND Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is used to assess muscle oxygenation (MO) within skeletal muscle at rest and during aerobic exercise. Previous investigations have used a single probe placement to measure MO during various forms of exercise. However, regional MO differences have been shown to exist within the same muscle which suggests that different areas of the same muscle may hav...
