Amplitude of Biceps Femoris Activation and Triaxial Acceleration in a 50-Meter Test in Sprinters: Pilot Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Objective: To describe the relationship between bilateral electrical activity in the biceps femoris and the variation of triaxial acceleration in three 50 m sprints.

Alterations to longitudinal muscle morphology and mechanical function following immobilization and recovery in female ovariectomized and intact rats

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Serial sarcomere number (SSN) is reduced following immobilization of a muscle in a shortened position in male rodents thereby impairing muscle contractile function. However, in female rodents the effects of oestrogen on SSN and mechanical changes following immobilization and re‐ambulation are unknown.

Declines in eccentric knee flexor weakness following repeat sprint running are related to declines in biceps femoris voluntary activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Introduction: \ud Hamstring strain injuries (HSI) are the predominant non-contact injury in many sports. Eccentric hamstring muscle weakness following intermittent running has been implicated within the aetiology of HSI.

Reliability of biceps femoris and semitendinosus muscle architecture measurements obtained with ultrasonography

open access: yes, 2016
Introduction Currently, little attention is given to the muscle architecture reliability studies of the hamstring using a robust statistical. Our purpose was to determine the reliability of ultrasound measurements of muscle thickness, fascicle length ...

Effects of bed rest and immobilization on intramuscular and intermuscular adipose tissue: A systematic review

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle disuse caused by bed rest and immobilization is associated with muscle atrophy and insulin resistance, which might be related to increases in intramuscular fat (IntraMAT) and intermuscular fat (InterMAT) accumulation. In this systematic review, we compiled evidence on the effects of bed rest and unilateral lower‐limb immobilization on ...

Common inputs to motor units are modulated by force profile and muscle length

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Groups of motor units receive common synaptic inputs from specialized networks of premotor neurons to produce movement. Here, we test whether common inputs received by motor units in the first dorsal interosseous are fixed or task‐dependent during submaximal isometric contractions.

Physiological mechanisms underlying enhanced performance with blood flow restriction training: neuromuscular, vascular and metabolic adaptations

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We investigated how 6 weeks of dynamic knee‐extensor interval training with blood flow restriction (BFR‐leg) and without (CTRL‐leg) impacts performance and its mechanisms using non‐invasive methods. Specifically, we used gold‐standard methods to assess neuromuscular function, vascular function using Doppler ultrasound, and near ...

Effects of gluteus medius and biceps femoris stimulation on reduction of knee abduction moment during a landing task

open access: yes, 2023
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury prevention should focus primarily on reduction of the knee abduction moment (KAM) in landing tasks. Gluteus medius and hamstring forces are considered to decrease KAM during landing. The effects of different muscle

Surgical Outcomes of Biceps femoris Muscle Biopsy in Cattle

open access: yes, 2010
The biceps femoris muscle is of mixed fiber-type involved in locomotion and hind limb support. Repeat sampling allows the characterization of changes between animals in their muscle fiber type that occur with maturation.
