Chronic and acute mediators of passive viscoelasticity in human skeletal muscle fibres
Abstract The cellular viscoelastic modulus in skeletal muscle tissue responds dynamically to chronic stressors, such as age and exercise. Passive tissue mechanics can also be sensitive to acute stimuli, such as mechanical loading and/or activation‐induced muscle fatigue.

Abstract It is well‐established that resistance training generates neural adaptations. These may be greater when exercises mainly include eccentric contractions or when muscles are trained at long length. However, it remains to be clarified whether the length at which muscles are trained influences neural adaptation following eccentric training.

The Influence of CrossFit Training on Running Mechanics
Introduction 40 million Americans run regularly.1 Contrary to many runner’s beliefs, increased strength may be beneficial while not adding body mass. An increase in strength in specific muscles may improve running gait and performance.

Abstract Muscle mechanoreflex is crucial to cardiac vagal modulation during exercise and can be activated during passive calf stretch. Herein, we aimed to determine whether cardiac vagal modulation following a single session of passive stretch is linked to interindividual cardiac vagal responses at the onset of passive calf muscle stretching in healthy
