An Isoinertial Technique to Assess Individual Lifting Capability
Musculoskeletal overexertion injuries, particularly of the low back, are a major problem in industries in which material handling is done by workers. As increasing numbers of injuries indicate, techniques to select persons suitable for material handling

Isovelocity vs Isoinertial Sprint Cycling Tests for Power- and Torque-Cadence Relationships [PDF]
Sprint cycling performance is heavily dependent on mechanical peak power output (PPO) and the underlying power- and torque-cadence relationships. Other key indices of these relationships include maximum torque (TMAX), cadence (CMAX) and optimal cadence ...

It is important to study muscular behavior after different types of sports training. Some studies using electromyography show that muscle activity during eccentric muscle activation is lower than during isometric or concentric contractions.

INFLUENCE OF ISOINERTIAL EXERCISES ON LOWER LIMB POWER AND STABILITY OF VOLLEYBALL PLAYERS
Introduction: Flywheel training devices have initially been used as means of astronaut conditioning in outer space, during long missions. The system uses a rotating disc to store the energy during the concentric phase of the movement and converts it to ...

Effects of isoinertial or machine-based strength training on performance in tennis players
The objective of this study was to analyze the effects of two 8-week neuromuscular training (NMT) interventions on selected physical indicators in young tennis players. Twenty-four junior male tennis players were assigned to a machine-based (MG) (n = 8),

Comparison of hamstring/quadriceps ratio between isoinertial and isokinetic measurements
OBJECTIVE: To determine the applicability and predictive accuracy of an isoinertial resistance machine for the assessment of hamstring/quadriceps conventional (concentric) ratio (CR). METHOD: Thirty-two resistance trained young men (23.53 ± 3.2 yrs) were

Cross-sectional and longitudinal uses of isoinertial, isometric, and isokinetic dynamometry
The purposes of this investigation were to assess whether maximal isoinertial (triceps pushdown [TP] and triceps extension [TE]), isometric and isokinetic (1.04, 2.08, 3.14, 4.16, and 5.20 rad · s) forearm extension strength measures: 1) presented ...

Myosin heavy chain isoform expression: Influence on isoinertial and isometric performance
Thirty-six healthy men with varying degrees of physical training background performed maximal-effort isometric and isoinertial knee extensor actions, with relative loads equal to 40% and 70% of one-repetition maximum.

The effect of a prior eccentric lowering phase on concentric neuromechanics during multiple joint resistance exercise in older adults. [PDF]
Abstract Aging involves a marked decline in physical function and especially muscle power. Thus, optimal resistance exercise (RE) to improve muscle power is required for exercise prescription. An eccentric lowering phase immediately before a concentric lift (ECC‐CON) may augment concentric power production, due to various proposed mechanisms (e.g ...
