Effect of repeated hot water immersion on muscle strength, power, function and physical activity in healthy older adults: A randomised crossover trial

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing leads to an increased prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty, characterised by progressive declines in muscle strength, power and function and reduced physical activity. Hot water immersion (HWI) could potentially improve muscle function, but this is yet to be explored in older adults.

Lower limbs strength variations between injured and non-injured professional soccer players

Science Progress
Due to its physical demands, professional soccer is becoming a real challenge regarding players’ exposure to high injury risk. Given its tight correlation with high-intensity actions, muscular strength is a crucial physical characteristic for soccer ...

Neuromuscular fatigability with repeated exercise in hypoxia: From single‐joint paradigms to sprints

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Acute hypobaric or normobaric hypoxic exposure accelerates neuromuscular fatigability during repeated exercise. Indices of peripheral and central fatigue are not different at exhaustion in mild, moderate and severe hypoxia compared with normoxia, but task failure occurs earlier.

Isokinetic strength measurements in early knee osteoarthritis.

Acta reumatologica portuguesa, 2009
One of the most important reasons for locomotor dysfunction and disability in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) is muscle weakness in the lower extremity. The aim of this study was to compare the isokinetic knee muscle strength of patients with early knee OA with those of healthy people.Fifty-one patients with bilateral knee osteoarthritis who ...

NSAID ingestion augments training‐induced muscle hypertrophy and differentially affects muscle mRNA expression, but not strength gains, in trained men

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic outlining the impact of NSAID ingestion on resistance exercise training‐induced changes in muscle morphology, function and gene networks relative to placebo ingestion in trained males. Abstract Non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely overused in sports.

Isokinetic strength of the shoulder rotators in primary school boys

Australian Journal of Physiotherapy, 1992
Twenty boys aged between eight and 12 years were studied to determine the reliability of using an isokinetic dynamometer (KIN-COM) in evaluating shoulder rotation and to assess the relationship of anthropometric measures to isokinetic strength. Using a repeated measures design, each subject was asked to work the internal and external rotators of the ...

Acute Effect of Percussive Massage on Cross‐Section Area, Muscle Strength, and Late Muscle Pain of the Quadriceps Muscle Following a Fatigue Protocol in Physically Active Men: Randomized Clinical Trial

Physiotherapy Research International, Volume 31, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose The massage gun is widely used to alleviate delayed‐onset muscle soreness (DOMS); however, empirical evidence regarding its physiological effects remains limited. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the acute effects of percussive massage on the quadriceps muscle's cross‐sectional area (CSA), strength performance ...
