Eccentric exercise-induced muscle weakness abolishes sex differences in fatigability during sustained submaximal isometric contractions

Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2023
Background: Females are typically less fatigable than males during sustained isometric contractions at lower isometric contraction intensities. This sex difference in fatigability becomes more variable during higher intensity isometric and dynamic ...

Muscle fiber conduction velocity is more affected after eccentric than concentric exercise [PDF]

, 2010
It has been shown that mean muscle fiber conduction velocity (CV) can be acutely impaired after eccentric exercise. However, it is not known whether this applies to other exercise modes.

Isometric exercise and blood pressure: 12-weeks of training/ detraining in the elderly

, 2023
Background: Elderly people are particularly affected by rising systolic blood pressure (SBP). We performed a study to test our hypothesis that resting blood pressure (RBP) reducing isometric exercise training (IET) can be delivered in a group setting ...
