Is the Soleus a Sentinel Muscle for Impaired Aerobic Capacity in Heart Failure? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Purpose: Skeletal muscle wasting is well documented in chronic heart failure (CHF). This article provides a more detailed understanding of the morphology behind this muscle wasting and the relation between muscle morphology, strength, and exercise ...

Skeletal muscle mitochondrial marker responses to a single bout and 6 weeks of high load versus high volume resistance training in previously trained men

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 5, Page 2564-2574, 1 May 2026.
Abstract The effects of high‐load (HL) versus high‐volume (HV) resistance training (RT) on various molecular outcomes are similar. However, mitochondrial responses remain understudied. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to interrogate mitochondrial mRNA and protein responses to acute and chronic HL versus HV RT.

Medial gastrocnemius muscle stiffness cannot explain the increased ankle joint range of motion following passive stretching in children with cerebral palsy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Stretching is often used to increase/maintain joint range of motion (ROM) in children with cerebral palsy (CP) but the effectiveness of these interventions is limited.

Mathematical model of pennate muscle. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The purpose of this study is to create a new mathematical model of pennate striated skeletal muscle. This new model describes behaviour of isolated flat pennate muscle in two dimensions (2D) by taking into account that rheological properties of muscle ...

Gender variability in electromyographic activity, in vivo behaviour of the human gastrocnemius and mechanical capacity during the take-off phase of a countermovement jump [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to analyse gender differences in neuromuscular behaviour of the gastrocnemius and vastus lateralis during the take-off phase of a countermovement jump (CMJ), using direct measures (ground reaction forces, muscle ...

The isometric knee extension moment-angle relationship: experimental data and predictions based on cadaver data [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The influence of parameter values (i.e., fiber optimum lengths and moment arms) and simplification of the geometry of a Hill-type muscle model on the prediction of normalized maximal isometric knee extension moment to knee joint angle relationship was ...

Ultrasound predicts skeletal muscle fat infiltration in healthy middle‐aged and young adults: Validation against MRI

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 2135-2147, 1 April 2026.
Abstract This study developed an ultrasound prediction equation for measuring fat fraction in lower limb muscles of healthy middle‐aged and young participants and applied it in a randomised controlled trial (RCT) to assess the relationship between fat fraction and strength in exercising and non‐exercising females.

Exercise Programmes for People With Haemophilia: A Scoping Review

open access: yesHaemophilia, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 381-401, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Advances in haemophilia treatment have enabled safe exercise practice as recommended by disease management guidelines, yet there is no gold‐standard protocol for optimal dose. Emerging therapies could influence exercise recommendations, highlighting the need for evidence‐based guidelines tailored to people with haemophilia to ensure
