Whole body vibration and drop jumps induces post-activation performance enhancement
Purpose Many studies have investigated the effect of whole body vibration (WBV) exercise on post-activation potentiation. It was reported that an intervention protocol of WBV combined with 5 drop jumps (DJs) led to an increase in twitch force, suggesting

Post-activation Potentiation Versus Post-activation Performance Enhancement in Humans: Historical Perspective, Underlying Mechanisms, and Current Issues [PDF]
Post-activation potentiation (PAP) is a well-described phenomenon with a short half-life (~28 s) that enhances muscle force production at submaximal levels of calcium saturation (i.e., submaximal levels of muscle activation).

Post-Activation Performance Enhancement as a Strategy to Improve Bench Press Performance to Volitional Failure [PDF]
Post-Activation Performance Enhancement (PAPE) has been commonly used as a strategy to improve acute force production, although its effects on performance to volitional failure are still unknown. The aim of this study was to analyse the influence of a PAPE protocol on bench press performance in a training set to volitional failure in trained ...

Utilisation of Post-Activation Performance Enhancement in Elderly Adults [PDF]
With age, many physiological changes occur in the human body, leading to a decline in biological functions, and those related to the locomotor system are some of the most visible. Hence, there is a particular need to provide simple and safe exercises for the comprehensive development of physical fitness among elderly adults.

The utilisation of post-activation performance enhancement to enhance jump performance during training and sporting competition [PDF]
Post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) may be used to enhance jump performance. The review recommends PAPE can be subcategorised into two groups: Training PAPE and Performance PAPE. Training PAPE methods can be incorporated for training purposes where more select equipment, time, and space is available.
