Post-activation Potentiation Versus Post-activation Performance Enhancement in Humans: Historical Perspective, Underlying Mechanisms, and Current Issues [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 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 effect of drop jump on long jump performance during competition [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Drop jump is widely used in training sessions, aiming for chronic effects on long jump performance. However, the acute effect of drop jump on long jump performance through its use as a Conditioning Activity (CA) has not been explored.

Whole body vibration and drop jumps induces post-activation performance enhancement
Human Movement, 2022 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 Performance Enhancement as a Strategy to Improve Bench Press Performance to Volitional Failure [PDF]
Journal of Human Kinetics, 2023 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 ...

Post-Activation Performance Enhancement (PAPE) After Resisted Sprinting in Recreationally Active Participants: A Double-Blind Randomised Crossover Trial [PDF]
International Journal of Strength and Conditioning, 2023 Sprint performance and therefore sprint training play important roles in a range of sports and numerous methods to enhance sprint performance have been proposed. One such method is resisted sprinting, whereby a predetermined load (% body mass) or a load

The utilisation of post-activation performance enhancement to enhance jump performance during training and sporting competition [PDF]
, 2022 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.

Utilisation of Post-Activation Performance Enhancement in Elderly Adults [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021 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.

Effects of Post-Activation Performance Enhancement on Jump Performance in Elite Volleyball Players
Applied Sciences, 2022 Post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) is a widely described phenomenon, but the majority of studies tend to evaluate the response of various parameters of a conditioning activity (CA) on the same explosive exercise.
