Are Surface Electromyography Parameters Indicative of Post-Activation Potentiation/Post-Activation Performance Enhancement, in Terms of Twitch Potentiation and Voluntary Performance? A Systematic Review [PDF]
Journal of Functional Morphology and KinesiologyThe aim was to identify if surface electromyography (sEMG) parameters are indicative of post-activation potentiation (PAP)/post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE), in terms of twitch potentiation and voluntary performance.

Effects of post-tetanic potentiation induced by whole-body electrostimulation and post-activation potentiation on maximum isometric strength [PDF]
Biology of Sport, 2021 It is currently unknown the most effective potentiation protocol to increase maximum strength. Hence, we investigated the separated and combined effects of post-tetanic potentiation (PTP) induced by whole body electrostimulation (WB-EMS) and post ...

Total potentiation level: a new metric for quantifying post-activation potentiation dynamics using tensiomyography and statistical parametric mapping [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and BiotechnologyIntroductionPost-activation potentiation (PAP), a transient increase in muscle twitch force after conditioning stimuli, may influence performance. Traditional discrete metrics often fail to resolve PAP’s time-dependent contractility changes. We introduce

A comparison of three post-activation potentiation enhancement warm up strategies on bench press performance [PDF]
Frontiers in Sports and Active LivingBackgroundAt loads greater than 80% of one repetition maximum in bench press, at the ascending phase of the movement, the barbell decelerates or stops for a short time before it accelerates again during a region named sticking region.

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).

Optimal Timing for Post-Activation Potentiation in Women Collegiate Volleyball Players
Sports, 2016 Post-activation potentiation (PAP) has been shown to acutely amplify muscular power output and may be advantageous for athletes looking to improve performance. PAP may have an acute window of effectiveness between 2 to 20 min.
