Effect of post-activation potentiation in Athletics: a systematic review
Revista Brasileira de Cineantropometria e Desempenho Humano, 2017 Post-activation potentiation is a physiological phenomenon reported to increase muscle performance during high-intensity exercise. To induce post-activation potentiation, maximal strength or power short-duration activities are performed minutes prior the

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

Acute whole-body vibration elicits post-activation potentiation [PDF]
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2009 Whole-body vibration (WBV) leads to a rapid increase in intra-muscular temperature and enhances muscle power. The power-enhancing effects by WBV can, at least in part, be explained by intra-muscular temperature. However, this does not exclude possible neural effects of WBV occurring at the spinal level.

Effects of post activation potentiation on electromechanical delay [PDF]
Clinical Biomechanics, 2019 Electromechanical delay (EMD) presumably depends upon both contractile and tensile factors. It has recently been used as an indirect measure of muscle tendon stiffness to study adaptations to stretching and training. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether contractile properties induced by a 6 s maximum voluntary isometric contraction ...

Baltic Journal of Sport and Health Sciences, 2018 Following an acute physical exercise, both post-activation potentiation and fatigue of the neuromuscular apparatus may occur. The voluntary recruitment of motor units occurs with frequencies that elicit incompletely fused tetanic contractions and these ...

Validation of jump squats as a practical measure of post-activation potentiation
Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, 2013 To determine if post-activation potentiation (PAP) can augment sports performance, it is pertinent that researchers be confident that any enhancement in performance is attributable to the PAP phenomenon. However, obtaining mechanistic measures of PAP in the daily training environment of highly trained athletes is impractical.

Effect of Post Activation Potentiation on Weightlifting Performance
, 2019 This study examined the acute performance enhancing effects of a clean pull performed at 120% of clean and jerk (C&J) maximum (1RM), on 90% of a clean 1RM. These effects were analysed in eight ranked competitive weightlifters.
