Optimizing post activation potentiation for explosive activities in competitive sports [PDF]
Journal of Human Kinetics, 2016 Abstract Post activation potentiation (PAP) has shown improved performance during movements requiring large muscular power output following contractions under near maximal load conditions. PAP can be described as an acute enhancement of performance or an enhancement of factors determining an explosive sports activity following a preload ...

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 ...

Cortisol patterns are associated with T cell activation in HIV. [PDF]
, 2012 ObjectiveThe level of T cell activation in untreated HIV disease is strongly and independently associated with risk of immunologic and clinical progression. The factors that influence the level of activation, however, are not fully defined.

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.
