The effect of post-activation potentiation in the sprint in freestyle
International Seven Journal of Multidisciplinary, 2023Post-Activation Potentialization (PPA) is defined as an acute improvement in muscle function after stimulation. Different variables of PPA protocols can affect performance, such as the duration, the type of stimulus, the level of training of the requirements and the time interval between the conditioning activity and the specific activity.

Post-activation potentiation in the neocortex: I. Acute preparations
Brain Research, 1994Long-term potentiation is widely studied as a memory model, and has been demonstrated in a number of subcortical sites in both acute and chronic preparations. In the neocortex, however, most of the demonstrations of LTP have been in neocortical slice or acute preparations, and even these have often required a drug-induced attenuation of inhibition ...

Post-activation potentiation and potentiated motor unit firing patterns in boys and men
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2023Post-activation potentiation (PAP) describes the enhancement of twitch torque following a conditioning contraction (CC) in skeletal muscle. In adults, PAP may be related to muscle fibre composition and is accompanied by a decrease in motor unit (MU) firing rates (MUFRs).

Post‐activation potentiation (PAP) in endurance sports: A review
European Journal of Sport Science, 2018AbstractWhile there is strong support of the usefulness of post‐activation potentiation (PAP) phenomenon in power demanding sports, the role that PAP could play in endurance sports has received less attention. The aim of this review is to present evidence for a better understanding of PAP in endurance athletes; and to discuss the physiological basis ...

The postnatal development of post-activation potentiation in the rat neocortex
Developmental Brain Research, 1983The postnatal development of short-term potentiation (STP) and long-term potentiation (LTP) of the transcallosal response (TCR) was examined in anesthetized rats, aged 7 days (PN7) to adult (greater than or equal to PN180). Stimulation of callosal fibers produced a biphasic, positive-negative TCR recorded at the surface of the anterior neocortex in all

Optimization of post-activation potentiation in girls and women
European Journal of Applied PhysiologyMaximal conditioning contractions (CCs) can lead to the enhancement of evoked-twitch characteristics in human skeletal muscle. This phenomenon is termed post-activation potentiation (PAP). In the knee extensors, PAP is greater in men compared with boys. In adults, the optimal CC duration for PAP is ~ 10 s.

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.

Brain Research, 1995
Previous experiments have shown the neocortex to be very resistant to the induction of long-term potentiation in chronic preparations. We show here that kindling-induced potentiation effects can be reliably produced in the neocortex of awake, freely moving rats. These effects develop rather slowly.

Post-activation potentiation in the neocortex of awake freely moving rats
Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 1998The search for the cellular processes that underlie information storage within neuronal systems lead to the development of two models of post-activation potentiation, long-term potentiation (LTP) and kindling. Both models give rise to a long-lasting increase in synaptic strength and altered unit discharge patterns.

Increase in post activation potentiation in females following a cycling warmup
Human Movement Science, 2018Post activation potentiation (PAP) is a phenomenon in which muscular force is acutely enhanced as a result of prior contractile activity. The net augmentation is dependent upon the intensity of the preceding conditioning contraction influencing calcium release and phosphorylation of the regulatory myosin light chain.
