Postactivation Potentiation Biases Maximal Isometric Strength Assessment [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2014
Postactivation potentiation (PAP) is known to enhance force production. Maximal isometric strength assessment protocols usually consist of two or more maximal voluntary isometric contractions (MVCs). The objective of this study was to determine if PAP would influence isometric strength assessment.
