Scientific Reports, 2018 The steady-state isometric force following active muscle shortening or lengthening is smaller (force depression; FD) or greater (residual force enhancement; RFE) than a purely isometric contraction at the corresponding length. The mechanisms behind these

Stretch Shortening Cycle in Childhood [PDF]
Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2014 AbstractThe examination of stretch shortening cycle (SSC) in children became an interesting topic for research during the past years as it provides an important insight into the functioning of the neuromuscular system. This paper presents several studies related to children and their ability to jump.

The Journal of PhysiologyAbstract It is unclear whether cortical and spinal excitability modulations contribute to enhanced SSC performance. Therefore, this study investigated cortical and spinal excitability modulations during and following shortening of stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) contractions compared with pure shortening (SHO ...

Differences in plantarflexor function during a stretch-shortening cycle task due to limb preference [PDF]
, 2015 Most healthy humans move symmetrically at gross limb level but large kinetic and kinematic asymmetries have been observed at joint level during locomotion. The aim of this study was to assess muscle function asymmetries in healthy, active adults using an

Stiffness regulation during stretch-shortening cycle exercise
, 2021 The present series of studies were designed to investigate the motor control mechanism during and after stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) exercise. Special emphasis was placed on stiffness regulation during SSC exercise.

Review of Literature: Neuromuscular Adaptations to Plyometrics
International Journal of Strength and Conditioning, 2021 Plyometric exercises are a training stimulus that were developed in an attempt to bridge the gap between weight room muscular strength exercises and the speed or power needed on the track, field or court.
