Bimodal recovery pattern in human skeletal muscle induced by exhaustive stretch-shortening cycle exercise
Article Abstract:
The evidence of the association between exhaustive stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) exercise and the bimodal recovery pattern in the human skeletal muscle is investigated. Results show that the exercise leads to a decrease in the H- and stretch reflexes, which may then later on cause muscle damages and associated inflammation that lead to a long-lasting reduction in performance.

Biomechanical factors affecting running economy
Article Abstract:
A study is described that analysis the effect of biomechanical factors on the amount of energy used by a runner. The study showed that the only biomechanical factor that seems to effect running economy is the production of force during ground contact.

Force and EMG power spectrum during eccentric and concentric actions
Article Abstract:
Maintaining the maximal eccentric force throughout the complete range of elbow motion is difficult. Results from this study of the EMG power spectrum do not support the position that fast units are selectively activated in maximal eccentric actions.
