Changes in muscle activity with increase in leg stiffness during hopping.
While the spring-like leg behavior of legs in mammalian locomotion has been well documented, its neural basis remains ambiguous. The purpose of the present study was to examine leg stiffness control during hopping. Seven male subjects performed in place two-legged hopping at their preferred frequency with two different contact times of the stance phase, preferred and short ones (PCT and SCT, re...
متن کاملEffects of eccentric exercise on joint stiffness and muscle connectin (titin) isoform in the rat hindlimb.
We investigated the effects of repeated eccentric exercise for rat medial gastrocnemius muscle on ankle joint stiffness and muscle connectin (titin) isoform composition (longer form, alpha-connectin; shorter form, beta-connectin). Male Wistar rats were trained on a custom-made, isokinetic dynamometer (eccentric-exercise group, n = 6; sham-operated group, n = 6). The exercise session consisted o...

متن کاملPlyometric Training Effects on Gastrocnemii Muscle and Tendon Passive Stiffness
Plyometric training is commonly used to improve athletic performance but it is unclear how each component of the muscle-tendon complex (MTC) is affected by this intervention. The effects of fourteen weeks of plyometric training on the passive stiffness of the gastrocnemii muscle and Achilles tendon was determined simultaneously in order to assess possible local adaptations of elastic properties...
متن کاملAssociation of Arterial Stiffness Following Glucose Uptake and Exercise with Baseline Vitamin D Levels in Inactive Men and Women
vitamin D deficiency is associated with many cardiovascular disorders. Arterial stiffness responses also depend on nutritional and exercise. Therefore, the study aimed to investigate the relationship between arterial stiffness response after glucose uptake and exercise with baseline levels of vitamin D in inactive men and women. The present study was an analysis correlation study, and the subj...
