Compound maximal motor unit response is modulated by contraction intensity, but not contraction type in tibialis anterior
(Wiley, 2019)Determining a single compound maximal motor response (MMAX) or an average superimposed MMAX response (MSUP) are commonly used reference values in experiments eliciting raw electromyographic, motor evoked potentials, ... -
Contraction intensity and sex differences in knee-extensor fatigability
(Elsevier, 2017)Females are less fatigable than males during isometric contractions across various muscles and intensities. However, sex differences in knee-extensor fatigability remain relatively unexplored. Purpose: To determine the sex ... -
Corticospinal excitability during shortening and lengthening actions with incremental torque output
(Wiley, 2018)The modulation of motor evoked potentials (MEPs), an index of corticospinal excitability, has been shown to increase during isometric contractions with incremental torque output in accordance with the contribution between ... -
Differences in force normalising procedures during submaximal anisometric contractions
(Elsevier, 2018)Eccentric contractions are thought to require a unique neural activation strategy. However, due to greater intrinsic force generating capacity of muscle fibres during eccentric contraction, the understanding of neural ... -
Familiarisation to maximal recumbent eccentric cycling
(IOS Press, 2017)BACKGROUND: Isokinetic eccentric cycling is increasingly being utilised to examine the effect of chronic eccentric muscle training however little is known about how individuals familiarise to such a unique training modality. ... -
Pelvic biomechanics and muscle activation patterns during non–weighted squats in U/19 university–level rugby union players
(2013)Hyperlordosis or anterior pelvic tilt is a common non-neutral spinal posture associated with weak core stability, low back pain and altered lumbopelvic muscle activation patterns. Yet the effects of altered lumbopelvic ... -
The relationship between selected pelvic biomechanic parameters and hamstring injuries in semi–professional rugby players
(North-West University, 2010)Hamstring injuries have a high prevalence in rugby union players. Delayed transverse abdominus activation as well as lordosis is associated with hamstring injuries. No literature regarding this relationship in rugby players ...
