Exploring the effects of training variables, Bryanton et al. (2012) and Cotter et al. (2013) found that peak knee extensor moments increased with increasing depth (albeit with the same absolute loads). (strengthandconditioningresearch.com)
The results were a little unclear because the changes were very small after such a light training program — but the increases in MMSE score were indeed correlated (with p < 0.05) with increases in knee extensor strength. (sweatscience.com)
Thus, the objective of the study was to determine the effect of self - myofascial release (SMR) via foam roller application on knee extensor force and activation and knee joint ROM. (journals.lww.com)
