On the other hand, many studies have reported velocity - specific strength gains after
isokinetic strength training at different speeds, where the intent was maximal
in all groups (Moffroid & Whipple, 1970; Caiozzo et al. 1981; Coyle et al. 1981; Jenkins et al. 1984; Garnica, 1986; Thomeé et al. 1987; Petersen et al. 1989; Bell et al. 1989; Ewing Jr et al. 1990), and also after constant load strength training at different speeds, where intent was maximal
in all groups (Kaneko et al. 1983; Aaagaard et al. 1994; 1996; Moss et al. 1997; Ingebrigtsen et al. 2009).
Many studies have shown that high velocity
isokinetic training leads to greater gains
in strength when tested at high
isokinetic velocities (Moffroid & Whipple, 1970; Caiozzo et al. 1981; Coyle et al. 1981; Jenkins et al. 1984; Garnica, 1986; Thomeé et al. 1987; Petersen et al. 1989; Bell et al. 1989; Ewing Jr et al. 1990), although this is not always true (Farthing & Chilibeck, 2003).
Most investigations have reported that long - term periods of Olympic weightlifting lead to increases
in lower body strength, which are most commonly measured by reference to the 1RM back squat (Hoffman et al. 2004; Tricoli et al. 2005) but also isometric force production (Häkkinen et al. 1988; Haff et al. 2008) and
isokinetic torque (Chaouachi et al. 2014).
In perhaps the most famous velocity - specificity study, Behm & Sale (1993) tasked subjects to perform ankle dorsiflexion training in two ways (isometric and isokinetic), where both conditions required the subjects to «move as rapidly as possible regardless of the imposed resistance.&raqu

Kea et al. (2001) measured distance covered
in the one - leg sideways hop (with a tape) as well as concentric and eccentric
isokinetic hip abduction moments (with a dynamometer).
There is good evidence that high velocity
isokinetic training leads to greater gains
in strength when tested at high
isokinetic velocities, and there is weaker evidence that the same effect occurs after constant load training.

Using eccentric - only knee extension training, Guilhem et al. (2013) assessed the effect of constant load and
isokinetic external load types on joint - angle specific changes
in torque and EMG amplitude.
Testing strength when muscles are changing length (such as during
isokinetic dynamometry or during a conventional barbell lift) must necessarily involve a reduction
in maximal force - generating capacity as a result of both of these relationships.
Similarly, peak moment ratios between muscle groups can be performed by setting the dynamometer to perform concentric
isokinetic muscle actions
in both directions, rather than concentric
in one direction and eccentric
in the other.
The set angular velocity can be zero,
in which case the external resistance is isometric, or non-zero,
in which case the external resistance is
isokinetic.
In contrast,
isokinetic training failed to improve torque at short muscle lengths (35 and 45 degrees), and also failed to increase EMG amplitude at long muscle lengths (85 degrees).
Nevertheless, Burnett et al. (2007) compared the ICC and COV of the EMG amplitude for both surface and fine wire electrodes
in cervical extension between MVICs and SVICs using an
isokinetic dynamometer.
Arokoski et al. (2002) found that patients with hip osteoarthritis (mean age 56 years) displayed an isometric and an
isokinetic hip extension moment that was 68 — 87 % of that found
in healthy age - matched controls.
Comparing two different velocities using an
isokinetic machine deadlift, Noe et al. (1992) found no differences
in erector spinae muscle activity between two different bar speeds (45.7 vs. 30.5 cm / s).
This may reflect the poor relationship between the external load type used
in testing (
isokinetic) and
in sprinting (constant load).
Wiktorsson - Moller et al. (38) found that massage induced a decrease
in quadriceps isometric force and hamstrings
isokinetic force, which was contradictory to the results found
in the present study.
Comparing two different velocities during an
isokinetic machine deadlift test, Noe et al. (1992) found no differences
in quadriceps muscle activity between the two speeds used (45.7 vs. 30.5 cm / s).
They noted that the peak
in gluteus maximus muscle activity during the
isokinetic lift occurred at 83 % of lift height, which was after the point at which peak force was produced at 67 % of lift height.
Comparing two different velocities during an
isokinetic machine deadlift test, Noe et al. (1992) found no differences
in latissimus dorsi muscle activity between the two speeds used (45.7 vs. 30.5 cm / s).
It is not immediately clear what factor is responsible for the differences
in the findings between studies, as both isoinertial and
isokinetic external loading and both eccentric - only and concentric - only muscle actions have led to significant increases
in pennation angle.
Comparing two different velocities during an
