Indeed, Pousson et al. (1999) found that co-activation reduced only when tested isokinetically at the same velocity used in training, when using a high velocity.

In summary, it seems likely that the increases in muscle fascicle length that happen as a result of eccentric training lead to greater increases in high - velocity strength, smaller increases in RFD, and greater increases in strength at long muscle lengths (by a shift in the optimum angleIn summary, it seems likely that the increases in muscle fascicle length that happen as a result of eccentric training lead to greater increases in high - velocity strength, smaller increases in RFD, and greater increases in strength at long muscle lengths (by a shift in the optimum anglein muscle fascicle length that happen as a result of eccentric training lead to greater increases in high - velocity strength, smaller increases in RFD, and greater increases in strength at long muscle lengths (by a shift in the optimum anglein high - velocity strength, smaller increases in RFD, and greater increases in strength at long muscle lengths (by a shift in the optimum anglein RFD, and greater increases in strength at long muscle lengths (by a shift in the optimum anglein strength at long muscle lengths (by a shift in the optimum anglein the optimum angle).

On the other hand, if you measure force in the late phase (say around 300ms), after force has reached its peak (e.g. Behm & Sale, 1993), then you will see a change in peak force only if force production at high velocities has altered.

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).

Given that muscle architecture, muscle fiber type, and tendon stiffness are poor candidates for velocity - specificity, it is worth reminding ourselves that there must be some changes inherent inside a muscle that contribute to greater gains in force at higher speeds after velocity - focused training.

As you can see, within this model, the point in time where you measure force impacts whether you will expect to observe an increase or decrease in force expressed at high velocities after training.

Similarly, if we train using a slow speed, we should see the greatest gains in strength when we test strength at a low velocity, and the smallest gains in strength when we test at a high velocity.

Therefore, improving COD ability involves increasing the ability to produce force at high velocities, and in progressively shorter periods of time, which suggests a need for high - velocity strength.

At low velocities, the rate of change of force is very high and it drops off quickly with small increments in speed.

This could be because the main way in which the central nervous system signals the muscle to contract at a faster velocity is through a higher level of rate coding (Pasquet et al. 2006), while the main mechanism for increasing neural drive in response to a different muscle length is a reduced motor unit recruitment threshold (Pasquet et al. 2005).

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.

To prepare athletes for sport, are most interested in whether we can produce greater gains in strength at high velocities, by training using fast bar speeds.

If the principle of specificity applies to velocity, then when we train using a fast speed, we should see the greatest gains in strength when we test strength at a high velocity, and the smallest gains in strength when we test at a low velocity.

There is good evidence 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), but it does not always happen (Farthing & Chilibeck, 2003).

In contrast, using either constant resistance or variable resistance (which both increase peak bar speeds) could be helpful for improving force at higher velocities.

Yet, both training programs displayed velocity - specific strength gains, with the greatest gains in strength being at the highest velocities.

Conversion to Power In this phase, you build on the strength developed in phase 1 with training that will increase your ability to move a load at high velocitIn this phase, you build on the strength developed in phase 1 with training that will increase your ability to move a load at high velocitin phase 1 with training that will increase your ability to move a load at high velocity.

Subjects who were given the 300 mg / d CoQ10 supplement had a higher change in maximum velocity at the start and finish of the trial than the placebo group.

Power should also be targeted alongside strength development, as we have to remember that sporting movement requires force to be produced in a short space of time and at high movement velocities.

The greatest difference in strength - favoring eccentric contractions is seen when both eccentric and concentric contractions are performed at a high velocity.
