Sentences with phrase «isokinetic external»

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.

Isokinetic external resistance means that the velocity is constant throughout the whole movement.

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.

Some researchers speculated that the velocity - specificity might be limited to isokinetic external load types, and that the same effect would not be observed with constant loads, such as free weights.

Not exact matches

In one study, Remaud et al. (2010) assessed joint angle - specific changes in maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) torque and in neural drive after isotonic and isokinetic types of external load, using knee extension training.

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.

Although both types of external load were variable, the machine knee extension would still have involved a larger contraction at longer muscle lengths than the isokinetic device.

This may reflect the poor relationship between the external load type used in testing (isokinetic) and in sprinting (constant load).
