Sentences with phrase «isokinetic torque»

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).

Not exact matches

However, Funato et al. (2008) compared the isokinetic concentric and eccentric knee extension and flexion torques between elite senior and college Olympic weightlifters.

The elite Olympic weightlifters did display a greater isokinetic concentric knee flexion torque but the extent to which hamstring strength is relevant to Olympic weightlifting is unclear.

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.

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.

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).

For example, Masuda et al. (2005) found that ball velocity during maximal kicking efforts by university soccer players was associated with hip adductor but not knee extensor torque production during isokinetic testing.
