«It is believed that
low velocity exercise performed laying or kneeling on all fours would help normalise motor control which would include timing dysfunction (of TrA).

And since new research shows that fiber type conversions (from type IIX to type IIA) are independent of
exercise type (Farup et al. 2014) and contraction
velocity (Eftestøl et al. 2016), it seems most likely that it is the
lower volume that is responsible for the reduced fiber type conversion, and not the bar speed.
This could be one reason why high -
velocity exercises seem to transfer better to sporting performance than
low -
velocity exercises (Pareja - Blanco et al. 2016a; Pareja - Blanco et al. 2016b; Mora - Custodio et al. 2016), because the faster
exercises contain high - speed co-ordination elements that then transfer better to sporting movements than the slower
exercises.
Since increases in neural drive at short muscle lengths are likely driven by reductions in motor unit recruitment threshold (Pasquet et al. 2005), while increases in neural drive at faster
velocities and during concentric contractions are primarily caused by increased rate coding (Pasquet et al. 2006; Harwood et al. 2011; Enoka & Duchateau, 2017), the transfer of neural drive from partial
exercises using short muscle lengths could be
lower than we might expect, although this would probably depend on whether the strength training
exercise was performed with a lighter load, and explosively.
