Effect of warm-up protocols using lower and higher loads on multiple-set back squat volume-load
This study aimed to compare the effects of CA protocols involving lower and higher loads equated by volume load on parallel back squat performance in resistance-trained men. As our main findings indicate, CA protocols involving lower and higher loads did not provide additional performance enhancement to multiple-set back squat performance compared to a usual warm-up.
Newly compiled Tai Chi (Bafa Wubu) promotes lower extremity exercise: a preliminary cross sectional study
Lower extremity muscle activity analysis The WOF and LF depicted in this article involve a slow landing from heel off to toe-off, which results in significantly longer and more frequent activation of the plantar flexor and dorsiflexors at the ankle (Li & Law, 2017), as well as greater stimulation of the muscles of the lower extremities (Wang, Xu & Li, 2016). In a report by Uhlig et al.
Evidence for stronger discrimination between conspecific and heterospecific mating partners in sexual vs. asexual female freshwater snails
Raw mating data for all snails. Supplementary Table 1. Sexual mating frequency and duration data. Each row corresponds to mating data for one individual female. Mating frequency is given in number of mating attempts. Mating duration is given in seconds. Duration data is given both for total duration (summed duration of each mating attempt) and for average duration (summed duration of each mating attempt, divided by the number of mating attempts for that individual).
Stretching of Active Muscle Elicits Chronic Changes in Multiple Strain Risk Factors.
The muscle stretch intensity imposed during "flexibility" training influences the magnitude of joint range of motion (ROM) adaptation. Thus, stretching while the muscle is voluntarily activated was hypothesized to provide a greater stimulus than passive stretching. The effect of a 6-wk program of stretch imposed on an isometrically contracting muscle (i.e., qualitatively similar to isokinetic eccentric training) on muscle-tendon mechanics was therefore studied in 13 healthy human volunteers.
