Journal ArticleDOI
A mechanism for increased contractile strength of human pennate muscle in response to strength training: changes in muscle architecture.

TL;DR: The present data suggest that the morphology, architecture and contractile capacity of human pennate muscle are interrelated, in vivo, and this interaction seems to include the specific adaptation responses evoked by intensive resistance training.
Journal ArticleDOI
Muscle performance during maximal isometric and dynamic contractions is influenced by the stiffness of the tendinous structures
TL;DR: Data indicate that muscle output in high-force isometric and dynamic muscle actions is positively related to the stiffness of the tendinous structures, possibly by means of a more effective force transmission from the contractile elements to the bone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Load‐displacement properties of the human triceps surae aponeurosis in vivo
TL;DR: The stiffness and Young's modulus exceeded those previously reported for the tibialis anterior tendon in vivo, but were similar to those obtained for various isolated mammalian and human tendons.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pathogenesis of tendinopathy: balancing the response to loading
TL;DR: Understanding how tendon tissue adapts to mechanical loading will help to unravel the pathogenesis of tendinopathy, which is characterized by pain during activity, localized tenderness upon palpation, swelling and impaired performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human tendon behaviour and adaptation, in vivo.
TL;DR: New experimental evidence shows that the metabolic activity in human tendon is remarkably high and this affords the tendon the ability to adapt to changing demands, and how tendons adapt to ageing, loading and unloading conditions is summarized.
