Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in surface EMG parameters during static and dynamic fatiguing contractions.
TL;DR: The results suggested that MFVC is affected by the metabolic state in the muscle and the changes in MDF cannot be explained only by that of MFVC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Muscle function in 164 men and women aged 20--84 yr.
Hiroshi Akima,Yutaka Kano,Yoshitaka Enomoto,Masao Ishizu,Morihiko Okada,Yoshie Oishi,Shigeru Katsuta,Shinya Kuno +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that muscle strength losses would be mainly due to a decline in Muscle mass in both genders, whereas age-related decline in muscle function in men may also be the result of neural factors, such as muscle recruitment and/or specific tension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fibre conduction velocity and fibre composition in human vastus lateralis
TL;DR: A linear correlation between conduction velocity and the relative area of FT fibres was statistically significant, and indicates that muscle fibre composition can be estimated from muscle fibre conduction Velocity measured noninvasively with surface electrodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Early phase adaptations of muscle use and strength to isokinetic training.
Hiroshi Akima,Hideyuki Takahashi,Shinya Kuno,Kazumi Masuda,Tadashi Masuda,Hitoshi Shimojo,Izumi Anno,Yuji Itai,Shigeru Katsuta +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that muscle strength increases after short periods of isokinetic resistance training without muscle hypertrophy would be due to increased muscle contractile activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of ageing on the total number of muscle fibers and motoneurons of the tibialis anterior and soleus muscles in the rat.
TL;DR: In this article, the number of fast twitch muscle fibers was decreased at age 65 weeks, while the numbers of slow twitch fibers and of alpha motoneurons were decreased only later, at age 135 weeks.
