...Several research groups have entities, which likely lies closer to ensuring joint examined the effects of a training regimen consistintegrity (by increasing joint stiffness via elevated ing of eccentric contractions on the torque-velocity antagonist co-activation) in situations of uncertainty profile.[30,31,124,125] The studies reported a significant about the motor task and/or in unstable movement increase in the overall magnitude and shape of the conditions....

...Using data reported by Colsen et al [30] (see Figure 1) to estimate the power produced (i.e., torque x velocity) per contraction, the program was systematically progressed by increasing workload by 44% (Sessions 5-8 relative to 1-4) and 84% (Sessions 9-12 relative to 1-4). was eccentric (e.g., resisting an externally imposed load) and the second two sets were concentric, delivered at different criterion speeds....

...Thus, under these conditions, and in line with other reports [17,27], we suggest that the increase in EMG activity of the agonist muscle during maximal voluntary action after training, can be mediated by an increase in both number and discharge frequency of motor units, especially the fast motor units....
