During maximal contractions, the sum of forces exerted by homonymous muscles
unilaterally is typically higher than the sum of forces exerted by the same muscles bilaterally …

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) can be used to induce neural plasticity in the human
nervous system by pairing motor cortical activity with relevant afferent feedback, which can …

During isometric contractions, the net joint torque stability is modulated with the force
production phases, ie, increasing (IFP), holding (HFP), and decreasing force (DFP) phases …

Strength training (ST) induces corticomuscular adaptations leading to enhanced strength.
ST alters the agonist and antagonist muscle activations, which changes the motor control, ie …

The effect of visual feedback on enhancing isometric maximal voluntary contractions (MVC)
was evaluated. Twelve adults performed plantar-flexion and dorsi-flexion MVCs in 3 …

While muscle contraction in voluntary efforts has been widely investigated, little is known
about contraction during neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES). The aim of this study …

Background: How Achilles tendon mechanics and plantar flexion strength and torque
steadiness are altered in the intact leg of persons with trauma-related amputation is …

The ankle plantar flexor muscles are stronger in ankle dorsiflexion than plantar flexion.
However, heel lift is commonly observed during ankle plantar flexor strength testing, a …

We examined the effect of ankle joint fixation vs increased foot pressure (aiming to reduce
dynamometer-subject elasticity (DSE)) on the exerted moment during plantarflexion …

Objective To investigate ankle torque and steadiness in the intact leg of transtibial and
transfemoral unilateral amputees. Design Comparative study. Setting Medical rehabilitation …
