## Abstract In this study, the forceβlength characteristics of the in vivo medial (GM) and lateral (GL) heads of the human gastrocnemius muscle were estimated from measurements in eight healthy male subjects. This involved: 1) dynamometryβbased measurements of the moment generated during maximal is

## Abstract This study reports on the development of a model for studying skeletal muscle metabolism in humans using NMR spectroscopy. Graded exercise was simulated using electrical stimulation in 10 healthy, fit subjects (mean VO~2max~ = 53 Β± 4 ml. kg^β1^ min^β1^). The effects of varying the stimu
## Abstract Changes in contractile rate of force development (RFD), measured within a short time interval from contraction initiation, were measured after a period of strength training that led to increases in muscle fascicle length but no measurable change in neuromuscular activity. The relationsh
