Sentence examples for contraction modality from inspiring English sources

During the post-contraction isometric fatigue test, the only parameters influenced by the contraction modality were the initial CV and the rate of change in CV which were 12%and3737% greater (p < 0.05) respectively after contractions performed with elastic resistance compared to free weights.

These findings confirm others for which contractions done with the use of elastic band seem to require greater muscle activation; moreover, they highlight a sort of "muscle conditioning" after that specific contraction modality which requires the use of faster motor units.

Different exercise set –ups (starting angle, contraction modality, hand position) and used methods for measuring muscle activity (electrode placement) have been used, making comparisons between results difficult.

Although, the type of contraction seems to play a role in muscle training, at present there are no studies available which have investigated the influence of the contraction modality on the recruitment of the posterior muscle chain.

The aim of this work was to assess neuromuscular modification induced by the use of two different muscle contraction modalities (elastic versus weight resistances) until exhaustion.

Initial values and rates of change of Average Rectified Value (ARV), MeaN power Frequency (MNF) and muscle fiber Conduction Velocity (CV) were calculated to compare the effects of the two contraction modalities.

Therefore the global posterior spine muscle chain will be evaluated during trunk and leg extensions, and during different contraction modalities (i.e. dynamic and dynamic-static).

In order to create specific exercise programs for both elite sportsmen and LBP patients, insights into the relative contribution of the different muscles of the posterior spine muscle chain in healthy persons, during different extension and contraction modalities, are required.

In a first condition, participants released the contraction immediately (impulsion modality); in a second condition, participants sustained the contraction so that the amplitude was steady for at least one second (sustained modality).

Our results also indicates that the modality of contraction (dynamic or dynamic-static) does not affect posterior muscle chain recruitment patterns.

In the sustained modality, the participant maintained the contraction after reaching the target so that the amplitude remained steady for one consecutive second.
