A current ramp entails beginning at a low current (30 mA) and increasing in increments of 10 mA until a maximal muscle contraction is observed.

The spring stiffness measured in bullfrog tendons permitted less elastic energy storage than was predicted by a modelled, maximal muscle contraction.

Rest muscle tonus and maximal muscle contraction values [ μV] were evaluated.
