Sentence examples for maximum isometric strength from inspiring English sources

Maximum isometric strength is characterized by actions that do not alter the muscle length, i.e. there is no movement of the joint, and thus, it is static [58, 59].

Maximum isometric strength of the leg extensors (9.1% ± 11.2%, P=0.002) increased significantly in the WB-EMS group (P<0.001) and increased slightly (1.0% ± 8.1%, P=0.631) in the control group (Table 3).

Similar to what is observed in humans, the maximum isometric force (an indicator of muscle strength) decreases more than muscle mass during aging in mice, even when expressed relative to the cross-sectional area of the muscle (Faulkner et al., 1995; González and Delbono, 2001).

Therefore, we conclude that initially, the neuronal adaptations to submaximal strength training lead to an increase in maximum isometric force, but not to a significant increase in MT before the third measurement.
