Influence of Muscle Quality on the Differences in Strength From Slow to Fast Velocities in Career Firefighters.

Abstract:

:Gerstner, GR, Giuliani, HK, Mota, JA, and Ryan, ED. Influence of muscle quality on the differences in strength from slow to fast velocities in career firefighters. J Strength Cond Res 32(10): 2982-2986, 2018-The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between ultrasound-derived muscle quality and the %decrease in peak torque (PT) from slow to fast velocities in career firefighters. Thirty-nine male career firefighters (mean ± SD: age = 36.90 ± 6.87 years; stature = 180.93 ± 6.98 cm; mass = 109.30 ± 20.57 kg; and body mass index [BMI] = 33.24 ± 4.95 kg·m) performed 3 maximal concentric isokinetic contractions at a slow (1.05 rad·s) and fast (4.19 rad·s) velocity in random order. The velocity-related decrease in PT was calculated as the %decrease from 1.05 to 4.19 rad·s. Ultrasonography was used to determine subcutaneous fat corrected echo intensity (EI) to represent muscle quality before strength testing. The results indicated that there was a significant relationship between EI and %decrease in PT while adjusting for age (rpartial = 0.331, p = 0.042), and age and BMI (rpartial = 0.325, p = 0.050). These findings suggest that velocity-impaired isokinetic strength may be influenced by alterations in skeletal muscle tissue composition. Future studies are needed to determine whether the %decrease in PT is related to performance during critical firefighter tasks.
