Effects of prestretch intensity on mechanical efficiency of positive work and on elastic behavior of skeletal muscle in stretch-shortening cycle exercise.

Abstract:

:Mechanical efficiency of positive work (eta+) and elastic behavior of human skeletal muscles were investigated on a special sledge apparatus which allowed the use of the normal stretch-shortening cycle exercises. Twenty-five young men were investigated in a total of 92 exercise situations, in which the intensity of the prestretch (eccentric contraction) was different, but the shortening phase (concentric contraction) was kept constant in all conditions. The results demonstrated that eta+ was on the average 35.8% +/- 6.4% and correlated positively with the prestretch intensity (r = 0.413; P less than 0.001), reaching a highest individual value of 51.5%. Estimation performed on the elastic characteristics of the leg extensor muscles confirmed an earlier suggestion that the pure muscle elasticity plays an important role in potentiating performance in stretch-shortening cycle exercises. The analysis of the myoelectrical activity of the leg extensor muscles showed that the nervous system plays an essential role in regulating muscle stiffness and thus utilization of muscle elasticity in ballistic exercises.
