Does fatigue influence joint-specific work and ground force production during the first steps of maximal accelerative running?

S. Vial, J. Cochrane Wilkie, M. Turner, M. Scanlan, A. J. Blazevich

This study examines how fatigue affects joint-specific work and ground force production during the first steps of maximal accelerative running, finding that athletes maintain acceleration rate through compensatory changes in joint function.

Fatigue does not increase limb asymmetry or induce proximal joint power shift during sprinting in habitual, multi-speed runners

S. Vial, J. C. Wilkie, M. Turner, A. J. Blazevich

This study examines how fatigue affects sprinting gait in runners, finding reduced inter-limb asymmetry and no shift in joint power from distal to proximal during fatigued sprinting.

INTRINSIC MOTOR NEURONE EXCITABILITY IS REDUCED IN SOLEUS AND TIBIALIS ANTERIOR OF OLDER ADULTS

L. B. R. Orssatto, D. N. Borg, A. J. Blazevich, R. L. Sakugawa, A. J. Shield, G. S. Trajano

This study shows older adults have reduced intrinsic motor neuron excitability in soleus and tibialis anterior muscles during low-force contractions, likely due to decreased persistent inward current amplitude.

Do Motoneurons Slow With Aging? A Systematic Review And Meta-Analysis With Meta-Regression

L. B. R. Orssatto, D. Borg, L. Pendrith, A. J. Shield, A. J. Blazevich, G. S. Trajano

This meta-analysis finds older adults have lower motor unit discharge rates than younger adults, with contraction intensity affecting the magnitude of this difference.

Passive muscle stretching reduces estimates of persistent inward current strength in soleus motor units

G. S. Trajano, J. L. Taylor, L. B. R. Orssatto, C. McNulty, A. J. Blazevich

This study shows that passive muscle stretching reduces persistent inward current (PIC) strength in soleus motor units, contributing to reduced force production during contraction.
