Rate of force development (RFD) refers to the ability of the neuromuscular system to
increase contractile force from a low or resting level when muscle activation is performed as …

Rapid force capacity, identified by rate of rise in contractile force at the onset of contraction,
ie, the rate of force development (RFD), has been considered an important neuromuscular …

Ballistic performances are determined by both the maximal lower limb power output (P max)
and their individual force-velocity (Fv) mechanical profile, especially the Fv imbalance (FV …

Background Muscular rate of force development (RFD) is positively influenced by resistance
training. However, the effects of movement patterns and velocities of training exercises are …

Background A hand-held dynamometer (HHD) offers a reliable and valid method to quantify
quadriceps strength in a clinical environment. While measures of peak strength provide …

Background In this study, we investigated the effects of resistance training protocols with
different loads on muscle hypertrophy and strength. Methods Twenty-one participants were …

Abstract Thompson, BJ, Stock, MS, Shields, JE, Luera, MJ, Munayer, IK, Mota, JA, Carrillo,
EC, and Olinghouse, KD. Barbell deadlift training increases the rate of torque development …

Background Despite its apparent functional importance, there is a general lack of data
regarding the time-related changes in explosive strength and the corresponding side-to-side …

This study examines the effects of two strength training (ST) programs, one based on mean
propulsive velocity (MPV) and another under the traditional method, the% one-repetition …

Purpose To compare the effects of two different resistance training programs, high intensity
(INT) and high volume (VOL), on changes in isometric force (FRC), rate of force …
