Maximal Versus Non Maximal Muscular Exertions: A Study of Valid Measures Using Isokinetic Dynamometry
… the knee and shoulder joint musculature during isokinetic dynamometry-based testing. For development of the decision rules, healthy participants performed a series of maximal and non-maximal exertions at different testing velocities through a prescribed range of motion. Two different …

The effects of dietary creatine monohydrate supplementation and resistance training in older men
… fashion. Strength changes were assessed using isokinetic dynamometry. Both isokinetic and isometric strength were tested. lsokinetic tests were done at 60°, 180° and 240° per second and isometric tests at 45°, 60° and 75°. Endurance was measured at the end of each testing session by means of …

The effects of eccentric exercise on delayed onset muscle soreness, muscle function and free radical production
… by losses of muscle torque assessed by isokinetic dynamometry) was returning to pre-exercise levels, suggesting a temporal dissociation between ROS production and DOMS following downhill running. Circulating levels of ROS were still increasing 72 h post exercise so this study was unable …

Impact of static stretch and muscular contractions on force production within the human triceps surae muscle-tendon complex
… underpinning any changes. Techniques including isokinetic dynamometry, electromyography (EMG), sonography and motion analysis were used in three studies on recreationally active human volunteers (n=20). In the first study, three 60-s passive stretches was found to significantly reduce concentric …

Force Platforms for Isometric Hamstring Testing: Reliability, Validity and Practical Applications in Professional Soccer
… status to be assessed based on running loads. Isokinetic dynamometry (IKD) is the gold standard hamstring strength test (Toonstra & Mattacola, 2013). However, its cost, lack of portability and time taken to test deem it impractical for elite team sports. An isometric test using a handheld …

Investigation of plant protein functionality for food applications and health benefits
… function and recovery were assessed using Biodex isokinetic dynamometry and vertical jump tests, while gut microbiota-derived SCFAs were analyzed via gas chromatography flame ionization detection (GC-FID). Results showed that both plant and animal protein supplementation significantly improved …

ENHANCING EXERCISE PERFORMANCE THROUGH ISCHAEMIC PRECONDITIONING
… P=0.002 & 9.8 N.m-1 (6.1 to 13.5; P<0.005] isokinetic task were evident after IPC versus SHAM prior to eccentric exercise (EIMD). This was maintained throughout the (72-hour) muscle damage window. Lower cytokine (IL-6 and IL-1ra) were reported after IPC versus SHAM (P<0.002, respectively). …
