This study examined intermittent elbow flexion every 2 sec. for 1 mm. using various loads to study the properties of muscle power output and their relationship to peak power, defined as the maximum power output. 18 young men performed intermittent explosive elbow flexion (30 times x min.1) using 30%, 40%, and 50% maximal voluntary contraction (MVC). The power outputs at 30% and 40% MVC slightly decreased (rate of decrease from peak power to average power output during the 26 to 30 contractions was about 5%). However, at 50% MVC, there was a marked decrease (33.6%). Power output for 8 contractions was significantly larger at 50% MVC than at 30% and 40% MVC, but after 9 contractions there was no significant difference between 40% and 50% MVC. In addition, after 27 contractions, 40% MVC was significantly larger than 30% and 50% MVC. That is, the tendency for power output to decrease differed among the various loads. The rate of decrease of power outputs showed no significant correlation with peak power for each load. Therefore, the rate of decrease of power output in intermittent contractions may help sustain the power output and cannot be evaluated as accurately as peak power. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
