Effects of cross-bridge compliance on the force-velocity relationship and muscle power output.

Effects of cross-bridge compliance on the force-velocity relationship and muscle power output.

Muscles produce force and power by utilizing chemical energy through ATP hydrolysis. During concentric contractions (shortening), muscles generate less force compared to isometric contractions, but consume greater amounts of energy as shortening velocity increases. Conversely, more force is generate...
