In Vivo Sarcomere Lengths Become More Non-uniform upon Activation in Intact Whole Muscle
The sarcomere force-length relationship has been extensively used to predict muscle force potential. The common practice is to measure the mean sarcomere length (SL) in a relaxed muscle at a single location and at a given length, and this mean SL is assumed to represent the SLs at other locations ac...
