Specific force in human single muscle fibres with specific reference to ageing
The loss of muscle strength in the elderly is greater than the loss of muscle mass, termed specific force (SF) loss, and indicates that a decrease in muscle quality contributes to age-related muscular weakness. The present PhD thesis has studied age-related SF loss in human skeletal muscle using a s...
