AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of strength and endurance training on the conduction velocity of vastus medialis obliquus and lateralis single motor units during voluntary sustained knee extensions. METHODS: Seventeen sedentary healthy men (age, mean ± SD, 26.3 ± 3.9 yr) were randomly assigned to one of 2 groups: strength training (ST, n= 8) or endurance training (ET, n= 9). Convention...
Aim: Strength and endurance training are two common forms of motor training which induce distinct adaptive neuromuscular responses. There is a considerable debate on the neural adaptations which accompany strength training and little is known about the effects of endurance training. This study investigated changes in motor output and motor unit behavior following 6 weeks of either strength or endurance training...
