Abstract

Introduction: Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) occurs after a bout of unaccustomed exercise, which has effects that peak approximately two days post exercise. Uncertainty exists about the mechanisms and the reliability of some measures of EIMD. A change in the active length-tension relationship of a muscle is often used as a determinant of EIMD, but can be difficult to measure in-vivo. The aim of this experiment was to determine if active length–tension curves could be accurately constructed from the triceps surae muscle group, in vivo, using a commercially available isokinetic dynamometer.
