Contribution of neural and muscular factors to the short duration tension- developing capacity of skeletal muscle.
Neural and muscular factors contributing to the short duration tension-developing capacity of muscle are reviewed. Among the neural factors discussed are pyramidal tract activity, and the order, extent, frequency, and synchrony of motor unit recruitment. Muscular factors included within the review are muscle size, fiber type, and fiber number. Alterations in neural and muscular factors that accompany training are also presented as are the interactions between them.J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 1983;5(3):139-147.
