Muscle power

  • SHORT COMMUNICATION
    An exercise-induced improvement in isolated skeletal muscle contractility does not affect the performance-enhancing benefit of 70 µmol l−1 caffeine treatment
    Jason Tallis, Matthew F. Higgins, Val M. Cox, Michael J. Duncan, Rob S. James
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb190132 doi: 10.1242/jeb.190132 Published 5 November 2018

    Summary: The performance-enhancing effect of caffeine is not improved following exercise training as shown by assessing the effects of 70 µmol l−1 caffeine on muscle isolated from trained and untrained mice.

    Simulated work loops predict maximal human cycling power
    James C. Martin, Jennifer A. Nichols
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb180109 doi: 10.1242/jeb.180109 Published 10 July 2018

    Summary: Simulated maximized work loops closely predict experimental joint power during maximal voluntary cycling, demonstrating that, like birds and fish, humans are capable of maximizing muscle power.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Bluegill sunfish use high power outputs from axial muscles to generate powerful suction-feeding strikes
    Ariel L. Camp, Thomas J. Roberts, Elizabeth L. Brainerd
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb178160 doi: 10.1242/jeb.178160 Published 5 June 2018

    Summary: Although the sternohyoideus muscle shortens to generate small amounts of power, bluegill sunfish require large regions of axial musculature – operating at or near maximum power output – to power suction feeding.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Swim and fly: escape strategy in neustonic and planktonic copepods
    Leonid Svetlichny, Poul S. Larsen, Thomas Kiørboe
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb167262 doi: 10.1242/jeb.167262 Published 29 January 2018

    Summary: New analysis supported by high-speed videos explains how some copepods can perform out-of-water escape jumps when aided by well-timed kicks when penetrating the surface.
