Prior to supplementation, subjects performed a pretest of maximal voluntary isometric contractions (MVICs), 2 sets of 50 maximal, bilateral, concentric isokinetic leg extensions separated by 2-min of rest, a post-test MVIC, as well as blood tests to determine serum hydroxyproline. (nutritionaloutlook.com)
Specifically, the percent decline in MVIC strength was less for the high-dose group following fatiguing tasks, and in a sub-sample of subjects in the upper 50th percentile of MVIC, the high-dose group was also more resistant to fatigue and retained the greater level of maximal muscular strength, compared to low-dose and placebo groups. (nutritionaloutlook.com)

Torque7
Is co-contraction responsible for the decline in maximal knee jointtorque in older males? (google.fr)
Maximal voluntary isometric contraction and evoked torque, muscle architecture, sensory discomfort (visual analog scale), and electromyographic activity were evaluated before and after the 6-week period. (humankinetics.com)
Thus, the present findings indicate that the individuals with lower maximal isometric joint torque per body weight demonstrate higher muscular activity levels during daily physical actions. (go.jp)
The twitch-interpolation technique evaluates central fatigue by assessing the level of central drive to the muscle (also called voluntary activation, VA). It involves a first percutaneous electric stimulation (PNS) of a nerve (or muscle motor point) during a maximal voluntary contraction (MVC), which normally increases the ongoing force-torque developed by the muscle (interpolated twitch). (nature.com)

Strength12
Stressor-induced increase in muscle fatigability of young men and women is predicted by strength but not voluntary activation. (cdc.gov)

Fatigue4
Muscle fatigue induced by sustained contractions may develop at the muscle but also at neural levels (i.e., central fatigue) 1 . (nature.com)
Remarkably, fatigue is task-dependent 3 , and in the case isometric activities the central origin of fatigue has been thoroughly studied. (nature.com)
The question to be answered is if the failure of central drive to the muscle is a responsible mechanism of fatigue induced by different activities than those involving isometric contractions. (nature.com)
