Absolute (radians s−1) and relative (lengths s−1) maximum velocity of shortening (Vmax) estimated from Hill's plots of isokinetic torque–velocity data in young adults and elderly individuals. The normalized Vmax values were obtained by dividing linear values of shortening velocity by fascicle length obtained by ultrasound
| Vmax absolute (rad s−1) | Vmax normalised (lengths s−1) | |
|---|---|---|
| Young | 5.73 | 1.98 |
| Elderly | 4.83 | 1.80 |
| % difference | −16.0 | −9.1 |
