Sample | Mmax (Nm)* | RTDk (Nm/s)* | RTDr (Nm/s) |
F | 325.8 ± 37.5 | 8.2 ± 1.3 | 1.6 ± 0.5 |
S | 190.1 ± 28.8 | 5.9 ± 0.2 | 1.16 ± 0.1 |
*Significant difference between F and S sample (p<0.05).
F, fast muscle fiber dominance athlete group; S, slow muscle fiber dominance athlete group.
Mmax, maximal isometric torque; RTDk, rate of tension development at contraction; RTDr, rate of tension development at release.
