Abstract(s)

In many movements, resistance (load) and velocity are inversely related to each other (Schilling et al., 2008). This relationship is often ascribed to skeletal muscle properties. Hill (1938) described a hyperbolic relationship (Hill’s curve) between force and velocity for isolated muscles. Many other researchers in muscle physiology as well as researchers in the more applied sciences used this association to describe and explain phenomena of muscle contraction. [...]
