DOI: 10.1007/s00421-022-04905-7
Abstract: When rate of force development is increased, neural drive increases. There is presently no accepted explanation for this effect. We propose and experimentally test the theory that a small increase in rate of force development… read more here.

DOI: 10.1123/ijspp.2024-0290
Abstract: PURPOSE Athletes who perform faster changes of direction (CODs) often exhibit superior leg strength, jumping performance, and linear sprint performance. However, these abilities only partially correlate with COD deficit (CODD), and relying solely on correlation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/1557988319828622
Abstract: This study investigates the relationship between peak force and rate of force development (RFD) obtained from maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) of the back muscles and the power produced during a loaded lifting task. A… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12872-021-01926-6
Abstract: Background Right ventricular dysfunction after CABG is associated with poor peri- and postoperative outcomes. We aimed to identify clinical and experimental predictors for preoperative inapparent right ventricular dysfunction and therefore hypothesized that reduced myofilament force… read more here.

DOI: 10.1249/jes.0000000000000306
Abstract: The rate of force development varies greatly across individuals. In the present review, we discuss the neuromechanical factors that explain this variability. The rate at which an individual can develop force during rapid voluntary contractions… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnhum.2021.654443
Abstract: Brief submaximal actions are important for wide range of functional movements. Until now, rate of force development and relaxation scaling factor (RFD-SF and RFR-SF) have been used for neuromuscular assessment using 100–120 isometric pulses which… read more here.

Drop Jumping on Sand Is Characterized by Lower Power, Higher Rate of Force Development and Larger Knee Joint Range of Motion
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology"
DOI: 10.3390/jfmk7010017
Abstract: Plyometric training on sand is suggested to result in advanced performance in vertical jumping. However, limited information exists concerning the biomechanics of drop jumps (DJ) on sand. The purpose of the study was to compare… read more here.
