DOI: 10.1007/s00421-019-04123-8
Abstract: PurposeThe purpose of this study was to determine the effect of age on the cross-education of rapid and maximal contractile properties for the knee extensors.MethodsYoung (n = 10; age = 21.1 ± 1.7 years) and older (n = 10; age = 65.3 ± 8.3 years) males performed unilateral isokinetic… read more here.
