Sex- and Mode-specific Responses to Eccentric Muscle Fatigue
Ethan C. Hill et al.
It has been suggested that women are less susceptible than men to muscle fatigue as a result of concentric and isometric muscle actions. Sex-related differences in muscle fatigue have been attributed to differences in muscle strength, the intensity of the fatiguing task, muscle blood flow, the velocity of contraction, and the muscle groups involved. The primary purpose of the present investigation was to examine sex-related differences as a result of fatiguing eccentric muscle actions on torque, muscle blood flow, electromyography, and mechanomyography.
