Impact of mechanical load on functional recovery after muscle reloading

Article Abstract:

This article examines the impact of altered mechanical load on the contractile properties and recovery of skeletal muscles in rats. Results indicate that reloading skeletal muscles after a period of limb suspension reduces isometric specific force and subsequent mechanical load removal impairs functional muscle recovery.

Effect of resistance training on muscle fatigue and recovery in intact rats

Article Abstract:

This article examines the benefits of a six-week resistance training program using electrical nerve stimulation on the plantar flexor muscles in rats. Results indicate that training the muscles using concentric and eccentric contractions caused an increase in isometric force, smaller force losses during fatigue, and improved muscle recovery.

Exercise training increases heat shock protein in skeletal muscle in old rats

Article Abstract:

This article examines the effects of endurance exercise training on concentrations of heat shock proteins in the striated muscle of aging rats. Findings indicate that endurance training results in similar increases in heat shock protein levels in young and old rats.
