Mechanical work (SSC condition/pure shortening condition) |
Contraction modalities (Conclusion of the article) |
| Fortuna, 2017 |
9% -26% higher compared to pure shortening contraction |
Dependent on the shortening velocity and the delay between the stretch and the shortening |
| Fortuna, 2018 |
33% -46% higher compared to pure shortening contraction |
Independent of stretch velocity |
| Hahn, 2018 |
11,6% higher compared to pure shortening contraction |
|
| Seiberl, 2015 |
36%-39% higher compared to pure shortening contraction |
Mechanical work always lower at corresponding pure shortening contraction compared to SSC |
