Contrary to what hypertrophy researchers assume, muscle damage does not happen during exercise because of tearing forces. Instead, it happens post-workout by means of biochemical processes (calpains and inflammation).

New study led by Shiqin Chen where we investigate the relationship between muscle (co)activation time-series and lower extremity stiffness -a key component of running economy- as well as joint stiffness during running Key findings in the figure + comments. Link also in comments

INFOGRAPHIC: Muscle activity during running 🏃‍♀️ Peak loads on the calf, hamstrings and hip flexors will increase significantly with faster running and sprinting.

In this study (miller et al., 2021), researchers found that elite sprinters had larger hip extensors than sub-elite sprinters. Glute max size alone explained 43.8% of sprint performance differences, while total hip extensor volume explained 47.5%. It’s an interesting finding,
