Enhanced force production in old age is not a far stretch: an investigation of residual force enhancement and muscle architecture

In older adults, isometric force production is enhanced following a voluntary lengthening contraction when compared with isometric force produced at the same muscle length without a prior lengthening contraction. This phenomenon is termed residual force enhancement (RFE), and appears to be related t...
