Modulation of muscle characteristics was attempted through altering muscle stretch during resistance training. We hypothesized that stretch would enhance muscle responses.
Participants trained for 8 weeks, loading the quadriceps in a shortened (SL, 0-50° knee flexion; n=10) or lengthened (LL, 40-90°; n=11) position, followed by 4 weeks of detraining. Controls (CON; n=10) were untrained. Quadriceps strength, vastus lateralis architecture, anatomical cross-sectional area (aCSA), and serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) were measured at weeks 0, 8, 10, and 12.
Increases in fascicle length (29±4% vs. 14±4%), distal aCSA (53±12% vs. 18±8%), strength (26±6% vs. 7±3%), and IGF-1 (31±6% vs. 7±6%) were greater in LL compared with SL muscles (P<0.05). No changes occurred in CON. Detraining decrements in strength and aCSA were greater in SL than LL muscles (P<0.05).
Enhanced muscle in vivo (and somewhat IGF-1) adaptations to resistance training are concurrent with muscle stretch, which warrants its inclusion within training.
通过改变抗阻训练中肌肉的拉伸来调节肌肉特性。我们假设拉伸会增强肌肉反应。
参与者接受 8 周的训练,在缩短(SL,0-50°膝关节屈曲;n=10)或延长(LL,40-90°;n=11)位置加载股四头肌,然后进行 4 周的脱训。对照组(CON;n=10)未接受训练。在第 0、8、10 和 12 周时测量股四头肌力量、股外侧肌结构、解剖横截面积(aCSA)和血清胰岛素样生长因子-1(IGF-1)。
与 SL 肌肉相比,LL 肌肉的肌纤维长度增加(29±4% vs. 14±4%)、远端 aCSA(53±12% vs. 18±8%)、力量(26±6% vs. 7±3%)和 IGF-1(31±6% vs. 7±6%)增加更大(P<0.05)。CON 中没有发生变化。SL 肌肉的力量和 aCSA 的脱训下降大于 LL 肌肉(P<0.05)。
与阻力训练相关的肌肉在体内(和某些 IGF-1)适应性增强与肌肉拉伸同时发生,这使其成为训练的一部分是合理的。
