Neuromuscular fatigue of the knee extensors during repeated maximal intensity intermittent-sprints on a cycle ergometer ABSTRACT:
Introduction: We studied the time course of neuromuscular fatigue during
maximal intensity intermittent-sprint cycling. Methods: Eight participants completed 10, 10s sprints interspersed with 180s of recovery. The power outputs were recorded for each sprint. Knee extensor maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) force, voluntary activation, and evoked contractile properties were recorded pre-sprint, post-sprint 5, and post-sprint 10. Results: Total work over the 10 sprints decreased significantly (P
