Conflicting Effects of Fatigue and Potentiation on Voluntary Force
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate whether a warm-up consisting of a series of maximal contractions would augment the force and activation of subsequent leg extensor contractions. Both voluntary and evoked isometric contractions were tested to determine the mechanisms underlying the response. Nine subjects were tested for twitch, tetanic, submaximal (30%), and maximal voluntary contractile (MVC) properties before and after (1, 5, 10, and 15 minutes) one to three 10-second MVCs. MVC force either did not change following 1-2 MVCs or was depressed at 10 and 15 minutes after 3 MVCs. MVC activation was decreased (4.4-6.9%) throughout recovery, whereas submaximal contractions were minimally affected. Although overall, twitches were potentiated (15.5-19.8%) posttest, 3 MVCs had significantly greater twitch potentiation than 1 or 2 MVCs at 5 and 10 minutes. Results suggest that voluntary and evoked contractions respond differently to prior 10-second MVCs. In the present study, a warm-up routine of 1-3 MVCs of a 10-second duration did not enhance subsequent voluntary performance.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
