Abstract
Unaccustomed eccentric exercise has been shown to impair muscle function, although little is known regarding this impairment on muscle power. The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in neuromuscular properties of the ankle dorsiflexors during and after an eccentric contraction task and throughout recovery in 21 (10 men, 11 women) recreationally active young adults (25.8+/-2.3 yr). All subjects performed 5 sets of 30 eccentric contractions at 80% of maximum isometric voluntary contraction (MVC) torque. Data were recorded at baseline, during the fatigue task, and for 30 min of recovery. There were no significant sex differences for all fatigue measures; thus data were pooled. After the fatigue task, MVC torque declined by 28% (P<0.05) and did not recover fully, and voluntary activation of the dorsiflexors, as assessed by the interpolated twitch technique, was near maximal (>99%) during and after the fatigue task (P>0.05). Peak twitch torque was reduced by 21% at 2 min of recovery and progressively decreased to 35% by 30 min (P<0.05). Low-frequency torque depression (10-to-50 Hz ratio) was present at 30 s of recovery, increased to 51% by 10 min, and did not recover fully (P<0.05). Velocity-dependent concentric power was reduced by 8% immediately after task termination and did not recover fully within 30 min (P<0.05). The main findings of an incomplete recovery of MVC torque, low-frequency torque depression, and shortening velocity indicate the presence of muscle damage, which may have altered excitation-contraction coupling and cross-bridge kinetics and reduced the number of functional sarcomeres in series, ultimately leading to velocity-dependent power loss.

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 it
