Q

Describe the collagen tissue formation process?

69
Q

How does eccentric loading prior to concentric contraction effect performance?

A
  1. takes of collagen slack allow for greater effiecency of force transmission
  2. creates a functionally longer tendon and shorter muscle belly
    - shorter muscle belly allows for a slower concentric contraction
    - slower concentric contractions generate greater peak torque
70
Q

Wow can you create more energy from the tone region of a tendon?

A

Make the tendon thicker

71
Q

How will immobilization of a week effect the stress strain curve of collagen?

A

since you loose GAG you will have a decrease in the toe region

72
Q

how doe the viscoelastic properties of collagen effect its performance?
