Dear Biomch-l'ers
When a human skeletal muscle is fully activated and allowed to contract
freely (without any resistance), how could one estimate the change in
length (shortening length) ?
Is it possible to estimate this value for a specific muscle by some
percent of the muscle length ?
Any comment would be appreciated.
Thanks,
