Chimera N, Falk B, Klentrou P, Sullivan P
Pediatr Exerc Sci . 2024 Aug; 36(4):181-191. PMID: 39209279
Traditionally, sports participation has been based on the chronological age of the individual with year of birth determining participation grouping. However, grouping by chronological age can result in individuals who...

Woods S, McKiel A, Herda T, Klentrou P, Holmes M, Gabriel D, et al.
Eur J Appl Physiol . 2024 May; 124(10):2965-2979. PMID: 38762834
Background: Motor unit (MU) activation during maximal contractions is lower in children compared with adults. Among adults, discrete MU activation differs, depending on the rate of contraction. We investigated the...

McKiel A, Woods S, Faragher M, Taylor G, Vandenboom R, Falk B
Eur J Appl Physiol . 2024 Apr; 124(9):2737-2747. PMID: 38652270
Background: Maximal conditioning contractions (CCs) can lead to the enhancement of evoked-twitch characteristics in human skeletal muscle. This phenomenon is termed post-activation potentiation (PAP). In the knee extensors, PAP is...

Woods S, McKiel A, Herda T, Klentrou P, Holmes M, Gabriel D, et al.
Appl Physiol Nutr Metab . 2024 Mar; 49(7):904-919. PMID: 38471135
Using global surface electromyography (sEMG) and the sEMG threshold it has been suggested that children activate their type-II motor unit (MU) to a lesser extent compared with adults. However, when...

Woods S, McKiel A, Herda T, Klentrou P, Holmes M, Gabriel D, et al.
Eur J Appl Physiol . 2024 Jan; 124(6):1933-1942. PMID: 38285213
Background: Lower activation of higher threshold (type-II) motor units (MUs) has been suggested in children compared with adults. We examined child-adult differences in discrete MU activation of the flexor carpi...

McKiel A, Woods S, Gabriel D, Vandenboom R, Falk B
Eur J Appl Physiol . 2023 Dec; 124(5):1561-1574. PMID: 38159138
Background: Post-activation potentiation (PAP) describes the enhancement of twitch torque following a conditioning contraction (CC) in skeletal muscle. In adults, PAP may be related to muscle fibre composition and is...

Dotan R, Woods S, Langille J, Falk B
Eur J Appl Physiol . 2023 Aug; 124(2):491-505. PMID: 37553549
Background: Only scant research has compared children's mean power frequency (MPF) to adults', with a clear overview still lacking. A significant obstacle has been MPF's high variability, which this study...

Mack D, Anzovino D, Sanderson M, Dotan R, Falk B
Pediatr Exerc Sci . 2023 Apr; 35(3):127-143. PMID: 37105544
Purpose: To document the extent to which AEs, resulting from intervention studies targeting muscle strengthening training (MST) in youth, are reported by researchers. Methods: Electronic databases (CINAHL, PubMed, SPORTDiscus, and...

Woods S, OMahoney C, McKiel A, Natale L, Falk B
J Electromyogr Kinesiol . 2022 Dec; 68:102727. PMID: 36525931
Antagonist coactivation is the simultaneous activation of agonist and antagonist muscles during a motor task. Age-related changes in coactivation may contribute to observed differences in muscle performance between children and...
