..., so that maintaining a constant contraction frequency and work per stroke should result in an increased swimming speed. However, increasing speed causes exponential increases in drag, thereby reducing mechanical versus muscle efficiency. To investigate these competing factors, we have developed...

... with respirometrically measured total power input, we determined that muscle efficiency rises with increasing force production to a maximum of 10 %. This change in efficiency may reflect either increased crossbridge activation or a favorable strain regime during the production of peak forces. * Author...
