Abstract

In order to measure the recovery of muscle strength after static contractions, strength tests must be performed at various times recovery. This is shown to be an invasive procedure, particularly at typically-recommended schedules of one measurement every 30 s or every 60 s, as the measurement interferes with the recovery process. A predictive equation is given to correct recovery data for this invasiveness.
