Abstract
The purpose of this study was to 1) examine single cell contractile mechanics of skeletal muscle before and after 12 wk of progressive resistance training (PRT) in older women (n = 7; 74 +/- 2 yr) and 2) to compare these results to our previously completed single cell PRT work with older men (n = 7; 74 +/- 2 yr) (Trappe S, Williamson D, Godard M, Porter D, Rowden G, and Costill D. J Applied Physiol 89:143--152, 2000). Knee extensor PRT was...
