Two forms of isometric muscle function: Interpersonal motor task supports a distinction between a holding and a pushing isometric muscle action

This study investigates whether holding and pushing isometric muscle actions can be distinguished using objective parameters in an interpersonal setting, finding distinct mechanical oscillation patterns in abdominal muscles during holding.

Mechanotendography: description and evaluation of a new method for investigating the physiological mechanical oscillations of tendons using a piezo-based measurement system

This paper introduces and evaluates a piezo-based method for measuring tendon mechanical oscillations, showing high reliability and validity for musculoskeletal research.
