Sarcomere length of the vastus intermedius with the knee joint angle change

Abstract The force–length relation of the skeletal muscles is an important factor influencing the joint torque at a given joint angle. We aimed to clarify the relationship between the resting sarcomere length and knee joint angle in the vastus intermedius (VI) and to compare it with that of the vast...
