Fast and ballistic contractions involve greater neuromuscular power production in older adults during resistance exercise

Purpose:  Neuromuscular power is critical for healthy ageing. Conventional older adult resistance training (RT) guidelines typically recommend lifting slowly (2-s; CONV), whereas fast/explosive contractions performed either non-ballistically (FAST-NB) or ballistically (FAST-B, attempting to throw th...
