Effects of elevated H(+) and P(i) on the contractile mechanics of skeletal muscle fibres from young and old men: implications for muscle fatigue in humans

KEY POINTS: The mechanisms responsible for the loss in muscle power and increased fatigability with ageing are unresolved. We show that the contractile mechanics of fibres from the vastus lateralis of old men were well‐preserved compared to those of young men, but the selective loss of fast myosin h...
