Neuromuscular adaptations following prepubescent strength training.
TL;DR: The effects of 8 wk of resistance training on muscular strength, integrated EMG amplitude (IEMG), and arm anthropometrics of prepubescent youth were determined.
258
Relationship between quadriceps strength and rate of loading during gait in women.
TL;DR: The women in the sedentary group weighed more and had significantly less concentric and eccentric strength of the quadriceps and hamstrings relative to body weight than did those in the strength‐trained group, and demonstrated significantly higher rates of loading than those in that group.
171
Energy balance in highly trained female endurance runners.
TL;DR: Since body image and EI were related to body weight, the estimates of EI may be low due to underreporting particularly by the heavier athletes, who had a significant imbalance between EI and EE by the authors' measures.

Efficacy of blood flow-restricted, low-load resistance training in women with risk factors for symptomatic knee osteoarthritis.
TL;DR: To assess whether concurrent blood flow restriction (BFR) during low‐load resistance training is an efficacious and tolerable means of improving quadriceps strength and volume in women with risk factors for symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA).

Eccentric and Concentric Strength of the Shoulder and Arm Musculature in Collegiate Baseball Pitchers
TL;DR: The findings indicate that the internal rotator muscles were always stronger than the external Rotator muscles and that the concentric and eccentric external- to-internal strength ratios ranged from 62% to 81 %.
