Abstract:The purpose of this research was to expand understanding of the energetics of skeletal muscle contractions through modeling the total ATP turnover (totATPto = aerobic + anaerobic) of different muscle fibre types and motor units. Contraction conditions involved varied motor unit recruitment for a single contraction, in addition to 3 min of repeated contractions across varying contraction frequencies (0.5 to 2.0 Hz in 0.5 Hz increments) and fractional motor unit recruitment (0.5 to 0.95 in 0.05 increments).
