ABSTRACT
Introduction
Athletes are prone to local muscle fatigue due to high-intensity training and to long-term accumulation of musculoskeletal injuries. Musculoskeletal complications represent a large proportion of occupational health problems and, for this reason, have received increased attention from the sports industry. In this sense, studies on muscle fatigue should be intensified.
Objective
Verify muscle fatigue and injury involving the strain characteristics of lower limb joints in the eccentric and centripetal contraction of the jump.
Methods
A total of 691 individuals aged 20 to 40 years were selected. Fatigue was caused by active muscle contraction. The characteristic curves of active muscle contraction in different isometric, isotonic, and isokinetic training were analyzed. The degree of fatigue caused by three different sports states was tested by experimentation. The corresponding active muscle contraction characteristics were also analyzed. The potential for homeostasis at different ages was compared.
Results
The delay in recovery to fatigue is directly proportional to the athlete’s age. The return to post-exercise relief proportion from fatigue gradually decreases.
Conclusion
The experimental results showed that active muscle contraction could reduce exercise fatigue to some extent. This beneficial biochemical property of active muscle contraction is not found in people with advanced age. The findings have a guiding potential for the relief of sports fatigue.
