Repeated sprint exercise affects contractile apparatus and force production of isolated human muscle fibers

The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of repeated sprint skiing on the contractile apparatus of single muscle fibers obtained from a group of elite cross-country skiers. We hypothesize that repeated high-intensity exercise in highly trained subjects will impair the contractile apparatus maximum force output and possibly Ca2+ sensitivity.
