ABSTRACT
Objective To document and analyze thepeak force and work during isokinetic pedaling at different linear speeds and the flexion-extension peak force ratio.Methods Thirty healthy adults were tested using the Legpress system of the IsoMED 2000 apparatus.Peak force,work and the flexion-extension peak force ratio were recorded and analyzed during isokinetic pedalingat 5 and 50 cm/s.Results The peak force applied and work done by the lower limbs were both significantly lowerwhen pedaling at 50 cm/s than at 5 cm/s.There was no significant difference in peak force or work between the left and right legs at 50 cm/s.The peak force ratio at 50 cm/s was significantly higher than at 5 cm/s.Conclusion The mechanical characteristics of the leg muscles during isokinetic pedaling vary greatly.It is advisable to choose different linear speeds or training modes accordingly.
