Summary

Increases in explosive muscle strength (contractile RFD and impulse) were observed after heavy-resistance strength training, which could be explained by an enhanced neural drive, as evidenced by marked increases in EMG signal amplitude and rate of EMG rise in the early phase of muscle contraction.
