Force Length Question 1

[Timothy Caron]

What determines how much force can we produce at a certain ROM? Is it passive length? Is it active length? Or is simpler, just how many contractile units we have available in certain positions?

[Corey Hobbs]

I gotta go with the simple one – Contractile units.

[Timothy Caron]

Yeah thats my hunch too – without it we cannot produce force. There has to be something w/ Fascia and propogating forces from where more contractile units are available, as well momentum of fluid w/in the joint but simply put if we have contractile units we can produce force.
