Integrated System for Monitoring Muscular States during Elbow Flexor Resistance Training in Bedridden Patients

Table 2

Work, maximal change in length, and average and maximal force of resistance force and muscles. We set the direction of elongation along the rope or muscle path as the positive direction of force and length change.
