The dominance of fatigue or post-activation potentiation (PAP) depends on the type, intensity, and duration of exercise and duration of the recovery before contractility is tested. Although the decrease in PAP magnitude with decreased exercise intensity is well documented (Vandervoort et al., 1983;...
