Sample size estimation revisited
Published in Journal of Sports Sciences (Ahead of Print, 2025)
The journal of Sports and Sciences will now require mandatory sample size estimation and justification www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... This is an excellent step that will improve scientific papers. I expect many other journals will follow.

Some of the big news we report: "...suggesting that upon activation, [I-band] titin stiffness increased ~2.2 to 3.1 times compared to the passive state"

After a long process, I will soon have a paper out at PNAS that explores the molecular mechanisms of residual force enhancement using some cool mouse models and small-angle Xray diffraction. It is not just about titin-based forces, per se, but they run the show π. Details OTW #titin #MuscleScience

Latest work from Brent Raiteri out in J Physiol! Residual force depression is NOT accurately predicted by muscle work (as usually assumed) but rather by the number of active muscle fibres during shortening. Funded by @dfg_public. Check out the OA-link:
