Correlation between muscle architecture and anaerobic power in athletes involved in different sports

Abstract Athletes cultivate highly developed muscles based on their sport category, creating a body shape that matches the characteristics of that sports category. We tested the significance of the correlation between muscle development characteristics and anaerobic power in athletes to build a data...
