Cuban tree frogs pack more muscle fibers into their plantaris longus muscle and the muscle-tendon unit is stiffer, allowing them to store more energy than other frogs and toads to power their exceptional leaps https://t.co/j7qoHomE7o

@ScottFBrennan @AlanDeAsha1 I'd be in all sorts. Plus it took me 5 years to finish.

@SKessler_UQ Thanks Sarah! Very lucky to have had exceptional advisors and supportive peers like yourself! @andy_cress @GlenLichtwark

[YASUhide Yoshitake @Yasports]

I'm very happy to announce that our new paper (@SoheiWashino is FA) is published on @ExpPhysiol .
The title is "Effects of inspiratory muscle strength and inspiratory resistance on neck inspiratory muscle activation during controlled inspirations" https://t.co/NxjdXZR8kN

The next installment in our work exploring the energetic function of the human foot. "The foot is more than a spring: human foot muscles perform work to adapt to the energetic requirements of locomotion"

@uqrwilk @SKessler_UQ @JayishniMaharaj Ross, you hit the nail on the head.

Two years ago, Scott Delp and team @Stanford allowed us to use their microendoscope to image human sarcomeres simultaneously with fascicle length (ultrasound). A huge thanks to all coauthors for contributing to this (pre-print) publication. https://t.co/dl7P2vOFyR 1/3
