Study Summary
This study will compare the effects of high-speed power resistance training or plyometric jump training on muscle stiffness, jump performance and measures of daily activity in older adults living independently in the community.
Primary Outcome
For muscle stiffness, three images will be taken in the longitudinal view in shear wave mode to assess stiffness of the vastus lateralis, vastus medialis and rectus femoris muscles. Color-coded images with a scale from blue (soft) to red (hard) will then be generated depending on muscle stiffness. Imaging software will then convert the wave speed data into a stiffness measures called kilopascals.
