Non-localized postactivation performance enhancement (PAPE) effect in trained athletes: a pilot study Cuenca Fernández, Francisco Smith, Ian C Jordan, Matthew J MacIntosh, Brian R López Contreras, Gracia Arellano Colomina, Raúl Herzog, Walter Squat jump Voluntary contractions Ground reaction force Swimmers Fifteen trained athletes were assessed for postactivation performance enhancement (PAPE) of squat jumps (SJ) and power push-ups (PPU) following upper body activation, lower body activation, upper and lower body activation, and rest. SJ improved similarly across all four conditions. PPU could not be assessed. Since the protocol of SJ and PPU involved upper and lower body activation and caused PAPE in SJ, future work is required to determine if a non-localized PAPE effect exists. 2020-06-23T09:03:28Z 2020-06-23T09:03:28Z 2017 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Cuenca-Fernández, F., Smith, I.
