The quasi-linear variation of power with ATP hydrolysis is observed experimentally, as the contraction is being activated at the level of actinomyocin activity. The kinetic approach suggests that the muscle power output varies hyperbolically with the ADP concentration. Both the ADP control and the Gibbs energy of ATP hydrolysis control are similar, and when muscle power is varied voluntarily, muscle energetics may be represented by the linear flow-force relationships.

Most studies of muscle energetics in vitro have utilized glucose as substrate. Under in vivo conditions the utilization of metabolic substrate is presumably more varied. Chace and Odessey (1981) showed that metabolism in rabbit aorta can be sustained by fatty acids, ketone bodies, and amino acids, as well as carbohy-... 

Hz. The recovery of PCr was slower in control subjects following electrical stimulation compared with the rate following voluntary exercise. However, the recovery rate of PCr and calculated muscle maximum oxidative capacity in patients with spinal chord injury were 52% of those following electrical stimulation in controls. The energy cost of contraction and skeletal muscle energetics in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease have been...
