Abstract
Highlights
• Voluntary pedalling was studied in recreationally active individuals.
• Frequency (cadence) and pattern (tangential pedal force profile) was determined.
• Individuals performed 4 weeks of heavy hip extension or flexion strength training.
• Extension training reduced the cadence up to 17% and changed the tangential force.
• This alteration began already after 1 week of training.
