Findings in frog skeletal muscle warrant caution in extrapolation; leaves open relevance to mammalian cardiac mechanics.
The study characterizes the mechanical power output and speed of shortening during isotonic twitches in frog fast muscle fibers, showing that the rate of fall of power output is independent of tension.
C. J. Pennycuick (1964) studied this question.
