Eleven years ago there was a seminal symposium on muscle fatigue held in London. The published proceedings (Ciba Foundation Symposium 82 - Human muscle fatigue: physiological mechanisms, Pitman, London, 1981) served as an important 'state-of-the-art' reference. In the intervening period there have been many developments with respect to our understanding of fatigue of the motor output, including processes located in the skeletal muscle fibres themselves as well as problems related to various aspects of (moto) neural muscle control.
