Repetitive isometric tetanic contractions (1/s) of the canine gastrocnemius-plantaris muscle were studied either at optimal length (Lo) or short length (Ls; ∼0.9 ⋅Lo), to determine the effects of initial length on mechanical and metabolic performance in situ. Respective averages of mechanical and metabolic variables were (Lovs.Ls, allP< 0.05) passive tension (preload) = 55 vs. 6 g/g, maximal active tetanic tension (Po) = 544 vs. 174 (0.38 ⋅ Po) g/g, maximal blood flow (Q˙) = 2.0 vs. 1.4 ml ⋅ min−1⋅ g−1, and maximal oxygen uptake (V˙o2) = 12 vs. 9 μmol ⋅ min−1⋅ g−1. Tension atLodecreased to 0.64 ⋅ Poover 20 min of repetitive contractions, demonstrating fatigue; there were no significant changes in tension atLs. In separate muscles contracting atLo,Q˙ was set to that measured atLs(1.1 ml ⋅ min−1⋅ g−1), resulting in decreased V˙o2(7 μmol ⋅ min−1⋅ g−1), and rapid fatigue, to 0.44 ⋅ Po. These data demonstrate that1) muscles atLohave higher Q˙ andV˙o2values than those atLs;2) fatigue occurs atLowith highV˙o2, adjusting metabolic demand (tension output) to match supply; and3) the lack of fatigue atLswith lower tension, Q˙, andV˙o2suggests adequate matching of metabolic demand, set low by short muscle length, with supply optimized by low preload. These differences in tension andV˙o2betweenLoandLsgroups indicate that muscles contracting isometrically at initial lengths shorter thanLoare working under submaximal conditions.
