Contribution of skeletal muscle activity to the natural history of acceleration-induced loss of consciousness (G-LOC)

G-LOC and the ensuing incapacitation represents an ever present threat to modern fighter aircraft and aviators. Of the techniques developed to combat gravitational induced stress, particularly such stress acting along the head to foot axis (+G z), a variety of straining maneuvers have assumed promin...
