When a muscle reaches a point where it cannot shorten any farther it is has reached active insufficiency. A muscle becomes actively insufficient at the end of the range of motion that it produces.
Active insufficiency can also occur at a muscles lengthened state.
Either a shortened or lengthened state of a muscle can result in active insufficiency and thus reduction in force capabilities.
