Due to the variations in morphological and architectural characteristics of fibers within a
skeletal muscle, regions of a muscle may be differently affected by eccentric exercise …

To investigate the functional significance of force fluctuations during voluntary contraction
with a select muscle group, we examined the association between force fluctuations during …

Fingertip force control requires fine coordination of multiple hand muscles within and across
the digits. While the modulation of neural drive to hand muscles as a function of force has …

Introduction: In this study we investigated the effect of knee position on quadriceps force
steadiness and activation strategies. Methods: Quadriceps force steadiness was evaluated …

Alterations in motor unit behavior associated with aging deteriorate fine or gross motor
performance. In human aging, the alterations depend on muscles and the habitual activity of …

The association of expertness in specific motor activities with a higher ability to sustain a
constant application of force, regardless of muscle length, has been hypothesized. Ten …

Visual feedback is essential when minimizing force fluctuations. Varying degrees of
somatotopic organization have been shown in different regions of the brain for the upper …

Purpose The aims of the study were to examine the specificity of the association between
steadiness and a functional task and to assess the influence of practicing a functional task …

The aim of the study was to evaluate, by an electromyographic (EMG) and
mechanomyographic (MMG) combined approach, whether years of specific climbing activity …

Visual feedback can influence the force output by changing the power in frequencies below
1 Hz. However, it remains unknown whether visual guidance can help an individual reduce …
