The initial increases in force production with resistance training are thought to be primarily
underpinned by neural adaptations. This notion is firmly supported by evidence displaying …

The lack of systematic investigations on sex-related differences in motor unit behaviour
poses a challenge in understanding and optimizing health and performance in males and …

Noninvasive recordings of motor unit (MU) spike trains help us understand how the nervous
system controls movement and how it adapts to various physiological conditions. The …

Nervous system deterioration is a primary driver of age‐related motor impairment. The motor
neurones, which act as the interface between the central nervous system and the muscles …

Ageing is a natural process causing alterations in the neuromuscular system, which
contributes to reduced quality of life. Motor unit (MU) contributes to weakness, but the …

Serotonergic neuromodulation contributes to enhanced voluntary muscle activation.
However, it is not known how the likely motoneurone receptor candidate (5‐HT2) influences …

Sex-related disparities in force production of humans have been widely observed. Previous
literature has attributed differences in peripheral traits, such as muscle size, to explain these …

Persistent inward currents (PICs) are crucial for initiation, acceleration, and maintenance of
motoneuron firing. As PICs are highly sensitive to synaptic inhibition and facilitated by …

Objective. All motor commands flow through motoneurons, which entrain control of their
innervated muscle fibers, forming a motor unit (MU). Owing to the high fidelity of action …

This study tested whether estimates of persistent inward currents (PICs) in the human
plantar flexors would increase with the level of voluntary drive. High-density surface …
