Abstract excerpt
In order to test the hypothesis that suboptimal activation of synergistic muscles explains the nonlinear nature of the interpolated twitch-voluntary torque relationship, we evaluated differences between stimulating a single muscle [biceps brachii (BB)] and two synergists simultaneously [BB and brachioradialis (BR)] on variables related to the estimation of voluntary activation. Ten subjects performed maximal and...
