Temporal and spatial muscle synergy features and its neural origins during sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit tasks
… perform the transition tasks normally. Several muscles act together to achieve these motions and the inability to perform these daily life tasks, therefore, present the need to understand why they are important and what is the role of muscle synergy in the performance of such tasks. Reduced …

Development of a Novel Intervention Guided by Neuromuscular Control Principles for Upper Extremity Neurorehabilitation after Stroke
… post-stroke. In recent years, the concept of muscle synergy, here defined as a consistent ratio of co-activation of muscle across multiple muscles required to perform a motor task, has been effectively applied to characterize intermuscular coordination in neurologically intact individuals and …

EMG-EMG Coherence Analysis of Elbow and Shoulder Muscles
… of a few intermuscular coordination patterns, or muscle synergies. Muscle synergy can be defined as a relatively fixed pattern of activation across a set of muscles. The neural mechanisms underlying muscle synergies remain to be fairly unknown. Through a muscle synergy study [13], co-activation in …

Comparison of muscle synergies elicited from transcranial meganetic stimulation (tms) and voluntary movements
… refers to as the degree of freedom problem. The Muscle Synergy Hypothesis is one of the hypotheses that aim to resolve the problem which defines that a muscle synergy is a combination of a small set of muscles activated at different levels, serving as a building block that constructs motor …

THE INFLUENCE OF THE BACK FUNCTIONAL LINE ON LOWER EXTREMITY FRONTAL PLANE KINEMATICS AND KINEMATIC PREDICTORS OF LOADING DURING RUNNING
… of stiffness throughout stance phase. Upper body muscle activity and movement have a relationship to lower body dynamics; however, the literature has largely neglected their role during running. To date, biomechanical gait analysis has primarily focused on lower extremity mechanics and muscle …

Cortical Mechanisms of Human Pelvic Floor Muscle Synergies
… mechanisms that underlie human pelvic floor muscle synergies. Our first original experiment involved the study of 20 healthy male controls who were instructed to perform a variety of muscle tasks presumed to be associated with pelvic floor muscle synergies. Surface electromyography (EMG) …
