Tóm tắt

AbstractExperiments were carried out to determine whether the location of electrodes has an effect on eccentric exercise–induced changes in surface electromyography (sEMG) variables in the biceps brachii muscle. sEMG signals were recorded with a grid of 64 electrodes before and up to 4 days post‐exercise. Root mean square (RMS) and mean power frequency (MNF) were calculated for: (1) each channel; (2) as an average of all channels; and (3) as an average of individual channel rows and columns. Mean muscle‐fiber conduction velocity (CV) was estimated similarly but was based on double‐differential channels. Maximal isometric voluntary torque decreased 21.3 ± 5.6% post‐exercise. The average sEMG variables decreased after the exercise and recovered 2 days (RMS and CV) or 4 days (MNF) post‐exercise. Site‐dependent changes were observed in sEMG variables. We conclude that site‐dependent changes in sEMG variables after eccentric exercise can be detected and are influenced in part by anatomical factors. Muscle Nerve, 2009
