You've probably heard the term "activated" in reference to muscles before. In this video, well break down that term plus how we study that kind of thing -- electromyography, or EMG.

Hi, I’m Patrick. I’m a freelance science writer based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Athletic Training and a master’s in clinical exercise physiology. I used to work in the clinical setting as a certified athletic trainer, physical therapy aide, and a certified strength and conditioning specialist. After working in the clinical setting, I went back to school and became a teacher. The goal of my content is to help normal people, not just pre-med students, learn about the human body. That might mean explaining a topic from an anatomy class or exploring a topic from medical history.

Late comer here. What EMG do you recommend for basic clinical data collection ?

Why is the mvic percentage higher than 100%, and how can this be explained?

This reminds me of the 90s ab devices that used electricity to force muscles to activate.

Won't the bicep also act as a weak adducter in the fly? At least the short head should.

@Corporis 2 жыл бұрын

Yes it would! Bicep activation was just *so* much bigger in chest pec than bench press, even if it was aiding in adduction

@mggentry Ай бұрын

Bicep activation isn’t limiting the chest action in bench vs fly…. If it’s stablilizing your arms for a movement that better activates the pec in a fly, the pec is better activated. This can be why abnormally weaker stabilizing muscles can cause a pseudo-weakness of the more primary muscle Needle EMG could suss that out 😸
