Adaptations in corticospinal excitability and inhibition are not spatially confined to the agonist muscle following strength training
(Springer, 2017)Purpose We used transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to determine the corticospinal responses from an agonist and synergist muscle following strength training of the right elbow flexors. Methods Motor-evoked potentials ... -
Ipsilateral corticomotor responses are confined to the homologous muscle following cross-education of muscular strength
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2018)Cross-education of strength occurs when strength-training 1 limb increases the strength of the untrained limb and is restricted to the untrained homologous muscle. Cortical circuits located ipsilateral to the trained limb ...
