Brain and muscle activity during fatiguing maximum-speed knee movement

<jats:p> The loss of knee movement rate with acute fatigue induced by high-speed movement is associated with both central and peripheral electrophysiological changes, such as a decrease in EEG power, increased agonist-antagonist cocontraction, and impaired brain-muscle coupling. These findings had not previously been reported for the knee joint, which shows functional and physiological differences compared with the existing findings for smaller upper limb joints. </jats:p>
