Muscle Synergies in Running: A Review
Analysis
Key Takeaways
- •Muscle synergy analysis is a valuable tool for studying neuromuscular control in running.
- •Synergy patterns are relatively stable, but their characteristics are adaptable to various factors.
- •Standardization of methods and integration of multi-source data are crucial for future research.
- •The paper highlights the potential of this research for sports biomechanics, athletic training, and rehabilitation.
“The number and basic structure of lower-limb synergies during running are relatively stable, whereas spatial muscle weightings and motor primitives are highly plastic and sensitive to task demands, fatigue, and pathology.”
