A University of Nebraska–Lincoln engineering team is another step closer to developing soft robotics and wearable systems ...

Incorporating functional movement into your regimen can improve ... recruit their corresponding synergist muscles (the assistors that support them) and are the very definition of "compound." ...

because they are synergist muscles helping to perform movements like the chest fly and bench press. In this way, you end up training many of the same body parts multiple days in a row, which may ...

This synergistic interaction ... the limitations of existing artificial muscles. "Utilizing multi-stimulation methods, including laser heating and magnetic field control, we can remotely execute ...

The antagonist will always stretch and lengthen to help create movement as another shortens. What are synergist muscles? Before we dive in, there are a few key terms worth knowing. First ...

The butterfly chest exercise tones the synergist muscles (synergist muscle is a helper muscle that works alongside the main muscle (agonist) to produce a specific movement) and also improves chest ...

NMF is employed to analyze the duration multi-muscle weight coefficient matrix (DMWCM) during synergistic movements, and four electromyographic (EMG) signal features in time, frequency, and complexity ...

Specifically, we introduce co-information as a measure of the task-relevance of muscle interactions and use it to categorise such interactions as task-irrelevant (present across tasks), redundant ...

This movement requires synergistic actions among the extensor and flexor muscles of the trunk and knees. Studies 1,6,7 that analyzed electromyographic patterns during the STS task in healthy young ...

The scalenes are synergist (helper) muscles to the SCM. They assist the SCM in turning and tilting both the head and neck. The SCM becomes chronically shortened in cases of torticollis. Torticollis is ...
