Neural drive originating in higher brain areas reaches exercising limb muscles through the
corticospinal‐motoneuronal pathway, which links the motor cortex and spinal …

Neural adaptations to resistance training (RT) and their correlation with muscle strength
remain partially understood. We conducted a systematic review and multivariate meta …

Mechanical vibration, applied to single or few muscles, can be a selective stimulus for
muscle spindles, able to modify neuromuscular management, inducing short and long-term …

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the increases in corticospinal excitability
(CSE) observed after one session of unilateral isometric strength training (ST) are related to …

This paper outlines a framework for strength training as a dynamical model of perceptual-
motor learning. We show, with emphasis on fixed-point attractor dynamics, that strength …

After musculoskeletal injuries, there is often a loss of corticospinal control. Current tendon
rehabilitation may not adequately address the corticospinal control of the muscle which may …

Short-interval intracortical inhibition (SICI) represents an inhibitory phenomenon acting at
the cortical level. However, SICI estimation is based on the amplitude of a motor-evoked …

Fatiguing exercise causes a reduction in motor drive to the muscle. Group III/IV muscle
afferent firing is thought to contribute to this process; however, the effect on corticospinal and …

The corticospinal responses to high-intensity and low-intensity strength-training of the upper
limb are modulated in an intensity-dependent manner. Whether an intensity-dependent …

The life of a sea squirt can demonstrate one of the most appropriate examples of the
importance of movement for the nervous system's health. When born, this little animal …
