Neural pathways mediating cross education of motor function

KL Ruddy, RG Carson - Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2013 - frontiersin.org
Cross education is the process whereby training of one limb gives rise to enhancements in
the performance of the opposite, untrained limb. Despite interest in this phenomenon having …

Contralateral effects of unilateral strength and skill training: modified Delphi consensus to establish key aspects of cross-education

A Manca, T Hortobágyi, TJ Carroll, RM Enoka… - Sports Medicine, 2021 - Springer
Background Cross-education refers to increased motor output (ie, force generation, skill) of
the opposite, untrained limb following a period of unilateral exercise training. Despite …

Anodal-tDCS applied during unilateral strength training increases strength and corticospinal excitability in the untrained homologous muscle

AM Hendy, DJ Kidgell - Experimental brain research, 2014 - Springer
Evidence suggests that the cross-transfer of strength following unilateral training may be
modulated by increased corticospinal excitability of the ipsilateral primary motor cortex, due …
