Neuromuscular adaptations induced by long-term motor skill training
Beschreibung:
This thesis addresses the question of whether spinal cord’s monosynaptic circuitry can be altered due to long-term motor skill acquisition. We researched functional organization and skill-related adaptation in muscle spindle feedback distribution. In study 1 we examined reciprocal inhibition of lower limb’s extensor and flexor muscles and the underlying reflex arcs. After examining the interplay of lower limbs’ extensor and flexor muscles, we aimed to investigate the effects of long-term motor skill training in a group of martial artists (study 2) and Yoga practitioners (study 3), compared ...
