Distinct Neural Drives along the Semitendinosus Muscle
There were distinct differences in MU discharge characteristics between the proximal and the distal compartments of ST across its operating range of muscle lengths, and each compartment received a relatively distinct neural drive. These findings emphasize the importance of recognizing differences in neural control of the ST compartments to guide related interventions and to inform rehabilitation strategies.
