Alterations in muscular control when performing unfamiliar elbow flexion and extension movements
This work provides valuable insights into how muscle synergies and muscular coactivation complement each other. For an unfamiliar elbow flexion/extension task, the CNS primarily adapts by increasing the activation of all muscles acting on the joint to control position and movement velocity.
