Influence of a fatiguing exercise on lower limb electromyographic activities and co-contraction in overweight females during running
Overall, our findings indicate that both fatigue and being overweight result in running pattern differences, but these occur through different mechanisms at a neuromuscular level. Neuromuscular responses to fatigue during running in overweight adults and in normal weight adults can be evaluated together, in order to optimize the modality of treatment and rehabilitation processes in overweight adults to reduce and/or prevent the risk of running related injury.
