Abstract

In the field of competitive cycling, the importance of improving own pedaling skills has been recognized. In addition, highly trained cyclists argue that the appropriate motion of their upper limbs is needed to make the pedaling exercise more effect. Thus far, few studies have investigated the roles of the upper limb during pedaling exercise. Then, this study aims to experimentally investigate the roles of upper limb by measuring the handling motion. This paper describes the experimental environment, the signal processing method of sEMG to derive the muscle synergy, and the experimental results.
