Abstract

SATO, K., NAKAMURA, R. and NAGASAKI, H. EMG Activities of the Biceps Brachii at Rapid Elbow Flexion during Passive Movements. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1983, 139 (2), 219-220-Seven normal subjects were asked to flex the left elbow as quickly as possible, responding to a tone stimulus under three conditions: 1) during passive flexion of the elbow, 2) during passive extension and 3) without passive movements. The EMG activities in passive movements reduced significantly during first 60 to 70msec, compared to the condition without passive movements.
