💥Preprint update💥

Based on feedback from reviewers, we updated our work that aims to understand gain control in force output. In addition to human motor unit data, we’ve used in silico models of motoneuron firing in an attempt to understand scaling of force output

Now available online - our recent work on the effects of acute intermittent hypoxia on discharge behaviour of motor units during maximal efforts in iSCI. Great team effort with Babak Afsharipour, @AlesHolobar, @MilapSandhu0, and Zev Rymer!

Motor unit filters in EMG-based motor unit identification: from theory to practice

This paper "Long-Term Resistance Trained Human Muscles Have More Fibres, More Myofibrils and Tighter Myofilament Packing than Untrained" https://t.co/inVOWZ5eUI does not show that fibre splitting (hyperplasia) happens.

It shows that well-trained folks

@MattStockPhD @Jpbeausejour_ @UCF_Kinesiology My man! Nicely done!

[Jackson Fyfe, PhD @jacksonfyfe]

The nervous system is incredible.

After 4 weeks of elbow flexor training on both arms (3 sessions per week at 75% 1-RM), continuing to train only one arm (at 90% 1-RM) for the next 4 weeks:

- Further increased strength of the other (non-trained) elbow flexors by 7.2%

- But was not sufficient to stop the loss of muscle size

This “cross-education” effect could be leveraged to slow detraining effects (of strength) after short-term training periods when continued training of one limb is not possible.

Welp, I finally finished the last dissertation data collection session! Time to break it all down and start getting ready to submit it! Can’t thank all those that helped with this process and all the participants than came in for training. On to the next project 😂

Our lab’s 1st attempt at a preprint, led by @Jpbeausejour_ We welcome feedback, especially if you conduct TMS research during active contractions. 🧠@UCF_CNSlab

[Tamara Valenčič @TamaraValencic]

🔹️Incredibly excited and proud to finally be able to share this paper with the world! ☺️🎉
🔹️We show that discharge rate adjustments of the vastii motor units during isometric contractions to failure depend on contraction intensity and modality.🤓
