Muscular and kinematic adaptations to fatiguing repetitive upper extremity work

Repetitive work is common in the modern workplace and the effects are often studied using fatigue protocols; however, there is evidence that the manner in which fatigue develops impacts the kinematic and muscular response to reduced physical capacity. The purpose of this study was to simultaneously evaluate muscular and kinematic adaptations during fatiguing, repetitive work until exhaustion. We measured muscle activity in 13 muscles in the …
