    • The Acute Effects of Antagonist Stretching on Agonist Movement Economy

      abduction movement (agonist) economy. By specifically stretching the antagonist muscles there would be a decrease in antagonist MTU stiffness while still maintaining agonist MTU stiffness. We then believe the agonist muscles would need to produce less energy to complete the leg abduction task, ultimately leading to an increase in movement economy.

The electrical muscle activity of eight right agonist/antagonist muscles (AD/PD, ESL/RA, ESI/EO, and GM/RF) were recorded using a surface EMG system (Myon m320RX; Myon, Switzerland) and processed using the integrated EMG to calculate a co-activation index (CoI) for the ascending and descending phases.

      Neural control of agonist and antagonist muscles (e.g., ankle dorsiflexors and plantar flexors) is organized recipro-cally, such that the activation of the agonist is accompanied by simultaneous inhibition of the antagonist muscle. During activation of the tibialis anterior (TA), H-reflexes from the antagonist muscle (soleus) are depressed [17].

      activity in the antagonist muscle begins very early in the course of a movement, often before the agonist has ceased firing. (This point is illustrated in the records published byHallett et al., 1975.) If the extremity has not started to move, or has moved very little, when the antagonist begins to fire, it seems unlikely that the firing is ...
