Reductionin the ability of muscle to
perform work because of impairment
anywhere along the command from
neuromuscular transmission to the
actin – myosin cross bridging

model assumes fatigue at
one or more sites which initiates
muscle contraction

Increased level of serotonin in brain
during exercise , peak at fatigue
Variables :
Amplitude
Frequency
Muscle fiber conduction velocity
09/19/09 33
Amplitude
increases during
submaximal exercise

Duringhigh force voluntary
contraction , RP increases
Providesmeasure to determine
changes at the motor cortex level
instead at the output site
