Peripheral-central interplay for fatiguing unresisted repetitive movements: a study using muscle ischaemia and M1 neuromodulation
Abstract Maximal-rate rhythmic repetitive movements cannot be sustained for very long, even if unresisted. Peripheral and central mechanisms of fatigue, such as the slowing of muscle relaxation and an increase in M1-GABAb inhibition, act alongside the reduction of maximal execution rates. However, m...

Abstract Maximal-rate rhythmic repetitive movements cannot be sustained for very long, even if unresisted.
