METHODS FOR ASSESSING AND OPTIMIZING MUSCULAR PERFORMANCE INCLUDING A FREQUENCY BASED, AMPLITUDE ADJUSTED ROOT MEAN SQUARE PROTOCOL

摘要

A muscle assessment protocol can include: attaching one or more surface electromyometry (sEMG) sensors to the skin of a subject to be operably coupled with one or more muscles; operably coupling the one or more sEMG sensors to a computing system; performing the predetermined muscle activity of a muscle assessment protocol that includes a frequency-based, amplitude-adjusted root mean square protocol; monitoring/recording sEMG data of the one or more muscles during the predetermined muscle activity; and providing the sEMG data to the subject such that the subject can improve muscle performance for the predetermined muscle activity by using the sEMG data. The muscle activity includes static or dynamic muscle use. The predetermined muscle activity can be provided to the subject by the computing system.

1. A muscle assessment protocol comprising:
a computer system communicating with one or more surface electromyometry (sEMG) sensors attached to skin of a subject so as to be operably coupled with one or more muscles of the subject; the computing system monitoring and/or recording sEMG data of the one or more muscles during a predetermined muscle activity of the muscle assessment protocol that includes a frequency-based or amplitude-adjusted root mean square protocol; and the computing system providing the sEMG data to the subject such that the subject can improve muscle performance for the predetermined muscle activity by using the sEMG data.
