Interpreting Signal Amplitudes in Surface Electromyography Studies in Sport and Rehabilitation Sciences

What this work gives Aellic

Acute EMG amplitude is NOT a validated predictor of hypertrophy; conclusions about long-term adaptation are “frequently unsubstantiated and unwarranted”. The muscle mapping may therefore only say which muscles a movement loads — not which one grows most. Note: year 2018 with volume 8 and a 2017 DOI stem is how this was actually published (eCollection 2017), not a typo.
