Overview
The paper deals with the most frequent possibilities of application of surface electromyography. Itsummarizes above all biomechanical and kinesiological applications: observation of the timing ofmuscle involvement, magnitude of muscle activation and fatigue. Investigation of muscular functionmakes analysis of human motion possible. It is however necessary to respect the influence of furtherfactors which participate in the development of the signal. The investigation draws attention to thelimited possibilities and perspectives of application in conjunction with the investigation and evaluation of neuromuscular disorders.
Key words:
electromyography, strength, muscle, timing, fatigue
