Abstract:This study investigated the contribution of different forearm muscles, namely the flexor carpi ulnaris, extensor carpi radialis longus and brevis, extensor carpi ulnaris and flexor carpi radialis, during the dart thrower’s motion. Thirteen healthy participants were recruited. The forearm muscle activation patterns during the dart thrower’s motion were measured using surface electromyography. The average root mean square for the extensor carpi ulnaris was found to be the highest during the dart thrower’s motion… Show more
