electromyogram (EMG). Recording of electrical activity of a muscle associated with contraction and relaxation. This is obtained by placing a microelectrode within a muscle.The recording process is called electro-myography. diagnostic test that records the electrical activity of muscles. In the test, small electrodes are placed on or in the skin; the patterns of electrical activity are projected on a screen or over a loudspeaker. This procedure is used to test for muscle disorders, including muscular dystrophy. Mentioned in: Myopathies.
Now we will use a slightly more sophisticated tool to measure muscle fatigue. Obtain netbook, a Go!link, and a Hand Dynomameter. 2. Plug in your Go!link to a usb port, and then the Hand Dynamometer to the Go!link.our partner should count how many squeezes you get every 10 seconds over a one-minute time period. The third person in your group should record these numbers in the chart below. 3. Once the first person is done. Switch roles and record data for each group member below.
