We examined the role of agonist and antagonist muscles in explaining the isometric knee extension torque variation with changes in hip joint angle. METHOD: Maximum voluntary isometric knee extension torque (joint MVC) was recorded in seated and supine positions from nine healthy males (30.2±7.7...

Examination of the effects of fatigue on antagonist function can provide information on the role of antagonists in limiting the resultant joint moment and stabilizing the knee. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the moment, agonist and antagonist electromyographic (EMG) activity level...
The variability in the torqueangle curve was not affected by the activation level of agonist and antagonist muscles and the moment arm length. The ratio of torque at 100° compared to that at 50° was significantly (r2 = 18–23%) correlated to the maximal elongation and strain (to initial...

Outputs of the EMG-driven model were: (1) net concentric knee extension torque (summation of the torque computed from EMG activity of the quadriceps and hamstrings), (2) agonist torque (torque calculated from the EMG activity of the quadriceps), and (3) antagonist torque (torque calculated ...
