Rapid Re-activation of Functionally Inhibited Hamstring Muscles via Real-Time EMG Visual Feedback in an Asymptomatic Masters Sprinter: A Case Report

Listen to this summary

This case report investigates whether real-time visual feedback (VFB) can effectively overcome functional neuromuscular inhibition in a 41-year-old masters sprinter experiencing hamstring activation failure. The authors found that VFB led to a significant increase in hamstring muscle activity, suggesting its potential as a neuro-cognitive intervention to enhance muscle output in aging athletes.
