• describe muscle activation and contraction mechanisms
• explain the neural and muscle mechanical factors affecting the force production of skeletal muscle
• use biomechanical research methods such as force transducers, surface electromyography, muscle and nerve stimulation
• describe muscle activation and contraction mechanisms
• explain the neural and muscle mechanical factors affecting the force production of skeletal muscle
