muscle activation technique definition
Muscle Activation Technique. By MAT developer, Greg Roskopf. MAT is a specific and unique process for evaluating an individual’s ability to develop efficient muscle contraction(s) by first measuring and comparing specific limb and trunk motions, as the human body tends to be symmetrical in its structure right side to left side.
The purpose of this study was to determine the patterns of muscle activation as outcome measures of the ground reaction forces during normal walking tasks using optical motion analysis capture system, instrumented treadmill and electromyography (EMG), respectively.
