Summary:
The paper deals with the most frequent possibilities of application of surface electromyography. It
summarizes above all biomechanical and kinesiological applications: observation of the timing of
muscle involvement, magnitude of muscle activation and fatigue. Investigation of muscular function
makes analysis of human motion possible. It is however necessary to respect the influence of further
factors which participate in the development of the signal. The investigation draws attention to the
limited possibilities and perspectives of application in conjunction with the investigation and evaluation of neuromuscular disorders.
Key words:
electromyography, strength, muscle, timing, fatigue
