Comparison of Muscle Onset Activation Sequences between a Golf or Tennis Swing and Common Training Exercises Using Surface Electromyography: A Pilot Study

Figure 6

Example of one tennis athlete’s averaged muscle onset activation sequence for the forehand tennis swing, wood chop cable pull, medicine ball wall throw, and Turning Point 4.0 Rotational Platform. Each bar represents the average onset and duration of each subject’s individual muscle activation. (-axis: time (msec)). -axis: muscles (e.g., L_EO = left external oblique).
