| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We aimed to determine the effect of muscle fatigue on excitability level of each neural network between PMd, SMA, PPC and M1 connections and to quantify muscle fatigue levels to consolidate motor skill proficiency. We examined how muscle fatigue influences the neural network between them by TMS methods. Our results showed that muscle fatigue decreased the excitabilities of PMd- and SMA-M1 inhibitory connections and SICI in the motor cortex at the same time but did not change the excitability of PPC-M1 connection. We identified “optimal” muscle fatigue by showing the decreased SICI after some tasks of %MVC and contraction duration. We also examined whether the muscle fatigue could improve errors of muscle strength control in adaptive learning and typing speed in sequential learning. The results showed that muscle fatigue improved performance of both motor learning types. It is likely that optimal muscle fatigue consolidates motor skill proficiency in motor learning.
